History
In 1988 Phoenix Suns owner Jerry Colangelo
recognized the need to replace the old ‘Madhouse
on McDowell.’ His vision was realized with the
June 1, 1992 opening of America West Arena.
The building is where the NBA's Phoenix Suns,
the WNBA’s Phoenix Mercury, the AFL’s
Arizona Rattlers and the ECHL's Phoenix
Roadrunners all call home. The Phoenix
Coyotes (NHL) played here before moving to
Glendale Arena.
With soaring glass walls, a 12x20 foot video
screen and over 14,000 square feet of indoor
space, the new Pavilion creates a grand entrance
to the "all-new" US Airways Center that leaves
a lasting impression on all guests.
In
2006 the name of the arena was changed to US
Airways Arena after the merger of US Airways and
America West.
