Bob Hope USO at LAX
The Bob Hope USO at LAX is currently open Monday-Wednesday from 9:00 AM-5:00 PM and Thursday-Friday from 9:00
AM-10:00 PM.
Our mission for over 81 years is providing support to our active duty service members and their families (including
Active Reservists). Retirees and dependents of Retirees will be admitted on a “space available” basis. All guests
must present a boarding pass and/or confirmation of flight pending in order to enter. Anyone picking up guests or
dropping off guests, must park in a parking structure. We do not provide parking. Due to COVID-19 our Relax Room is
not available at this time.
Since 1941, around the country and around the world, the USO strengthens America’s military service members by
keeping them connected to family, home and country, throughout their service to the nation. Bob Hope USO is
not a government agency and relies entirely on contributions from patriotic Americans and philanthropic corporations
and organizations.
The Bob Hope USO at LAX is open to current members of the military and their dependent families
with proper military ID. In recognition of a career spent in the military, we also welcome military
retirees, who meet our admission requirements. This welcoming “safe haven” for troops and their families is
located on the ground floor of the historic LAX Theme Building on Center Way. The 7,100 square foot USO center
opened in summer 2018 and is serviced by nearly 300 volunteers.
More than 100,000 troops and their families, visit the Bob Hope USO at LAX annually.
