About Pensacola Bay Center
The Pensacola Bay Center, located at 201 E Gregory St in downtown Pensacola, is a versatile, indoor arena owned by Escambia County and operated by ASM Global. Since its renaming in 2012 (formerly Pensacola Civic Center), it has continued to host a wide range of events—from hockey and basketball tournaments to concerts and political rallies. With a seating capacity of up to 10,000 for non-hockey events and 8,150 for hockey configurations, the Bay Center is a central hub for entertainment and sports in the Gulf Coast region.
Whether you’re attending a Pensacola Ice Flyers game, a Sun Belt Conference basketball tournament, or a headline concert, we’ve got you covered with practical buying tips, seating insights, and nearby lodging and dining options to make your night easy from start to finish.
Parking is conveniently adjacent and fully cashless for all events since October 21, 2023. Two nearby ECAT bus stops and a FlexTransit option make getting to and from the venue straightforward. For visitors driving in from out of town, the Pensacola Bay Center sits in a walkable downtown area with several hotel options and a variety of dining choices within a short ride or stroll.
