Thomas & Mack Center and Cox Pavilion

THOMAS & MACK CENTER A state-of-the-art sports and entertainment facility and one of the West’s premier facilities, the Thomas & Mack Center was completed in 1983 for nearly $30 million on the campus of the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV). The center is named for two prominent Las Vegas bankers, E. Parry Thomas and Jerome Mack, who established the original land foundation and donated $500,000 for feasibility studies and initial architectural renderings. Originally designed as only a sports venue for the UNLV Runnin’ Rebels, the facility’s focus and direction changed during preconstruction to allow it to become a multipurpose venue. COX PAVILION A multipurpose indoor arena on the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV) campus, the Cox Pavilion is connected to the Thomas & Mack Center and serves as home court for UNLV Lady Rebels women’s basketball and volleyball programs and the site of the annual NBA Summer League. The two-level structure features men’s and women’s locker facilities, player lounges and practice courts for basketball and volleyball on the ground floor while the top level is a multipurpose venue with seating for 3,100 for a variety of events, from athletic competitions to small concerts, boxing events, theater-style family shows, corporate parties, trade shows and more.
