INGLEWOOD – The city of Inglewood announced plans to cancel this year’s MLK Celebration citing “public health and safety” as the reason.
Out of an abundance of caution, and in the interest of public health and safety, the City of Inglewood has cancelled the 2022 Dr. Martin Luther King Day Celebration. We look forward to resuming the celebration next year or when conditions allow and will continue to do our part to help our community stay safe, informed and connected.
City of Inglewood
During the Jan. 4 city council meeting, the city pressed ahead with plans for creating Event Zones related to the Feb. 13 Super Bowl.
Despite reports the NFL is seeking alternative venues to host the week long event, Mayor Butts went on the news to proclaim the event “will go on” in Inglewood, as planned.
The city is planning a three day concert series, in coordination with KJLH radio, however, they have yet to publicly announce the cancellation of those events.
LA County has resumed an indoor mask mandate through mid February, which coincides with Super Bowl, however, Inglewood residents can not enter City Hall without an appointment or to make payments.
Do you think the Super Bowl is going to take place in Inglewood?

Okay the only excuses available is the decision makers can’t grasp is simple that real people are dead. Hospitals are overwhelmed doesn’t matter until their family is impacted……
How sad the Billionaires seem to think money is more important than anything yes anything no matter how many fans/players get covid at their event(s)…….as long as there is money to be had.
Let’s think about this – completely vaccinated and boostered people can get covid! Yep these folks are “break through” cases in such number they have a name for them- “break through cases”. So even though we can not attend council meetings, or have the Martin Luther King Parade (held outdoors) in the “interest of public health”, it is somehow okay for thousands with private jets and big bucks to come into our community from far away places potentially bringing a virus variant as carriers to those of us who are not even permitted to gather in small numbers!
Who out there thinks the financial security grants immunity to covid or any other disease?
Hmmmmm, could it be possible the entire city council, the governor, and the NFL owners are simply trying to make certain that we know dollars are far more important to them than peoples lives?
