Seating Recommendations and Charts

Ryan Center & DJ Sokol Arena offers seating for approximately 2,500 guests, with a compact, fan-forward layout that emphasizes proximity to the court. Most events feature reserved seating, with some general admission options for select dates. The arena’s intimate design means strong sightlines from nearly every row, which you can preview using the Ryan Center & DJ Sokol Arena seating chart.

• Lower Sideline Seating (Center Court): For volleyball, these seats deliver outstanding views of play, quick reactions, and in-game strategy. If you value seeing every rotation and serve receive, target the middle sections along the sidelines.
• Baseline/Endline Seating: Endline views put you behind the service line — a great vantage point to follow serves, blocks, and rally developments head-on. These areas often offer excellent value while keeping you close to the action.
• Courtside/Front-Row Seats: When available, the front rows create a true courtside feel within a collegiate arena. You’ll hear player communication and feel the energy on every point.
• Upper Rows (All Around): Even the higher rows maintain clear views thanks to the arena’s modest scale and steep-enough pitch. If you prefer a wider perspective on formations and spacing, upper rows along the sidelines work well.
• Accessible Seating: ADA-compliant seating is available throughout the arena. These locations are designed for convenience and line-of-sight, with nearby access routes and amenities.

Location and Transportation

Venue Address

Ryan Center & DJ Sokol Arena

701 Florence Blvd.

Omaha, NE 68102

Located on Creighton University’s campus in central Omaha, the arena is easy to reach from downtown and nearby neighborhoods.

• Parking: On-site and nearby campus parking lots are available; parking may be free or require a permit for some events. Limited street parking is also available in the area.
• Public Transit: Omaha Metro bus service has stops nearby.
• Rideshare & Dropoff: Designated pickup and dropoff zones are available near the main entrance — Florence Blvd. is commonly used.

Arrival Recommendations

Plan to arrive 60–90 minutes before your event, especially for high-demand Creighton Bluejays volleyball matches and postseason games. Early arrival makes parking simpler on campus, gives you time to find your section, and lets you settle in before warm-ups.

Weather won’t impact your experience — the arena is fully indoors — but it can affect your trip and parking approach. If you’re driving, give yourself a buffer for campus traffic, and note that nearby lots may fill quickly as start time approaches. If you’re riding the Omaha Metro bus or using rideshare, set Florence Blvd. as your target and follow staff directions to the nearest entrance.

Walking and elevation are minimal from the surrounding lots, and the venue is ADA compliant. If you’re meeting friends or family, pick a clear pre-event rendezvous point near the main entrance so you can head inside together.

Venue Navigation

The arena’s compact footprint makes navigation easy — you’ll find straightforward access from the main entrance to concourses and seating. The design emphasizes close proximity to the court, so getting from the lobby to your section usually takes just a few minutes.

Concessions serve fan-favorite snacks and drinks, and you can browse Creighton Bluejays merchandise at select events. With ADA-accessible routes, ramps/elevators, and clear wayfinding, you won’t need to cover long distances to reach restrooms, concessions, or your seats. Comfortable footwear is always a plus, but expect only short walks from campus parking to your section.

Security and Policies

• Bag Policy: Refer to Creighton Athletics or event-specific guidelines; many events require small or clear bags.
• Prohibited Items: Check your event’s policies. Typically prohibited items include weapons, outside food and drink, and large bags.
• Re-entry Policy: No re-entry once you exit the venue.
• Service Animals: ADA-compliant service animals are welcome.

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.
• Arrive 60–90 minutes early for best parking in nearby campus lots, especially for high-demand matches.
• If using rideshare, set Florence Blvd. near the main entrance as your pickup/dropoff point for a quick exit after the event.

Pre-Event Planning

Make a night of it by exploring Omaha’s nearby districts before you head to campus. The Old Market and downtown areas offer a wide range of dining options — from casual bites to upscale steakhouse experiences — all within a short drive of the arena.

If you’re attending with a group, coordinate early to sit together. With the arena’s reserved seating and intimate size, planning through the interactive map helps you lock in adjacent seats and preferred sightlines. For select events with general admission areas, arriving early improves your chances of snagging your ideal vantage point.

Finally, consider transportation logistics upfront. Campus lots can fill quickly for marquee matchups, so decide whether you’ll park on-site, take Omaha Metro, or use rideshare. A simple plan makes your arrival smoother and stress-free.

Ryan Center & DJ Sokol Arena is ADA-accessible, with accessible seating located throughout the arena, ADA parking available in nearby campus lots, and elevators/ramps to support barrier-free navigation. The venue’s compact design and clear routing make it convenient to reach your section and amenities.

If you have specific accessibility needs — such as assistive listening devices — check with the venue in advance to confirm availability. For assistance choosing accessible seating, contact Ticket Purchase for personalized support before purchasing.
