(WPHL) — The Wells Fargo Center is getting a new name starting September 1, 2025.

Effective September 1 and through the 2030-2031 season, the arena will be called the Xfinity Mobile Arena.

“Philadelphia is home to the most passionate fans in the country, and that competitive spirit is a perfect complement to the Xfinity Mobile brand,” said Steve Croney, Chief Operating Officer, Connectivity & Platforms, Comcast. “Xfinity Mobile is fueled by the largest and fastest WiFi network in America, which will give our Philadelphia fans an unrivaled experience at one of Philadelphia’s legendary sports and entertainment venues.” 

As part of the new partnership, Xfinity Mobile says they will “bring cutting-edge WiFi capabilities to the arena so fans stay connected from the tailgate to the concourse.”

Xfinity Mobile customers will be able to connect to Comcast’s WiFi PowerBoost feature, with no extra cost.

The arena currently known as the Wells Fargo Center opened its doors in 1996. Throughout the past three decades, the Wells Fargo Center has been home to the NHL’s Philadelphia Flyers, the NBA’s Philadelphia 76ers, the NLL’s Philadelphia Wings, and Villanova Men’s Basketball.

“This arena is an anchor in the South Philadelphia Sports Complex and broader region,” said Dan Hilferty, Chairman & CEO of Comcast Spectacor. “As we complete our historic relationship with Wells Fargo, we wanted to ensure that our new partner matched our enthusiasm for delivering world-class service to our fans and guests. We are committed to continuing to invest in our venue to ensure we’re at the forefront of technology, innovation, and cutting-edge fan experiences. We couldn’t be more excited that Xfinity Mobile’s brand will become the centerpiece for sports and entertainment in Philadelphia.”   

“Alongside our partners at Comcast and Comcast Spectacor, we have a shared vision of strengthening the home court advantage in South Philadelphia, and this announcement is another step in an exciting new chapter together,” said Tad Brown, CEO of the Philadelphia 76ers and HBSE. “Xfinity Mobile Arena will offer fans enhanced connectivity and high-speed capabilities to maximize their in-arena experience. By focusing on new and emerging technology, Xfinity Mobile Arena will allow fans to create incredible memories at games, concerts, and live events in the future.” 

The new partnership is set to begin on September 1, 2025, and new signage will be revealed on September 2, 2025.
