Northwest Arkansas' only indoor ice arena

Jones Center opened in downtown Springdale in 1995, built from the original Jones Truck Lines terminal after it closed. Bernice Jones founded it as a nonprofit; Harvey Jones, who started the trucking company, had died in 1989, and six years later she gave the "Legacy Gift" that created the center.

The 220,000-square-foot building holds Northwest Arkansas' only indoor ice arena, alongside a fitness center, indoor pools, a gymnasium with an indoor track and a conference center. About 600,000 people visit each year.

The University of Arkansas men's hockey club plays all of its home games on the ice here, and 2026-27 is its 20th season of competition. The building is also home to the NWA Hockey Association, the Ozark Figure Skating Club and an adult hockey league for new players.
