Discover the Iconic Tucson Arena
Located in the heart of the historic downtown district, the Tucson Arena At Tucson Convention Center stands as one of southern Arizona’s premier indoor venues for live sports, concerts, and special events. Originally opened in 1971 as part of the greater Tucson Convention Center complex, this multi-purpose arena has become an integral part of the city’s cultural and entertainment fabric.
With a flexible seating capacity of around 8,962 for concerts and 6,521 for hockey or indoor sporting events, the arena accommodates a diverse lineup of events. It serves as the home of the Tucson Roadrunners—an AHL affiliate of the Arizona Coyotes—and regularly hosts everything from Disney On Ice and monster truck rallies to Cirque du Soleil, championship boxing, and touring music acts.
Owned and operated by the City of Tucson, the Tucson Arena underwent significant renovations in 2014 that enhanced its lighting, sound system, seating, and concessions, making it a modern, fan-friendly venue while preserving its southwest charm. Whether you're catching a high-energy hockey match or enjoying a nationally touring concert, Tucson Arena offers an engaging experience for fans of all ages.
