The E Center is a 10,100-seat multi-purpose arena in West Valley City, Utah, southwest of Salt Lake City. The arena opened on September 21, 1997, and was used as an official Olympic Venue during the 2002 Winter Olympics, for ice hockey. The arena is a major venue in the area for numerous concerts and live touring productions.

The E in the arena's name stands for entertainment, not for the E! cable network.

[edit] Tenants

The venue's primary tenant is the ECHL Utah Grizzlies, and it served as the main venue for ice hockey at the Winter Olympic Games. Canada beat the United States in both the women's and men's gold medal games.
