The Vivint Arena (formerly known as Vivint Smart Home Arena between 2015 and 2020, Delta Center between 1991 and 2008 and EnergySolutions Arena between 2008 and 2015, aswell as Salt Lake Ice Center during the 2002 Winter Olympics) is an indoor multi-purpose arena in the downtown of Salt Lake City, Utah. The arena was designed by FFKR Architecture and was opened in 1991 as a replacement of the demolished Salt Palace arena. The arena's construction was financed privately by Utah businessman Larry H. Miller. It's capacity sits at 18,306. The arena is owned by Miller Family Legacy Trust and is operated by Miller Sports & Entertainment. After Miller died in 2009, the arena's basketball court has been named the "Larry H. Miller Court at Vivint Smart Home Arena".
