Originally he Wellness and Events Center (WEC), now called the Joel and Diane Bloom Wellness and Events Center, is 220,000 sq ft. sports and recreation facility that includes a 3,500 seat basketball arena in Newark, New Jersey. It was built at a cost of $102 million by the New Jersey Institute of Technology. The Wellness and Events Center is the home court of the NJIT Highlanders who joined the NCAA Division I American East Conference on July 1, 2020. The WEC replaced the former arena of the Highlanders, the Fleisher Center. The new arena broke ground on November 12, 2015, and opened in time for the 2017–18 basketball season.

On October 6 2023, NJIT renamed the building to the Joel and Diane Bloom Wellness and Events Center to honor the contributions of former NJIT president, Joel Bloom.
