A little ahead of the upcoming 2024 Paris Olympics — and a lot ahead of the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics — Stan and Visit California have produced the must-see Gameday documentary, showcasing the very best of what the Golden State has to offer.

This celebration of sport, entertainment, and the famed Californian spirit’s intersection is hosted, produced, and directed by Aussie sports presenter Duncan McKenzie-McHarg.

The production’s multihyphenate has been joined by Aussie “tour guides” ranging from homegrown San Francisco 49ers punter Mitch Wishnowsky; 2016 NBA champion and current-day Melbourne United basketballer Matthew Dellavedova; to motorsport enthusiast and fellow presenter Kate Peck.

Together, they take audiences a “journey”  through game day experiences in seven unique California destinations/gamedays:

  • Los Angeles Rams
  • Sacramento Kings
  • Anaheim Ducks
  • San Francisco Giants
  • Long Beach IndyCar Grand Prix
  • Palm Springs Desert Smash
  • as well as National Women’s Soccer League side the San Diego Wave FC

Through the lens of sports entertainment, Gameday is essentially an insider’s perspective on the “adrenaline-pumping experiences” and “vibrant culture that define California’s sports landscape”  — diving headfirst into the city’s pulse; exploring each team’s history, fan culture, and stadium atmosphere; s well as getting up close and personal with signature food & drinks, Anthony Bourdain-style. 

“When it comes to sports, California is big league all the way,” said Caroline Beteta, President & CEO of Visit California.
