Venue Address

First Horizon Coliseum

Public Transit: Served by Greensboro Transit Authority (GTA) bus routes.
Rideshare & Dropoff: Designated pickup and dropoff zones are available near the main entrances.

Arrival Recommendations

Plan to arrive 60–90 minutes before your event start time to account for parking, security screening, and navigating to your seats. This is especially helpful for sold-out shows and high-profile sporting events when entry lines and traffic can be heavier.

Because First Horizon Coliseum is an indoor arena, weather is not typically a concern once you’re inside. That said, give yourself a few extra minutes if rain or cold weather might slow parking and entry. Expect some walking from the lots to the main entrances; ramps and elevators are available once you’re in the building.

If you’re using public transit via GTA bus routes or a rideshare service, plan dropoff and pickup at the designated zones near the main entrances to streamline your arrival and exit. Cell service is generally reliable but can be congested during major events, so download mobile tickets in advance and have them ready at the gate.

Venue Navigation

The arena’s flexible layout includes lower, club, and upper levels, plus floor seating for concerts — all supported by elevators and ramps for easy access. You’ll find merchandise stands available during concerts and sporting events, along with ATMs throughout the concourse.

Concessions are widely distributed, with multiple stands offering classic arena fare and specialty items. If you’re exploring different levels or heading to suites and VIP areas, allow a few extra minutes between intermissions or periods to move around comfortably.

Post-Purchase Tips — Be Ready for Event Day

Download your tickets before arriving — cell service can be limited.
Bring a valid ID and cashless payment option.
Charge your phone fully.
Review venue policies in advance.
Budget for parking fees (typically $10–$20) and arrive early to avoid lines.
If you’re using GTA bus routes or rideshare, confirm pickup points near the main entrances before the show ends.

Pre-Event Planning

Make the most of your night by arriving early to enjoy the Greensboro food scene near the arena. With standout restaurants just minutes away, you can grab a bite before showtime and beat the rush at security and concessions. If you’re coming as a group, decide on a meetup spot near the main entrances to streamline your arrival.

Keep an eye out for special exterior lighting displays tied to major events — they’re a great way to capture photos and build the pre-show buzz. If you’re exploring First Horizon Coliseum At Greensboro Complex upcoming events, consider your ideal view and amenities, then check the interactive seating map to match your preferences with available sections.

For families, plan quick stops for snacks and merch right after entry to avoid peak intermission lines. And if you prefer a premium experience, consider club seats or suites with elevated comfort and amenities.

Accessibility

First Horizon Coliseum is ADA-accessible, with designated accessible parking near entrances, elevators and ramps serving all seating levels, and accessible seating available throughout the arena when requested at purchase.
