Home venues in Ticket Timeline's game data
The building the Monarchs called home in the attendance data Ticket Timeline uses—useful when an old ticket names ARCO Arena from the Sacramento years.
- Final home: ARCO Arena (1997–2009), Sacramento, CA — the Monarchs' only home, shared with the NBA's Sacramento Kings. WNBA basketball capacity was about 17,300.
Coverage in Ticket Timeline's game data starts in 1997, the year the Monarchs joined the WNBA as one of the league's original eight franchises.
If your ticket says ARCO Arena, that is the Monarchs' only home in Ticket Timeline's data. Later arena names for the Kings are separate from the Monarchs' building record, which ended when the franchise folded.
The Monarchs folded in November 2009. Sacramento has had no WNBA team since. Yolanda Griffith and Ticha Penicheiro led the 2005 WNBA championship team—the franchise's only title—and a 2006 return to the Finals against Detroit before the club ceased operations four years later.
The Sacramento Monarchs hosted WNBA games at ARCO Arena in Sacramento, CA, USA, from 1997 to 2009. Dates for those nights are anchored in Pacific time. The building list above is what Ticket Timeline uses when an older ticket names ARCO Arena.
