Bayfront Arena

The Bayfront Center was an indoor arena in St. Petersburg, Florida that hosted many concerts, sports, and other events, holding up to 7,500 people. It was built in 1965 and demolished in 2004.
The venue hosted the American Basketball Association's The Floridians when the team played in St. Petersburg. Prior to the Floridians the Bayfront Center Arena was home ice for the Suncoast Suns of the Eastern Hockey League and then Southern Hockey League from 1971-73. The Tampa Bay Rowdies played their indoor soccer games there throughout their existence.
The arena was demolished in 2004 to make way for an eventual replacement facility for nearby Salvador Dali Museum.
