UD Arena

UD Arena is one of college basketball's most iconic arenas, serving as the home of the Dayton Flyers. The arena creates an electric atmosphere with its raucous student section and passionate fan base known as Flyer Nation. Located on the University of Dayton campus, the 13,000-seat venue routinely sells out and ranks among the nation's best college basketball environments. UD Arena has hosted more NCAA Tournament games than any other venue. The intimate bowl design puts every seat close to the action.

UD Arena opened in 1969 and has been the Flyers' home ever since. It became the primary First Four and early-round NCAA Tournament site, hosting March Madness games since 2001. The arena has seen numerous upsets and historic moments in college basketball. Dayton's consistent success has made it one of the toughest road venues in the sport. UD Arena's NCAA hosting role has earned it the nickname "The Arena That March Built."
