Location and Transportation

Venue Address

John M. Belk Arena

200 Baker Drive

Davidson, NC 28036

Located on Davidson College’s campus, the arena sits roughly 20 miles north of Charlotte, making it a convenient destination for fans across the region.

• Parking: On-site parking is available in Davidson College campus lots; event-specific parking details may vary.
• Public Transit: Limited public transit options available.
• Rideshare & Dropoff: Designated pickup and dropoff are available near the Baker Sports Complex entrance.

Arrival Recommendations

Plan to arrive 60–90 minutes before tipoff or match start. Early arrival helps you secure convenient campus parking, breeze through entry, and get settled before team warmups. It also gives you time to explore the Hall-of-Fame area, where Davidson College’s athletic legacy — including memorabilia from Stephen Curry’s collegiate career — is on display.

As an indoor venue, weather won’t affect your seating comfort or the schedule, but it’s still smart to account for regional traffic and weekend campus activity when planning your drive. With most guests arriving by car, campus lots can fill quickly closer to game time.

Walking from nearby campus lots is generally minimal and accessible for most guests. If you’re using rideshare, set your pickup and dropoff at the Baker Sports Complex entrance to streamline your arrival and exit after the final buzzer.
