Neville Arena is a modern sports facility at Auburn University with 9,121 seats arranged in a steep configuration to provide optimal viewing angles of the playing floor. The structure features glass panels in its contemporary design and contains multiple levels with different seating sections.
Auburn announced the $92.5 million project on June 29, 2007, broke ground on August 29, 2008, and completed it under budget at $86 million. A ribbon-cutting on October 15, 2010, ended with a Harlem Globetrotters game. The arena was renamed Neville Arena on March 4, 2022, after Bill and Connie Neville made the largest gift in Auburn Athletics history.
The Jonathan B. Lovelace Museum at the main entrance displays photographs and objects related to the university's sports history, showcasing moments from past teams and competitions.
The venue has multiple levels with six concession stands distributed throughout for food and beverages, along with three elevators for easier movement. Around the facility, 94 large-screen televisions provide additional viewing options during events.
The venue includes flexible banquet spaces of about 1,000 square meters with separate suite lounges designed for tailgate events that can be reconfigured based on what is being hosted. This adaptability allows the spaces to transition from sports events to other types of gatherings.
