    Larry the Cable Guy & Nate Bargatze
    Michelle M.

    I've been here once before, but it was for a graduation in 2016 so too long ago to remember much about it. I came here again for the Nate Bargatze show October 2025. Walking up to the arena, there were a few lines, all way back into the Railyard across the street. The check in process seemed like it needs some work! We saw people walking up the ramp to the right of the building so we followed. It was a long walk but took us to the back of the building with much shorter lines to get in. We were in the building in about 7 minutes! Once in, the sections were clearly marked so it was easy to find our seats. We went to a bar by our section and of course being an arena, the drink prices were way high. I asked for a Chardonnay but they didn't have it so I got a Pinot Grigio for $9.50, but it was probably the price of a 4-pack of them at the store. Arenas, right? The woman working the bar tried to give me a glass with ice and I asked for no ice and she gruffly told me it wasn't cold so it wouldn't be as good, but I mean who puts wine over ice. The seats themselves were okay, the leg room was minimal, it was uncomfy sitting in them for too long. The railing on the levels with section 200s were scarily short. Like I kept imagining how easy it'd be for someone to fall over them. I also didn't love the design of the escalator from the first to second floor. It was really high and had again a pretty short barrier with like nothing on the sides until you got almost to the top. I'd come here again if it was an event I couldn't go to anywhere else, but probably not otherwise.

    I've been to this venue twice and both times were a good experience. It's a little slow getting in and out due to the crowd but that's expected at any large venue. The food is good. I got a hot dog and was happy to see that there were jalapeños to put on as a topping along with the normal condiments. Concessions are at the expected concession prices, so be prepared. Parking nearby is very adequate because there are 4 big parking garages within walking distance of the arena. We definitely plan on coming to more games here!

    Ministry/Rob Zombie/Alice Cooper concert

    I attended a concert here (Ministry/Alice Cooper/Rob Zombie). It was a good venue for that. We were in the cheap seats ($20), and the sound and view were not ideal but weren't bad. Security was well organized and staffed, and it only took a moment for us to get in. As always, be sure to check the bag policy before going. Food and drinks were overpriced, as can be expected. No cash is accepted at concessions. It was fairly easy to find our seats, though we did get there while the lights were still on. The numbers are not super easy to see. Bathrooms were clean and had well-designated and functional door and closures. There seemed to be fewer stalls than I would expect in a big area like this. Wheelchair accessibility in the arena overall seemed good (I am not sure about the bathrooms). There were many fans there who use mobility devices. Parking garages nearby were easy to use. They have you pay when you enter, so leaving the show is easy. The parking garage closest to the arena was $20, the next was $15 dollars. We parked in the 3rd, I think it was $12. The prices might vary depending on other events, I don't know.

    a basketball game in progress

    Went to my first College basketball game here last night, Nebraska Cornhuskers vs Northwestern. I had a great time. Even though Nebraska lost, I felt very comfortable watching the game here. Seating is very comfortable and the arena looks so nice! Anytime you come to Lincoln try to stop by and see a game. Very entertaining!!!

    Wow. This is a modern state-of-the-art professional facility. It has everything it should have. Comfortable seating with good sight lines (even the seats toward the top had a good view.) Nice wide and easy-to-walk hallways for those of all ages. Plenty of concessions and restrooms. Then there's the world class sound and lighting system. The graphics on the video board didn't leave anything to be desired. Plus it had plenty of room to list the current stats. The sound was crisp and clear. There wasn't any issue hearing the emcee introduce the players, who scored or explain any foul calls. I haven't visited for a concert, but I would expect a similar experience. One quick note, the South entrance walks into a small area where you can either walk to lower court seats, into a team merchandise store or take an escalator to the next level. It can get crowded quick and when it does, the crowd can bottleneck at the escalators. If you're with somebody who might need some extra time or if you have kids, you might consider arriving a little early to miss the brunt of the crowd or if you're able, please walk around to the North entrance where it's easier to enter.

    I saw Stevie Nicks here. It was a great show. The arena itself is pretty typical of new arenas. Bathrooms are plentiful and more spacious than older venues. Concessions are easy to navigate. Crowd control was friendly and efficient. No matter what you see here, you're forced to take in a little Husker signage. But hey, this is their arena and it's Lincoln. Another big bonus is the location. Right off the main area of the Haymarket, there are plenty of entertainment options before and after events. Plus there's views of Memorial Stadium right across the way. Parking and traffic congestion was a bit of a headache, but that's to be expected. I'd love a viable mass transit option to the arena, especially from Omaha. Maybe some day.

    The Arena itself is first class in just about every way. They have plenty of concessions and bathrooms, which is usually my first complaint of large Arenas. They acustics are fantastic, we have been to many concerts there so far, and every one has sounded spectacular if your in the 5th row, or in the upper decks. There are no bad seats in the place for sound or sight as everywhere has a great view and sound of the main floor. They can move the floor around and adjust it to accomidate Charity events, Ice shows, Basketball, top notch bands or whatever else you could think of. It holds up to 15,000 people and when its full the place is rocking for basketball games. Is the food and beer pricey, yes. Its $2 or $4 for hotdogs, and $5 for pizza. Beer ranges from $7-9. Popcorn is $3, and soda is $3-4. Compared to larger cities, these prices are actually a little cheaper, but in line with nearly all major venues in the US. Example, Chiefs beers are $8.50, and 49ers its $10.50. And food, Try $13 for a burger at Vikings Stadium. Basketball arenas are usually similar so Honestly, Pinnacle Bank Arena is right in line with what I expect to pay. And I don't mind to keep all these great shows coming. World class events like Pearl Jam, Paul McCartney, Elton John, Michael Bublé, The Eagles, and much more. We never would have gotten such great concerts without such a world class event center and arena. Parking: 8 parking garages in and around Haymarket and Pinnacle Bank Arena provides about 6,000 parking spots plus another 800 street parking spots for events. If the weather is nice, I recommend parking a little further away and walking because you will get in and out of the area faster. Area Restaurants: Some great choices within a short walk include Hiro 88, Lazlos, Lead Belly, Brix and Stone, JTK, Mellow Mushroom, Wings and Rings, Blue Sushi, Dozo, Rodizio, Buzzard Billys, and many others. Lincoln is really coming up in the world. The new Haymarket area is becoming vibrant and full of fun bars and restaurants to visit. I can't wait to see what they build next!
