The HP Pavilion at San Jose is the home arena of the San Jose Sharks. Its former names include San Jose Arena and Compaq Center at San Jose; its nickname is the Shark Tank. Its construction was delayed, forcing the Sharks to play at the Cow Palace for a few seasons, until the new arena opened in 1993. In 2011, the arena will also be home to the San Jose SaberCats of the Arena Football League. It also hosted the Golden State Warriors of the National Basketball Association while their new arena was being reconstructed.
Location formerly known as:
- San Jose Arena (1993-2001)
- Compaq Center at San Jose (2001-2002)
