Delta Center capacity for NHL games
During Utah HC’s first season and before arena modifications, the Delta Center will have a capacity of up to 16,000 for NHL hockey, including 10,000 seats with an unobstructed view of the ice rink. The goal is to have more than 17,000 unobstructed seats for NHL games at the Delta Center.
“Due to high demand” for season tickets, the organization plans gave priority access to fans who placed a deposit.
If season tickets sell out, deposit holders who were unable to purchase for the 2024-25 season but “choose to keep their deposit with the team” will be given priority access to buy future season tickets as NHL seating capacity increases at the Delta Center over the coming years.
