The home of the Philadelphia 76ers, Flyers and Wings will get a new name in 2025 as Wells Fargo’s sponsorship of the arena will end.
Well, we all knew this was coming. The Philadelphia 76ers are getting a new home — well, in name only.
The Wells Fargo Center moniker is on short time, according to a Wednesday report from Bloomberg.
Wells Fargo plans to take its name off of Philadelphia’s sports arena, sources say https://t.co/d1TLNMG745

“Wells Fargo & Co. plans to take its name off of Philadelphia’s sports arena when the bank’s contract expires next year,” the report says. “The bank’s deal with arena owner, Comcast Corp., expires in August of next year, according to a spokesperson for the Philadelphia-based media and telecom giant.”
The home of the Sixers, Flyers, Wings and other events has donned the bank’s name since 2010. Let’s see, what’s happened since then for the Sixers? The Process years, Colangelo burner accounts, the Ben Simmons and James Harden sagas, haven’t made it out of the second round of the playoffs… I’m not saying any of that is the name’s fault but, hey, maybe a fresh start will be good!
So, it seems the Center’s naming rights will go to the highest bidder at some point between now and September 2025.
Does anyone have any suggestions for a new name? You know, just incase I come into a lump sum of tens of millions of dollars.
