| Description | The Greensboro Coliseum Complex was conceived as, and continues to be a multi-building facility to serve the Citizens of Greensboro and the surrounding area through a broad range of activities, including athletic events, cultural arts, concerts, theater, and other entertainment, educational activities, fairs, exhibits, and public and private events of all kinds, such as conventions, convocations, trade and consumer shows. It is both a primary center of activity for the community as well as one of many resources central to community-wide events. Therefore, the Complex must provide opportunities for community activities and events while operating as a facility which generates economic activity in Greensboro. The Greensboro Coliseum Complex has a rich history as one of the premiere sports and entertainment facilities in the Southeast, host to such prestigious events as the ACC Tournament, ECHL hockey, and the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament. Since 1959, the Coliseum has featured superstars from Elvis to Usher.
The Complex has undergone several major renovations, the latest in 1994, bringing the maximum arena capacity to its current 23,500.
Owned by the City of Greensboro, the complex features a flexible capacity arena that can accommodate concerts and events for 4,000 to 23,000 fans; a 2,376 seat auditorium for Broadway theatre and concerts; and a 120,000 square foot Special Events Center for trade and consumer shows and 20,000 square feet of space for meetings of all sizes. The Special Events Center also features a 4,300 seat theater set-up for concerts and sporting events. |
