Delta Center events — Salt Lake City, Utah

Discover the Legendary Delta Center Arena

The Delta Center is more than an arena — it's a legendary stage that brings Salt Lake City’s biggest moments to life. From Utah Jazz games to blockbuster concerts and family shows, Delta Center events energize downtown with can’t-miss experiences. Set at 301 S Temple in the heart of the city, it’s an easy choice for fans who want top-tier live entertainment within walking distance of iconic attractions.

Opened in 1991, the arena seats 18,306 for basketball and features a modern, bowl-shaped seating design that delivers excellent sightlines throughout. A striking glass façade lights up at night, giving the building a distinctive glow and setting the scene for memorable nights out. Ongoing renovations have upgraded video boards, sound, and Wi‑Fi connectivity to enhance the fan experience.

As home to the Utah Jazz (NBA), the building is synonymous with big-game atmosphere — it hosted the 1993 NBA All‑Star Game and the 1997 and 1998 NBA Finals. The arena also took the global stage during the 2002 Winter Olympics, serving as a venue for figure skating and short track speed skating. Beyond sports, world-famous artists like Elton John, U2, Garth Brooks, Taylor Swift, Metallica, Paul McCartney, Justin Timberlake, and The Rolling Stones have performed here.

Inside, fans benefit from upgraded tech that keeps the action crisp and the sound immersive, along with reliable in‑arena Wi‑Fi that helps you stay connected. The venue’s bowl layout brings you close to the energy on the floor, with premium seating options such as club level and suites for elevated comfort and amenities. Its downtown location makes arrival simple whether you’re driving, riding TRAX, or walking from nearby hotels and restaurants.

Put it all together and you get a venue that feels electric on game nights and unforgettable during concerts. With a rich legacy and fan-first upgrades, the Delta Center delivers the kind of live experience that keeps you coming back for more.

Location and Transportation

Venue Address

Delta Center

301 S Temple

Salt Lake City, UT 84101

The arena sits in downtown Salt Lake City, placing you steps from major attractions, dining, and lodging. Its central location makes it easy to arrive by car, light rail, bus, or on foot.

• Parking: Multiple parking garages and surface lots are located nearby, with typical event rates ranging from $10–$20. For major events, advance purchase is recommended.
• Public Transit: The arena is served by UTA TRAX light rail — Arena Station is adjacent — along with several bus routes.
• Rideshare & Dropoff: Designated pickup and dropoff zones are located on the west side of the arena.

Arrival Recommendations

Plan to arrive 60–90 minutes before the event start time. Early arrival makes parking, security screening, and finding your seats stress-free — especially for marquee games or concerts that draw larger crowds. If you’re using the Delta Center seating chart to compare options on event day, arriving early gives you time to settle in and explore the concourse.

While the venue is indoors, winter weather in Salt Lake City can affect travel and parking conditions. If snow is in the forecast, give yourself extra time and consider public transit via UTA TRAX — Arena Station is right next to the building. If you’re driving, pre-purchase parking when possible and follow posted signage to nearby garages and lots.

Expect a moderate walk from most garages, with ADA-accessible routes available from surrounding parking areas. Once inside, you’ll find clear wayfinding to get you from entry gates to concessions, restrooms, and your section efficiently. Cell service is generally strong, and free Wi‑Fi is available throughout the arena to help you coordinate with your group.

Venue Navigation

The Delta Center’s bowl-shaped design makes it intuitive to get around — concourses encircle each level, connecting sections, concessions, and amenities. Elevators and ramps are available throughout the arena, with ADA seating offered on all levels.

You’ll find a wide variety of concessions, bars, and specialty food vendors spread across the concourses, plus merchandise stands and a main team store for official Utah Jazz and event gear. Guest services, family restrooms, and first aid stations are readily accessible, and ATMs and mobile charging stations help you stay prepared during longer events. Comfortable footwear is a good idea if you expect to explore the venue or visit multiple levels.

Security and Policies

• Bag Policy: Clear bags only, maximum size 12" x 6" x 12"; small clutches up to 4.5" x 6.5" are permitted.
• Prohibited Items: Weapons, outside food/drink, large bags, professional cameras, noisemakers, and laser pointers.
• Re-entry Policy: No re-entry permitted.

Post-Purchase Tips — Be Ready for Event Day

• Download your tickets before arriving — cell service can be limited.
• Bring a valid ID and cashless payment option.
• Charge your phone fully.
• Review venue policies in advance.
• If snow is in the forecast, plan extra travel time and consider UTA TRAX to Arena Station.
• Don’t miss the illuminated glass façade — it makes for great photos from the exterior plaza at night.

Pre-Event Planning

If you’re meeting a group, choose a clear rally point like the exterior plaza near the main entrances. It’s easy to spot — especially when the glass façade is lit up — and keeps everyone on the same page before heading through security. Once inside, take a quick lap of the concourse to see nearby concessions and restrooms, then head to your section with time to spare.

Make the most of downtown convenience by grabbing a pre-show meal or post-game bite at nearby favorites like Red Iguana or The Copper Onion. For a seamless plan, combine pre-purchased parking (or TRAX to Arena Station) with early arrival and a quick check of the Delta Center seating chart so you know your exact gate and section entrance.

If you want a memorable photo, catch the building’s glow on the way in — the glass façade is striking at night and sets the tone for the high-energy atmosphere inside. Coordinate via the arena’s free Wi‑Fi to keep your group connected throughout the event.

Accessibility

Delta Center is ADA-accessible, with accessible seating available on all levels and ADA parking in nearby lots and garages. Elevators and ramps serve every level of the arena, and ADA drop-off is available for convenient access to entrances.

Assistive listening devices are offered at guest services, helping guests enjoy clear audio during games, concerts, and special events. For assistance choosing accessible seating, contact Ticket Purchase for personalized support before purchasing.

Dining Options

Inside the venue, you’ll find multiple concession stands, bars, and specialty food vendors throughout the concourses. Offerings include local Utah craft beers, specialty nachos, and gourmet burgers, making it easy to grab a favorite bite or try something new between quarters or during intermission.

Merchandise stands and the main team store carry official Utah Jazz and event gear, so you can pick up souvenirs without leaving the arena. With a range of options on every level, you won’t need to miss a moment of the action to refuel.
