UNLV Basketball Arena Under Renovation
State-of-the-art facility to host future March Madness games
The Thomas & Mack Center is undergoing a major renovation that will transform it into a state-of-the-art basketball arena. The project, which is expected to be completed in 2023, will include new seating, a new court, and a new scoreboard. The arena will also be equipped with the latest technology, including a new sound system and a new video board.
The renovation is part of a larger plan to upgrade the Thomas & Mack Center into a world-class sports and entertainment venue. The arena has been the home of the UNLV Runnin' Rebels basketball team since 1983, and it has also hosted numerous other sporting events, including the NCAA Tournament and the WNBA Finals.
The renovation project is being funded by a combination of private donations and public funds. The state of Nevada has contributed $60 million to the project, and the city of Las Vegas has contributed $20 million. The remaining funds are being raised through private donations.
The Thomas & Mack Center is expected to reopen in 2023, and it will be the home of the UNLV Runnin' Rebels basketball team for the 2023-24 season. The arena will also be available for other sporting events and entertainment events.
The renovation of the Thomas & Mack Center is a major investment in the future of UNLV basketball. The new arena will provide the Runnin' Rebels with a state-of-the-art facility to play their games in, and it will also help to attract new fans to the program.
