What it's known for
The arena has had several names since opening in 1992, most recently Footprint Center before becoming Mortgage Matchup Center in late 2025. A major renovation earlier in the decade modernized the inside.
It’s one block from Chase Field, and Suns crowds in ‘Valley’ orange are a big part of downtown Phoenix’s nightlife on game days.
Getting there
Valley Metro Rail stops nearby on Washington and Jefferson Streets, and downtown garages serve fans who drive.
Tips for your visit
- Combine with a Diamondbacks game at Chase Field, one block away, in spring.
- Downtown Phoenix restaurants are walkable from the arena.
- Indoor, air-conditioned games make this a comfortable stop even in the desert heat.
