The Oklahoma City Thunder announced that as part of the team’s renewed agreement with Anheuser-Busch, the brewing company will open a walk-up dining and bar area in Chesapeake Energy Arena.
The new Michelob ULTRA Club will open in the spot that is currently held by the Budweiser Brew House in the stadium, according to the press release.
Michelob ULTRA will also continue to sponsor the Thunder Bar Network.
Anheuser-Busch has been a partner of the Thunder since 2008, when the team moved to Oklahoma City.
Anheuser-Busch has been a proud partner of the Thunder since day one,” Will Syring, vice president of Corporate Partnerships for the Thunder,” said in a statement. “This meaningful renewal is a shared commitment to delivering Thunder fans a premium experience both in the arena and throughout Oklahoma.
Fans were not allowed inside Chesapeake Energy Arena during Thunder games this season.
NBA Commissioner Adam Silver said in April said that he expects arenas to be able to operate under full capacity during the 2021-22 season.
Chesapeake Energy Arena is terminating its naming rights with the Thunder. The team will look for a new partner for its name for the coming season.
