This multipurpose facility opened as the America West Arena, back in 1992, on June 1st, whereas, the construction started in 1988. A total of 90 million U.S. dollars were spent on its construction. The basic purpose behind building this arena was due to the need felt by the owner of the Suns, to replace Arizona Veterans Memorial Coliseum. The official inauguration game was played between The Phoenix Suns and The Los Angeles Clippers in 1993.
In 2005, after the merger between the America West and the US Airways, it had been announced that America West Arena would be renamed to US Airways Center. However, the name-change took place in January 2006. Thus, the US Airways is the corporate sponsor of the arena, and it is operated by the Phoenix Arena Development, L.P.
The architect behind the beautiful design and construction of the US Airways Center is Ellerbe Becket. The venue has the capacity to seat about 19,000 guests, and it is host to a variety of nearly two-hundred events year-round. Millions fly to the US Airways Center just to visit it, and watch their favorites live in action, while sitting in and experiencing an extravagant atmosphere. It is often nicknamed as The Purple Palace, but during the Rattlers' season it is called The Snake Pit.
The arena is host to a wide range of sporting events, including basketball, ice-hockey, and professional wrestling. The arena hosted the famous WWE event called SummerSlam in 2003, and many others as well, over the years. Numerous concerts and other performances and shows, like ice shows, have also been one of the permanents here.
