The Toyota Center is a sports stadium located in downtown Houston, Texas.

Named after the Japanese automobile manufacturer Toyota, the Toyota Center houses the NBA team Houston Rockets, the WNBA tea, Houston Comets, and the AHL team Houston Aeros.

The sports teams had pressured the city for a new stadium to be built, which replaced the Houston Compaq Center, formerly the Summit. The Toyota Stadium is their new home.

The first event after the opening ceremony of the Toyota Center was a Fleetwood Mac concert.
