History & Legacy

Originally known as the Rose Garden, the arena opened on October 12, 1995, developed by Trail Blazers owner Paul Allen. It was the first NBA arena built without public financing. The venue was renamed Moda Center in 2013 when Moda Health secured naming rights. It has hosted NCAA Tournament games, NHL exhibition games, and major concert tours. The Trail Blazers' passionate fan base has made it one of the league's most intimidating road venues. Moda Center remains a cornerstone of Portland's sports and entertainment landscape.
