The Pelicans' NBA lineage began in 1988 as the Charlotte Hornets, an NBA expansion team. Following the 2001–02 season, the franchise relocated to New Orleans, becoming the New Orleans Hornets and moving into New Orleans Arena, which had opened in 1999. Hurricane Katrina forced the team to split home games between New Orleans and Oklahoma City for the 2005–06 and 2006–07 seasons, playing as the "New Orleans/Oklahoma City Hornets," before returning to New Orleans full-time for 2007–08. In 2013, the franchise renamed itself the New Orleans Pelicans, and in 2014 the NBA formally split the shared Hornets history: Charlotte's new 2004 expansion franchise received the original 1988–2002 Hornets records, while this New Orleans franchise retained the 2002–2013 Hornets-era history as its own. The arena itself was renamed Smoothie King Center in 2014, the same year as the branding change.
Ticket Timeline's game data covers this franchise's New Orleans arrival from 2002 forward; the franchise's full NBA lineage dates back to 1988 in Charlotte, though the 1988–2002 original-Hornets records now belong to Charlotte's separate, current Hornets franchise.
If your ticket says New Orleans Hornets, that's this same franchise under its 2002–2013 name. If it says Ford Center or a Oklahoma City address, that's a Hurricane Katrina-era relocation game from 2005–2007—not a permanent move.
New Orleans Pelicans play home games at Smoothie King Center in New Orleans, LA, USA. Dates for those nights are anchored in New Orleans time. The building list above is what Ticket Timeline uses when an older ticket names a former team name, a relocation-era venue, or an earlier name of the same building.
Use that timeline when dating a night: New Orleans Hornets (2002–2013) is this same franchise's earlier name, not a different team—the rebrand to Pelicans happened in 2013. Ford Center in Oklahoma City (2005–2007) is a temporary Hurricane Katrina-era relocation, distinct from the team's permanent New Orleans home. Smoothie King Center is the current name for the arena that opened in 1999 as New Orleans Arena. Rebuilding Pelicans attendance is usually a scavenger hunt: paper tickets and PDF confirmations, camera-roll scoreboard dates, calendar invites, season-ticket statements, and memory anchors (companions, rivals, life events, arena names on stubs). Work season by season; a partial list of attended games is enough to start matching opponents and arenas. When confirmations live in Gmail, Find Your Games walks through a read-only preview before anything is committed. For a shoebox of stubs, see what to do with old ticket stubs.
Once you've logged Pelicans games you attended, Ticket Timeline surfaces the attendance story—not a live scoreboard. Visited insights can include New Orleans Hornets-era nights at the same New Orleans building (2002–2013), the Hurricane Katrina relocation to Oklahoma City's Ford Center (2005–2007), and today's Smoothie King Center (2014–present); the building's earlier printed name is New Orleans Arena (1999–2014).

Pelicans home games today are at Smoothie King Center, a roughly 16,900-seat downtown New Orleans arena that opened in 1999 as New Orleans Arena and has been the franchise's home since it arrived from Charlotte in 2002—aside from the two Hurricane Katrina relocation seasons split with Oklahoma City. The building took on its current name in 2014, the same year the franchise renamed itself the Pelicans. Former names, relocation-era venues, and the New Orleans Hornets era live in the venue timeline above—use those when an old ticket does not say Smoothie King Center.
Add Pelicans games from memory, import a spreadsheet, or scan ticket stubs. Ticket Timeline links each attended game to NBA context—teams, arenas, players, and notable moments—so nights at Smoothie King Center and elsewhere become a browsable New Orleans Pelicans archive. Primary focus on this page: a lifetime attendance archive.
Ticket Timeline is for fans who want a permanent record of Pelicans games attended over years—not a live-score feed and not a ticket marketplace. A lifetime Pelicans archive can span the New Orleans Hornets years, the Hurricane Katrina seasons in Oklahoma City, and today's Smoothie King Center era—keep all those nights and every other attended game in one exportable personal record.
If you attended games as the New Orleans Hornets (2002–2013), caught a relocation-era night at Oklahoma City's Ford Center during the Hurricane Katrina seasons (2005–2007), or have been to the current Smoothie King Center as the Pelicans (2013–present), each represents a distinct chapter of this franchise's story—separate from the 1988–2002 original-Hornets era now credited to Charlotte's current team. A lifetime archive can hold every chapter that belongs to this New Orleans franchise.

The Pelicans' NBA lineage traces to the 1988 Charlotte Hornets, which relocated to New Orleans after the 2001–02 season and played as the New Orleans Hornets, then as the New Orleans/Oklahoma City Hornets during the Hurricane Katrina seasons (2005–06 and 2006–07). The franchise renamed itself the Pelicans in 2013. In 2014, the NBA split the shared Hornets history: this New Orleans franchise retained the 2002–2013 Hornets-era records, while the 1988–2002 original-Hornets records and retired numbers went to Charlotte's current (2004-founded) Hornets franchise.
