Extra stadium info – Chase Center
The construction of the arena started in January 2017. It opened with a concert of Metallica and the San Francisco Symphony. In 2021, the Chase Center hosted a concert of the rock band Phish. A person fell from an upper level of the Chase Center. He died from his injuries. Two other fans were injured in a fall incident at the venue during the same concert. The arena was inspected following an anonymous complaint about the low balcony guardrails and the steep staircases. Later, building inspectors deemed the Chase Center to be compliant with city building codes.
