About Stadium

An indoor sports and entertainment venue located in downtown Raleigh, North Carolina, the PNC Arena is primarily the home for the National Hockey League’s Carolina Hurricanes.

Before being named PNC Arena, the venue was also named the Raleigh Entertainment & Sports Arena, and also the RBC Center, before reaching its current name.

In addition to being the home of the NHL’s Carolina Hurricanes, the facility also serves as home to the North Carolina State Men’s Division I College Basketball Team.

The stadium originally stemmed from the local college, North Carolina State’s attempt to acquire a new home-arena in the 1980s to replace their old and aging home-arena, Reynolds Coliseum. The project didn’t start for over a decade later after the start of their search for a new stadium.
