Viejas Arena, Indoor arena in San Diego, United States
Viejas Arena is an indoor sports facility in San Diego with seating for about 12,400 spectators during basketball games. The space is designed with flexible configurations that adapt to different types of events and productions.
The arena was built on the site of the former Aztec Bowl stadium, which operated from 1936 to 1967. Sections of the original concrete bleachers remain visible at the north entrance, serving as reminders of the earlier venue.

The campus is well served by public transportation with multiple parking options nearby. Food and dining choices are available in the surrounding area for visitors before or after events.
A granite memorial stone near the north side marks a significant moment when a U.S. President delivered a commencement address on this site in 1963. The marker connects the modern venue to an important chapter in campus history.
