Nice clean facility. The suite area is enjoyable and provides a great view of the ice rink! Drinks are pricey but that is to be expected from an entertainment venue!

This is a big beautiful arena with lots of parking. I mostly come here for graduations. Be aware that bags are checked upon entry and like the airport, no bottled water or other liquids allowed. However they do sell beverages and other food items for a hefty price. It was $5.50 for a single botted water - even higher than at the airport! When the event is over, they kind of funnel you right out the door like a herd of sheep. I would recommend parking farther away for huge events like Central High School graduation or you'll be trapped until it starts clearing out. Campus police keep the traffic flowing out so there aren't traffic jams. My preferred entry is coming in from around back via Grover Street to 67th.

I've been to this arena for a UNO volleyball game and the 90s concert. Both times I've been the event staff have been very nice and helpful as needed. Getting in and out of the parking lot has been easy thanks to the police. The facility is always clean and well stocked in the bathrooms. Overall don't really have anything negative to say.

The Jet Award was held at Baxter Arena. Parking was easy to find, based on having access to the secure lot. The club level was extremely crowded, in fact too crowded for my comfort. Once the program started, being on the arena floor was comfortable. The sound system was good, and the video was decent during the program. Celebrities from the NFL past were announced, and the mayor of Omaha made an appearance. Overall, it's a good venue to hold this award ceremony at Baxter.

My wife, a friend, and I went to a concert here last night for the first time. There was a lot of the upper levels blocked off. Overall, everything seemed nice, but they were really struggling to get a lot of the sound system in check. Of course, drinks are over priced as we expected for an event. The friend that went with us was handicap, and the employees were very nice to help let her go in easily without having to do steps and such. Parking was nice and easy going to and from the event as well.

We were just here for a Hockey game, needless to say, but we had a blast! I love this arena, it's not too big and you can have a pretty good view wherever you sit. The facility has plenty of bathrooms and it's clean and kept up. Looking forward to the next event at this venue.

I gave Baxter Arena a five star rating because one my dad has been a season ticket holder for about the whole time the stadium has been created lol. But I also like it because the stadium is clean. If you have kids, it's a great idea to bring them here because you were able to give players high-fives when they're coming back in to the locker room or at locker room. After the game if they win, they have a fight song. Great way to get players to sign pucks. I've honestly been coming here for like my entire life. They've usually head home games every Friday and Saturday. On some occasions they have a Friday Sunday series which means instead of the games starting at 7:07pm they start at like 6:07. During intermission and they have a Chick-fil-A parachute drop. You always get a free Chick-fil-A tag Which usually comes with the other free chicken sandwich or eight piece nugget. For the second coupon both times I've done it. I've got an a godfathers, three dollars off a large pizza, and a buy one get one free PepperJax coupon. The stadium is really clean. They have three main concession stands, and they have some small other concession stands such as cold stone, Dippin dots and nacho stand a Durango's time out which has hot dogs, popcorn, candy, and drinks. Durango is the mascot he's always interacting with people. Go, Mavs! Bonus Baxter Arena also hosts volleyball and basketball. This is College hockey. But the arena is off-campus nearby the arena just like a five minute walk are some lacrosse fields. And also a baseball stadium . There are three parking lots. And needs Area right next to the stadium or you get a place to eat. My favorite one would be Gandolfo's. The concession stands are owned and operated by Savor.They also have a Lawlors stores where you can buy official game pucks, jerseys, replica jerseys, mini hockey sticks

Great arena for large events--especially UNO athletics. I attended a UNO basketball game and had fantastic seats that cost about $15. Concession lines were understandably long during breaks between the action, but kept moving swiftly. The food was good too--serving Raising Canes, a few other arena staples, even a veggie burger. The prices are a bit gouged, but hey, what do you expect?With a central location and adequate parking, it's easy to get in and out of Baxter Arena, plus there are many of great places to pre-game/post-game at nearby Aksarben Village.While the Omaha area might have a few too many small arenas at the moment, Baxter serves its purpose of being a home for UNO's main events and anchoring Aksarben as one of the best entertainment districts in the region.

Baxter Arena is a cozy little arena that is perfect for UNO and the surrounding neighborhoods.Before you even reach the building, the roads and parking lots are easy to navigate. I think the venue could use a little more handicapped parking because we did have a small issue with one of our group, but otherwise it was easy as pie. Plus the parking was free so we didn't want to complain too much.Once you're inside, the arena is quaint, well laid out and easy to walk through for whatever event you're attending. There are plenty of bathrooms and the concessions are easy to find. While the sight lines are nice and easy from all spots, if you're a well fed husky person such as myself you might want to buy a ticket in the lower bowl because those seats are a little wider than their cozier counterparts in the upper deck.

I used to love Baxter Arena...a more intimate venue for concerts than the big arenas. BUT... when I purchased 15 TobyMac tickets (a Christmas gift for our family) in the section we always loved sitting in... and had confirmation for the purchase...my good thoughts about Baxter Arena were shattered.On the morning of the concert I was called and told that our tickets weren't available and they had moved us to section 107...basically BEHIND the stage!!I told them I had confirmation for my seats, but they wouldn't budge..."Those seats are not available, we can seat you in section 107." When I stated that was not acceptable they simply said they could refund my money. Such a quick response... tells me this is not an isolated incident! I assume that as the date drew near they resold the good seats for more money. Nothing else makes sense.
