The arena, completed in 1974 at a cost of $23 million, sat 16,530 for basketball and 15,993 for ice hockey. It was the home of the Indiana Pacers of the ABA and NBA from 1974–1999 and the Indianapolis Racers of the WHA from 1974-1979. It was also the site of the final concert held by Elvis Presley on June 26, 1977, the 1980 NCAA men's basketball Final Four, and the Midwestern Collegiate Conference (now Horizon League) men's basketball conference tournament from 1986–1988 and again in 1993.
The Pacers moved to the new Conseco Fieldhouse for the 1999-2000 NBA season, and Market Square Arena was demolished on July 8, 2001 in a multi million-dollar implosion.
