SALT LAKE CITY, UT — Whether it’s the electrifying energy of a Utah Jazz game, the high-speed intensity of NHL action with the new Utah Hockey Club, or a world-class concert shaking the rafters, the Delta Center is redefining what it means to be downtown Salt Lake City’s ultimate entertainment hub.
Since its debut in 1991, the Delta Center has been more than an arena—it’s been the heartbeat of a city. Now home to both NBA and NHL teams, and a frequent stop for global music legends, the Delta Center delivers non-stop excitement all year long. And thanks to its unbeatable location—just five minutes from major hotels and public transit stops—it’s never been easier to go from check-in to cheering in record time.
Game Night Meets City Life
Game nights in Salt Lake have taken on a new energy. Fans can walk from their downtown hotel, grab dinner and drinks at hotspots like Flanker Kitchen or Crown Burger, and be in their seats before tipoff or puck drop. Inside, the Delta Center’s bowl design ensures every seat is close to the action—whether you’re watching the Jazz drive the lane or the Utah Hockey Club light the lamp.
“Every seat feels like the front row,” says a local season ticket holder. “And the energy? It’s unreal.”
More Than Just Sports
When the arena isn’t hosting NBA or NHL action, it’s center stage for global entertainment. Artists like Taylor Swift, Paul McCartney, and Imagine Dragons have all brought the house down at the Delta Center. Thanks to its versatile setup, the arena effortlessly transitions from court to concert hall, keeping the calendar full and fans coming back.
Beyond the Arena: Downtown Salt Lake Delivers
Visitors can turn a game or concert into a full downtown experience. Within walking distance are standout restaurants, craft cocktail bars, art galleries, and family-friendly attractions like Temple Square’s holiday lights or the Gallivan Center’s ice rink. From GREENbike stations and TRAX light rail stops to nearby parking garages and scooter shares, getting around is easy—even on a busy event night.
