Located in downtown Salt Lake City, Vivint Smart Home Arena seats nearly 20,000 people and includes fifty luxury suites. The arena, which opened in 1991 as the Delta Center, is owned and operated by Larry H. Miller Sports & Entertainment. It has been known as Vivint Smart Home Arena since October 2015, when the smart home and security company entered into a ten-year contract for the naming rights to the arena.
The naming rights agreement is a “true partnership built around innovation, community impact, and the drive to elevate the prominence of Utah,” according to Vivint CEO Todd Pedersen.
The arena is home to the Utah Jazz and welcomes around 1.8 million guests to more than 100 sports and entertainment events each year. Plus, 2017 arena renovations include extended and rebuilt entrances, more comfortable seating, and a large outdoor video board for fan watch parties—radically transforming the venue into a sleek, modern facility you’ll want to experience in person.
And you can experience the venue firsthand this spring and summer at the following events.
