Pinnacle Bank Arena, known as West Haymarket Arena during construction and commonly referred to as PBA, is a multi-purpose indoor arena located in the West Haymarket District of Lincoln, Nebraska, just southwest of the University of Nebraska–Lincoln's City Campus. The 15,500-seat arena was completed in 2013 and replaced the Bob Devaney Sports Center as the home of Nebraska's men's and women's basketball teams. The arena serves as the primary large-scale entertainment venue in Lincoln and annually hosts Nebraska School Activities Association state basketball tournament games.
In its standard configuration, Pinnacle Bank Arena is the second-largest arena in the state of Nebraska and fifth-largest in the Big Ten Conference.[7]
