History
The arena is part of a master-planned waterfront design on the western edge of the downtown Central Business District. The 360 Architecture designed venue is situated next to the Stockton Ballpark. A multi-purpose sporting and event center, the arena was envisioned as part of the region's quality of life improvements. Construction delays and inclement weather caused the Stockton Thunder and California Cougars to play on extended road trips during the beginning of their 2005/2006 season. Stockton Arena opened its doors to the public on December 2, 2005, with a Neil Diamond concert. The first sporting event was a Stockton Thunder hockey game on December 10, 2005, in front of a sold-out crowd of 10,117, a game where the Thunder beat the Phoenix RoadRunners, 4–0.

On October 24, 2023, Adventist Health and ASM Global announced plans for a new partnership that will rename the city of Stockton’s 10,000-seat facility to Adventist Health Arena.
