Amalie Arena, Tampa, FL

One of Florida’s premiere entertainment venues, Amalie Arena is home to the 2004 Stanley Cup Champion Tampa Bay Lightning, 5-time Arena Football Champion Tampa Bay Storm and a wide range of concerts and other special events.

Pollstar, a trade publication covering the worldwide concert industry, recently ranked the arena No. 2 in the United States. Venues Today, a publication focused on the business side of entertainment and sports, ranked the venue No. 9 in the U.S. Both rankings are based on worldwide ticket sales for concerts, events and family shows in venues seating 15,001 or more people.

Boasting unique features such as lightning-throwing Tesla coils, an 11,000 square-foot Bud Light party deck with incredible views of the city and a massive five-manual, 105-rank digital pipe organ, the Amalie Arena consistently provides fans with a world-class experience.

Each of the building’s 69 private suites has been completely reconstructed and finished with the most modern materials and technologies. In 2011, the publicly-owned facility underwent a $40 million transformation and now encompasses 670,000 square feet with three decks and seven separate levels. LED display boards that circle the entire area.
