Sharks Ice San Jose
The venue is also used for public skating, public/private skating programs, hockey programs, broomball, curling, speed skating, ice dancing, and more.
Remodeled in the summer of 2005, the 180,000 sq ft (17,000 m) facility features six NHL-sized ice rinks (the Spartans play on the North Rink, which has a listed seating capacity of approximately 550, but is routinely packed with upwards of 1000 fans on game nights), as well as a full-service Pro Shop, a full-service Food Court, and meeting space for up to 500 guests.
Additionally, Stanley's Sports Bar & Grill, opened in January 2006, features food, beer, and wine.
In 1995, the arena hosted the Women's Pacific Rim Championship ice hockey tournament.
A proposed 200,800 sq ft (18,650 m) expansion would add another two rink surfaces and more than double the size of the facility, but would displace the San Jose Municipal Firing Range. If the expansion is approved, it would begin construction in 2020 and finish in December 2021.
The facility expansion included the new Tech CU Arena, the permanent home of the San Jose Barracuda.
