We rolled into town to see Pearl Jam play. Awesome show. Great arena, friendly staff. Would love to come back and see a Nuggets game.

Like any place for concerts parking is not free and you will have an easier time getting a parking spot if you have cash. Once you’re inside ball arena you there’s many different floors where you can buy food, drinks, and merchandise for the event you’re attending. I don’t recommend it for concerts and if you must go make sure you buy good tickets. Every floor does have restrooms so at least there’s easy access if needed. Getting out is a bit stressful with all the people trying to leave at the same time.

Ball Arena is a premier destination for top-tier entertainment in Denver! I had the pleasure of experiencing a basketball game, a hockey match, and a concert at this venue, and each event was spectacular in its own right. The arena's layout provides excellent views from nearly every seat, ensuring an engaging experience regardless of the event. The sound system during the concert was crisp and clear, making the music resonate beautifully. Both the basketball and hockey games were exhilarating, with the crowd's energy adding to the thrill. The staff were friendly and helpful, making navigation and access a breeze. Concession stands offered a great variety of food and drinks, enhancing the overall experience. Ball Arena's versatility and ambiance make it a top choice for sports fans and music lovers alike. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a memorable event experience!

Such a fun night seeing disney on ice! Easy to find your seat just check that your bag meets the size requirements or you might not be let inside with it or have to stand in a separate line to have it checked. Also parking was $30

This is an easy venue to get to located right off of Speer Blvd. There is plenty of parking around the arena itself. The lots currently have Toyota vehicle names. We had prepaid for parking in the Rav4 lot. The worst part was that the majority of the parking attendants didn't have any idea where that was and gave us wrong directions. We finally found one attendant that knew where it was, but this wasn't until we were directed to four other lots and had circled the venue entirely. You can only bring a small bag with you, otherwise they won't let you bring it in. I would recommend bringing only items that you have to have. There are more than one entrances to Ball arena so if you have paid for a VIP experience make sure you are at the right entrance. The inside has plenty of food and drink options. We are easily able to find something every time we've been there. Make sure to bring your ID because they do card everyone. Plenty of restrooms around the arena. They are clearly marked and easy to find. We have sat in different sections depending on what we are seeing. The floor seats are usually the priciest. Sections 100-200 are typically just as good and tend to be cheaper. We have also sat in the 300 sections, which has been fine for stuff like monster trucks. Always fun to go and be apart of the crowd. Would recommend.

What an amazing experience, watching the Denver Nuggets win the NBA championship here at Ball Arena in Denver, Colorado. This arena is easy to get to from either downtown or from the interstate. Parking is very accessible and there are plenty of entrances into the building. The facility is kept very clean including the floors bathrooms and seating areas. The energy in this place is off the charts when it comes to Nuggets games, Avalanche games, concerts, and performances. Whether you live in Denver or you’re just visiting this arena is certainly worth visiting.

Had an awesome time with some cheap seat tickets and some friends. The Avalanche won, which of course made things even more awesome! I can’t give these guys five stars on account of their bag policy. They ought to at LEAST have lockers or something. I accidentally had a regular sized purse and they are militant about it. So, keep in mind that they will not allow it in and you’ll have to get creative if you make the mistake I did. Popcorn was delicious and beers were $15 but hit the spot. Other than the bag debacle I feel lucky to have seen a great game for not so many dollars.
