Opened: May 25, 2003
Orleans Arena is a 9,500 seat multi-purpose arena in Paradise, Nevada, in the Las Vegas Valley. It is located at the Orleans Hotel and Casino and is operated by Coast Casinos, a subsidiary of Boyd Gaming Corporation.

The arena is the home to the Vegas Rollers of World TeamTennis since 2019. It is also an occasional home for the UNLV Rebels basketball team when the Thomas & Mack Center is in use. The arena was the home of the Las Vegas Wranglers ice hockey team from 2003 to 2014, the Las Vegas Gladiators arena football team in 2007, as well as the Las Vegas Sin women's football team.

In November 2006, the arena began hosting the Las Vegas Invitational, a pre-season college basketball tournament. It was the first event of its kind to be held at a venue connected to a casino with a sports book, the Las Vegas (College Basketball) Invitational on November 22-26, 2006. The West Coast Conference has held its basketball tournaments for men and women at the venue since 2009, the first Division I conference tournament to do so at that type of venue. The Western Athletic Conference has held its men's and women's tournaments at Orleans Arena since 2011.

On November 26, 2011, the UNLV men's basketball team upset No. 1 ranked North Carolina at the arena.
