Burnham Pavilion is a multi-purpose arena in Stanford, California. It was built in 1921–22 at a cost of $153,000 by Bakewell and Brown[1] and originally named the "Stanford Pavilion".[2]

It was home to the Stanford University Cardinal basketball team prior to Maples Pavilion opening in 1968. When it opened, it was the largest arena used exclusively for basketball.Script error: No such module "Unsubst". On March 10, 1953, the Pavilion hosted a first-round NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament matchup between the University of Santa Clara and Hardin–Simmons University.[3]

It was known for many years as the "Old Pavilion" but was renamed Burnham Pavilion in 1989 after Malin Burnham, a principal contributor to a renovation that increased capacity to 1,400.[4] As of 2009, it houses the gymnastics teams, the wrestling team and the men's volleyball team.[2]
