Why you should go…
Ball Arena is the home of the NBA's Denver Nuggets, the NHL's Colorado Avalanche and the NLL's Colorado Mammoth. It opened as the Pepsi Center on October 1, 1999 with a sold-out Celine Dion concert and took the Ball name in 2020. Beyond game nights, the calendar fills with touring concerts, WWE and Monster Jam shows. Without an event ticket you can join a 90-minute KSE Venue Tour through suites, backstage hallways and broadcast booths.
