🏟️ ARCO Arena

ARCO Arena was a multi-purpose indoor arena located in Sacramento, California, United States. Opened in 1988, it was the home of the Sacramento Kings of the National Basketball Association (NBA) from 1988 to 2016. It hosted nearly 200 spectator events each year. The arena was named for ARCO, a Los Angeles–based independent oil and gas company at the time that today is now a brand owned by Findlay, Ohio–based Marathon Petroleum. It was later named for Sleep Train, a chain of mattress and bed retailers based in Rocklin, California, that at the time of the agreement was a subsidiary of Mattress Firm, a Houston-based retailer that has since re-branded all Sleep Train stores as Mattress Firm. Several major entertainers have performed at the venue, including Bruno Mars, Britney Spears, and Linkin Park.
