United Center Events

While the Chicago Bulls actually won their first three NBA championships at the old Chicago Stadium, the United Center is known as “The House That Jordan Built.” This claim to fame is driven home by a dramatic statue outside the stadium that depicts the greatest basketball player of all time flying through the air, mid-dunk. Along with paying witness to the talents of Michael Jordan and his mighty Bulls of the 1990s, the United Center is also home to the Chicago Blackhawks, one of the Original Six hockey teams of the NHL. The venue hosts all regular season and playoff Bulls and Blackhawks home games, as well as numerous concerts, family events, and other sporting competitions. The United Center contains plenty of places to eat and stores where you can purchase team or event merchandise.
