Armory Fieldhouse

The Armory Fieldhouse is an indoor training facility located on the University of Cincinnati campus at West Daniels Street. The venue provides space for multiple sports programs and serves university athletic teams throughout the academic year.

The building opened in December 1954 with a basketball game between Cincinnati and Indiana. Over the following decades it became a central hub for the university's athletic programs.

The name refers to the building's original purpose as a weapons storage facility for the university. Today the historical name remains even though the space functions as a training and event venue.

The site is most easily reached by car with limited parking available nearby. Visitors should know that the facility is primarily reserved for university training and public access may be restricted to specific events.

The building hosted a Pink Floyd concert in 1973 shortly after the band released The Dark Side of the Moon. This performance is remembered among music collectors as one of the notable events from that recording era.
