About this business

Opened in the summer of 2006 to replace the aging University Hall, the University of Virginia now holds its basketball games, concerts and other events in this 16,000 seat arena. Built almost entirely from a private donation, it takes its name from a former alumni, and not the Revolutionary War naval hero. It shouldn't be hard for fans to find, since it's right across the street from the old facility.

They told us that we could get a full refund and not see Stevie, but a partial refund was not offered. This is unacceptable and unfair. We were actually there to see the Pretenders, more than Stevie, so this was a major disappo... read more
