UTEP Miners men's and women's basketball have found a new home - the Don Haskins Center, formerly known as the Special Events Center. Nestled in the vibrant center of El Paso, Texas is our stunning venue. Not only does the Don Haskins Center feature one-of-a-kind sporting events, but it is also an ideal site for major milestone occasions such as graduations and commencements. With Don Haskins Center capacity expanded, the center has become a renowned entertainment hub in the city and has welcomed world-famous artists such as pop star Shakira’s Tour of the Mongoose, Oral Fixation Tour, and The Sun Comes Out World Tour; celebrated comedian George Lopez; rock band KISS during their Circus tour; and Britney Spears. The Special Events Center was constructed in 1977, replacing Memorial Gym as a venue for events. The arena proudly hosted a milestone victory for Coach Haskins during the 1997–1998 season - his 700th career win against SMU.
The Haskins Center boasts a stunning Robbins Bio-Channel Star maple floor, installed in 2002, as well as two state-of-the-art locker rooms, conditioning centers, and basketball coaches' offices. UTEP has garnered 5,592,257 fans throughout 34 seasons at the arena. Since the passing of El Paso Sports legend Paul Strelzin, UTEP basketball games have sold out in the 11,892-seat arena 112 times. This is particularly remarkable given that the capacity was previously 12,222! Shakira is the reigning champion for most arena shows ever held by any female artist, an impressive feat that undoubtedly sets her apart. On May 2, 2006, the iconic band Depeche Mode was primed to take center stage during their Touring the Angel Tour with She Wants Revenge as their opening act. Unfortunately, scheduling issues forced them to cancel this long-awaited show.
New Kids on the Block's Full Service Reunion Tour was supposed to take place on July 13, 2009, but the performance ended up being canceled. On May 17, 2016, The Cure delivered an unforgettable performance with a total of three hours on the stage and five encores. What made this show even more special was that they brought back songs for the audience to relish which hadn't been played in nearly nine years - including "The Perfect Girl" which had not seen light since 1990! Some of the upcoming events and games at the venue are Greta Van Fleet, TobyMac, Parker McCollum, WWE: Sunday Stunner, Rauw Alejandro, Chris Stapleton, Eslabon Armado, Marco Antonio Solis, Alejandro Fernandez, and more.
