SACRAMENTO, Calif.–Members of The Golden 1 Credit Union will be getting the first look at the new Sacramento Kings arena, which will be known as The Golden 1 Center.
Golden 1 said it will host a free, members-only open house at the downtown arena Oct. 1 from from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. An open house for the public, hosted by the Kings, will begin immediately afterward.
Golden 1 members will be able to take a self-guided tour of the building and meet a pair of mascots: the Kings’ Slamson and the credit union’s Goldie. Vouchers for $10 worth of food at the concession stands will be part of the package, too, according to the Sacramento Bee.
Tickets are required for the event. Members can get them by signing into their account at www.golden1.com. Members must also show an active Golden 1 credit, debit or ATM card upon entering the arena.
As CUToday.info reported, Golden 1 purchased naming rights to the arena for a reported $6 million a year for 20 years. The credit union recently announced that its members will be eligible for discounts on Kings tickets and merchandise, as well as other benefits.
The building’s inaugural event will be a concert on Oct. 4 by Paul McCartney.
