Facilities

Miami Beach Auditorium

Miami Beach Convention Hall

James L. Knight Center

Miami Arena

The Hurricanes called Miami Arena home from 1988 until December 2002. The downtown arena attracted large crowds for marquee opponents as the program began play in the Big East Conference in 1991. The school shared the facility with the NBA's Miami Heat and the NHL's Florida Panthers until each respective professional franchise built newer stadiums.

BankUnited Center

After years of planning, Hurricanes basketball finally moved on-campus on January 4, 2003 when the Hurricanes defeated No. 22 North Carolina in overtime to christen the opening of the Convocation Center (nicknamed the "Convo"). The $48 million facility was funded through private donations, though was later renamed the BankUnited Center in 2005.[11] The 8,000-seat venue, known on-campus as "The BUC", has also hosted concerts, family shows, trade shows, lecture series, and general university events. Arguably the most convenient venue to travel to in South Florida, the BankUnited Center is served by the Miami Metrorail at the University Station.
