The state-of-the-art facility was built back in 1983, and was named after two prolific bankers in Las Vegas – the E. Parry Thomas and Jerome Mack. The two bankers were credited with donating money and establishing the arena’s foundation. The venue was originally designed as just a sports facility, but midway during the planning phase, the venue’s design was changed to make it a multi-purpose center. Today, the arena has a maximum seating capacity of 19,522 for boxing matches and 18,776 for basketball games.

Today, the Thomas & Mack Center hosts more than 250 events annually and has seen millions of visitors walk through its doors. Some of the events that the center has held include sports events, key industrial shows, star-studded concerts, as well as fun-filled productions for the whole family.

Add to this, the superstars who have performed at the center, and it is easy to see why this venue is worth checking out. With industry heavyweights such as Linkin’ Park, Korn, Rod Stewart, and Jay-Z, there is every reason to attend the events at the Thomas and Mack Center.

Guests can buy tickets both online and at the center. The center’s private suites are worth checking out for those who would like a bit of luxury. The suites are located on the concourse level and have a capacity of between 10 and 20 guests. These suites are ideal for spending quality time with friends, networking with investors, or show appreciation to clients.

Some of the amenities provided for guests in the private suite include VIP parking, a private entrance, and a varied catering menu whose meals can be enjoyed from the privacy of the suite. The suites provide excellent views of all the action.

The Thomas & Mack Center is close to the McCarran International Airport, and just a few minutes from the Las Vegas Strip. It’s close to the Cox Pavillion and the Sam Boyd Stadium, altogether offering the best entertainment venues in the city.
