ESPNNovember 27, 2012Although more than a decade has gone by, no one forgets the buzz in the arena when assist-making highlight reel Jason Williams, Chris Webber and yes, Vlade Divac, ruled the late 90s.
Nichelle CrawfordOctober 8, 2015I've been to sports games, conventions, and community events here. Very nice building. The upper stairs are scary, always have been. Here's hope that this building sees many more events!
AddieOctober 26, 2013Any event, even if you think it's a small event, get here AT LEAST 2 hours early. It is a MADHOUSE both inside and out. Parking spaces are too skinny. Hallways are too small to accommodate much at all
TWO MEN AND A TRUCKMay 29, 2013Love the events here and I am glad that the Kings are here to stay! :)
JD MaloneSeptember 9, 2017Stadium can become very hectic at times so be prepared for some fun times.
Reggie RuckerDecember 2, 2013Veggie Burger is decent. Patty is better than the fixins, but if you're starving and want something guilt free, drop the $8.
TaraMarch 23, 2013The gift shop don't open till after doors open for Arena so don't waste time tryin to go before the game........…..... GO KINGS!!!!!
Hiten VasaDecember 5, 2013Fantastic Experience as the seating is designed flatter as opposite to steep well . . . .
When coming to the arena on a non event day, always enter through toll plaza # 9
Don't buy concessions until the Maloofs have been bought out. No need to give them any more of your money after they've been so horrible to our city! Arrive early to get good parking.
This arena is always too hot. Yes, I am usually in the upper section, but open a door. It's 40 or 50 degrees outside. Let some air in.
LAMPS PLUSAugust 17, 2011Power Balance Pavilion is used by the NBA Sacramento Kings. It is the smallest arena in the NBA, but still ranks as one of the loudest venues in the league. Make some noise!
ᴡ VejmolaJuly 23, 2018We just had a regional convention of Jehovah’s Witnesses nice place to hold another one”
HuffPostJuly 26, 2010Check out the Skyline Restaurant, open to all ticket holders, for a pregame buffet. It's also the location of the post game show.
Ear plugs are only a dollar at the stand. Just buy them. You'll be a lot happier.
Smallest arena in the country but from all the noise you'd never guess it even though old it just has so much history
Be sure to stomp your feet and generate some Arco Thunder!
KingsFan Wi-Fi network has a strong signal but almost no throughput. #bringyourownhotspot
Greg PhilippiMay 6, 2012Bring binoculars if seated in upper decks or be prepared to watch dots move about below!
- Don't use the upstairs snack bar. Takes way too long (only 2 cashiers) and very limited selection. You're better off braving the concourse no matter where your seats are.
Can't wait for the new stadium. The parking lot at night here sucks with its lighting.
I feel like I live here.... It's definitely March Madness this month for me!
Backpacks are not allowed inside the arena. Diaper bags, purses and camera bags are OK.
- Mix it up--wrap your popcorn in cotton candy. Kid approved!
if you get free tickets it's a really good deal.
If you can find a free parking somewhere close to PBP, you'll save $10-$12- While yr here waive your towel, stomp your feet, and SCREAM!
Tamara DorrisMarch 5, 2012We get to go VIP style to see the Celtics game. I'm so behind in sports...when the heck did they change the name?!
Brian McDonaldFebruary 4, 2011High class crappy buffet and private bar. GO kings. Blah. Terd venue like terd Kings

"If you miss the first 20 attempts/shots during a Kings game, you'll do just fine for the team. Also blindfolds and using the force helps"
