About United Center

The United Center opened in 1994 on Chicago's Near West Side as the home of the NBA's Chicago Bulls and the NHL's Chicago Blackhawks, and it hosts concerts too. For Bulls games, the hardwood court is laid over the Blackhawks' ice. In the atrium added in 2017 stands The Spirit, a 12-foot bronze of Michael Jordan in midflight on a black granite base. The atrium is open daily, so you can see the statue without an event ticket.
