The Pavilion at ARC (formerly known as Recreation Hall and best known as The Pavilion) is an 8,000-seat indoor multi-purpose stadium on the campus of the University of California, Davis in Davis, California.

History and renovations

Recreation Hall was opened in 1977 for intercollegiate athletics, as well as other large events such as intramural sports and public events.^[1] The capacity of the Pavilion is nearly 8,000 people and can provide 150,000 square feet (14,000 m²) of floorspace.

In Spring of 2004, UC Davis opened its doors to the Activities & Recreation Center (ARC). This structure served as a massive extension to the currently existing Pavilion. Since the two buildings have been fused into one massive complex, Recreation Hall's name was changed to The Pavilion at ARC upon the opening of the ARC in 2004.^[2]

Tenants

The main tenants of The Pavilion are the UC Davis Aggies athletic programs. The UC Davis Aggies men's basketball, women's basketball, women's volleyball, women's gymnastics, and wrestling all call The Pavilion home.

Break the Record Night

An annual "Break the Record Night" is held during each basketball season to attempt to break the prior attendance record for a basketball game. The current record of 7,926 was set on 23 January 1999, when UC Davis defeated Chico State 102-71.^[3]

Other events

Former President Bill Clinton visited UC Davis to gain support for his wife Hillary Clinton's presidential nomination. Around 7,800 people were in attendance with a reported 3,500 more turned away at the door.^[4]

World Wrestling Entertainment have also held shows at The Pavilion.
