As the Delta Center undergoes a continued renovation in Salt Lake City to further cement it as a home for both the NBA and NHL, the NBA’s Utah Jazz plans a new practice facility alongside the Utah Mammoth Ice Center.

Smith Entertainment Group (SEG), owners of both the Mammoth and the Jazz, have a two-year plan to continue recreating the Salt Lake City arena. The new practice facility announcement, alongside a sports medicine center, will place both team’s training centers on the same campus with a healthcare provider, what Ryan Smith, chairman and CEO of SEG, calls an “important step in creating Utah as a destination market for professional athletes.”

The next step for the Delta Center happens this offseason. The arena’s upper north end zone will soon feature new terrace-style ledges with full-view seating for what the team calls a more connected and immersive experience. Suspended “gondolas” along both sidelines will offer a bird’s-eye view of the event floor for over 200 fans with unique hospitality and gathering spaces. A new parking structure on the same property as the arena will also get completed this offseason.

A new sports medicine facility will join a new training center for the Utah Jazz alongside the training center for the Utah Mammoth on one campus in Sandy, Utah.

In 2027, major construction features a new slope design to connect the upper and lower levels of the seating bowl while shifting the sightlines to mesh the needs of hosting both the NBA and NHL. Renovations to suites will begin on the north side in 2026 and finish in 2027. Additional upgrades include added food and beverage options, updated concourses and concession locations, fresh social areas, new restroom capacity and expanded club spaces.
