Opened on April 6, 2016, the arena is a joint venture between MGM Resorts International and the Anschutz Entertainment Group. The arena is the home venue for the National Hockey League ( NHL ) 's Vegas Golden Knights, who began play in 2017. Since its opening, T - Mobile Arena has primarily been used for entertainment events such as concerts, and has been booked for one - off combat sports events, and other annual sporting events. The arena is accessed by a new development project known as The Park, with retail and dining space between New York - New York and the Monte Carlo casino hotels. Contents 1 History 2 Tenants 3 Notable events 4 See also 5 References 6 External links History The Anschutz Entertainment Group first tried to build an arena in Las Vegas in association with Harrah 's Entertainment. In 2007, the joint venture announced they would build a 20,000 seat stadium behind the Bally 's and Paris casino - hotels. Caesars Entertainment, Inc. had previously envisioned using the location to build a baseball park, but the company 's buyout by Harrah 's cancelled the plans. Through the following year, Harrah 's became uncertain on continuing with the project, not knowing if AEG would split the costs, and whether building a major league - ready stadium without a guaranteed franchise to play on it would be feasible given the enduring financial crisis. The original plans were to break ground in June 2008 and finish the arena in 2010, but by 2009, it was revealed the stalled project had not even done a traffic study despite being located near a busy intersection. In 2010, the plans were changed to use an area behind the Imperial Palace. However, given the financing would require a special taxation district, opposition from Clark County regarding using public money in the project stalled it even further. AEG eventually backed out completely by 2012, once MGM Resorts International came up with their own project using a terrain behind the New York - New York and Monte Carlo resorts. This attracted AEG primarily for not relying on public funding. MGM and AEG announced their joint arena plan on March 1, 2013. Plans were further fleshed out over the following months with the announcement of a $100 - million pedestrian shopping area, The Park, to serve as a gateway to the arena, and the retention of prominent sports architecture firm Populous to design the project. Other firms on the project include : the ICON Venue Group, Thornton Tomasetti, ME Engineers, Penta Building Group and Hunt Construction Group. The project broke ground on May 1, 2014, followed by the demolition of existing buildings, and excavation of an oval area for the arena. The final steel beam of the structure was placed on May 27, 2015. In January 2016, T - Mobile US announced it had acquired the naming rights to the new arena in a multi-year contract. The arena held its grand opening on April 6, 2016 with a concert by Las Vegas natives The Killers, Shamir and Wayne Newton. Country music artists Martina McBride and Cam performed at a soft opening on March 31, 2016. Interior of venue, shown on March 31, 2016. Interior of venue, shown 2016. T - Mobile Arena at night. Tenants During its construction, T - Mobile Arena was pointed to as the home arena for a possible National Hockey League expansion team in Las Vegas. The expansion bid was approved and announced by the NHL on June 22, 2016 ; the new team, the Vegas Golden Knights, began play in the 2017 -- 18 season. The Ultimate Fighting Championship 's first event at the venue was UFC 200, held on July 9, 2016. In March 2017, the UFC signed a seven - year agreement to become an official tenant of T - Mobile Arena. The agreement provides UFC with permanent retail space and signage, and requires the promotion to hold at least four events per year at the arena. Notable events Main article : List of events at T - Mobile Arena In addition to Golden Knights games and UFC events, a number of major sporting events have been held at the arena, including boxing matches such as Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Conor McGregor and Canelo Álvarez vs. Gennady Golovkin, the Professional Bull Riders World Finals, and the Pac - 12 Conference Men 's Basketball Tournament.
