The Spectrum Center (formerly Time Warner Cable Arena) is home to live NBA action by way of Charlotte Hornets tickets of the NBA and is located in center city Charlotte, North Carolina. The arena opened in October of 2005 and has hosted hundreds of concerts and other sporting events since then.
The very first event at the arena was a concert by the Rolling Stones. It hosted its first NBA game on November 5, 2005. Its original name was the Charlotte Bobcats Arena. It has a Daktronics video board that measures 16 feet by 28 feet. It is known as "Hornets TV." The city of Charlotte owns the arena and the Hornets operate it on a daily basis. The name changed to Time Warner Cable Arena in April of 2008.
Notable events other than sports have occurred at the Spectrum Center, including concerts, circuses, television shoots, comedy shows, political events and NASCAR events.
The 20,800 seat arena was built specifically for the Hornets, who were founded in 2004, and replaced the Charlotte Coliseum. The Bobcats came into the NBA after the original Charlotte Hornets moved to New Orleans following the 2001-2002 season.
