The Bankoh Arena at the Stan Sheriff Center is a 10,300-seat multi-purpose arena in Honolulu CDP, City and County of Honolulu, Hawaii, on the campus of the University of Hawaii at Manoa (UH). Initially named the Special Events Arena when it opened in 1994, the arena was renamed the Stan Sheriff Center in 1998 in honor of Stan Sheriff (1932–1993), a former UH athletic director who lobbied for its construction. Bank of Hawaii secured naming rights on a 10-year, $5-million contract announced on November 12, 2020, which initially renamed the arena "SimpliFi Arena at Stan Sheriff Center" after their digital banking product. The arena branding was changed to "Bankoh", a common local nickname for Bank of Hawaii, on August 26, 2025 to reflect the bank's community and university ties.
