Frost Bank Center Guide

NBA · San Antonio · 18,581 capacity

See San Antonio weekends

Last updated: 3/9/2026

Frost Bank Center sits about eight miles north of downtown San Antonio on the AT&T Center Parkway, in a location that's more car-friendly than walkable. VIA Metropolitan Transit buses run from downtown, and select shuttles operate on Spurs game days, but most fans drive to the surrounding lots. The Agave Club inside the venue offers a premium pre-game experience, and staying downtown — near the Pearl District or the River Walk — gives you the best of San Antonio's food scene with a quick rideshare to the arena.
