Burns Arena

Burns Arena is a multi-purpose arena located on the campus of Utah Tech University in St. George, Utah, United States. Opened in 1987, the facility serves as the primary home venue for the Utah Tech Trailblazers men's and women's basketball teams, as well as the women's gymnastics and women's volleyball teams, which compete in NCAA Division I athletics as members of the Western Athletic Conference (WAC).

The arena has a seating capacity of approximately 4,779 for sporting events. It features a main arena floor, concession areas, locker rooms, and athletic department offices. In addition to collegiate athletics, the venue hosts university events such as commencement ceremonies, as well as community events including concerts, trade shows, and high school basketball tournaments.

The facility was named in honor of the Burns family, significant benefactors of the university (formerly Dixie State University and Dixie College). In 2017, the arena underwent renovations that included the installation of a new center-hung video board, updated lighting, and improvements to the playing surface and seating areas.
