SeatGeek Sunset Terrace: A private hospitality suite located on the Sky Level, providing panoramic views and upscale amenities.
Fanboni Experience: A reimagined Zamboni, retrofitted with marine-grade captain’s chairs, an all-electric power system, and a custom Panthers façade, offering fans a novel way to engage with the game.
Commitment to Sustainability and Safety
Demonstrating a commitment to sustainability, the arena has implemented ORCA Green Machine clean food waste technology and utilizes infinitely recyclable Ball aluminum cups. Smart vending machines and HD LED walls further enhance the modernized environment. The arena’s dedication to health and safety is evident in its achievement of the WELL Health-Safety Rating, making it the first NHL arena to receive this certification.
Strengthening Community Ties
The partnership between the Florida Panthers and Amerant Bank, the largest community bank headquartered in Florida, has been instrumental in this renovation.
