One Arena, Two Teams, Four Suite Sizes
A suite for a Stars or Mavericks game at American Airlines Center comes in four sizes. The arena rents game-night suites for 18, 22, 32 or 50-plus guests at every Mavericks and Stars home game, with food, drinks and close-in parking built in. Pick the size by headcount, then let the parking passes tell you how many cars to send.
| Suite size | Mavericks and Stars games | Concerts and family shows | Lexus Garage parking passes | Guests per pass |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 18 guests | Yes | Yes | 5 | 3.6 |
| 22 guests | Yes | Yes | 6 | 3.7 |
| 32 guests | Yes | No | 8 | 4 |
| 50+ guests | Yes | No | 15 | 3.3 |
Sizes and passes are the arena's own game-night rental terms. Extra passes were listed at $45 each, subject to availability, in October 2026.
The suites are the lit windows between the bowls. Same room for a power play or a pick-and-roll.
What Every Game-Night Suite Includes
The arena's suite rental is close to all-inclusive. The food and beverage package covers appetizers, entrées, soft drinks, beer and wine from Levy Restaurants, chosen from a set menu or built to order. A suite attendant serves the pre-order and takes new orders through the game. Guests also get the Platinum Level's bars and lounges, including The Wine Press, The Zone and Yuengling Flight Club, for a lap between periods or quarters.
Two fine-print items. The in-suite TV runs DIRECTV during Mavericks and Stars games but goes dark for concerts, by promoter rule. And the arena does not publish suite prices; they are quoted per game by its premium hospitality office, so the opponent and the date move the number.
Stars Night or Mavs Night?
The room is the same, the evening is not. Hockey runs in three periods with two long intermissions, which suits a client crowd that came to talk as much as to watch. Basketball never stops moving, with four quarters and a halftime show, which suits a group that wants the game to carry the night. Both teams play the full home season at American Airlines Center in Victory Park, so the calendar usually has a date that fits.
One Stars date leaves the building. On February 20, 2027 the Stars host the Vegas Golden Knights in the NHL Stadium Series at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, where suites follow Cowboys stadium rules, not these. See the Stadium Series game page for that one.
Suite, Club or Courtside: Which Seat Fits the Group
| Your group | Book | Why |
|---|---|---|
| 18 or more, mixed fans and non-fans | Suite | A private room, food included, nobody stuck on the end of a row |
| Clients you want to talk to | Suite at a Stars game | Two intermissions built for conversation |
| Two to six basketball diehards | Courtside or lower bowl Mavs seats | Sound and speed beat a buffet |
| Two to six hockey diehards | Glass or elevated center ice | Feel the hits, or read the whole rink |
| Office party of 40 | 50+ suite | One room, 15 parking passes, one invoice |
| Birthday or bachelor group of 12 to 15 | 18-guest suite | The smallest game-night size, with room to spare |
Game-Night Suite Checklist, Before You Sign
| Ask | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Exact guest count on the ticket | Sizes are fixed at 18, 22, 32 and 50+ |
| Menu deadline | Levy food is pre-ordered before the game |
| Parking passes versus cars | Five passes for 18 guests means carpools or a single vehicle |
| Mobile ticket transfer | Plan on mobile delivery; every guest needs the ticket on a phone |
| Who is hosting the room | The attendant serves the order; somebody still needs to greet the guests |
Book the Suite, the Dinner and the Ride
Five parking passes for 18 guests is the arena's polite hint: send one vehicle. A Sprinter van carries up to 13, a party bus carries the whole room, and either one can start at a Dallas steakhouse before puck drop. Compare the nights on the Stars tickets page, the Mavericks tickets page and the Stars 2026-27 home schedule, then send the game, the headcount and the pickup point. We bring the room, the menu and the ride together; you bring the noise.
