Paycom Center, Oklahoma City
The Paycom Center is the region’s premier live-event arena. Since opening its doors in 2002, Paycom Center, originally the Ford Center, has welcomed over one million guests each year, hosting a rich tapestry of concerts, sports, conventions, ice shows, and more.
As the proud home of the National Basketball Association’s Oklahoma City Thunder since 2008, this 18,203-seat venue pulses with energy on game nights-fans even dubbed it “Loud City” and “The Thunderdome” for its electric atmosphere. But basketball is just the beginning: Paycom Center has welcomed a glittering array of headline acts, from The Rolling Stones and Paul McCartney to Garth Brooks and Justin Timberlake, earning its place among North America’s top concert venues.
Built under the city’s visionary MAPS infrastructure initiative, set on a 581,000 square-foot footprint that can flex between hockey, basketball, and concert configurations, the arena underwent significant upgrades in the 2010s to enhance comfort and amenities.
