Opened: October 2, 1999
Originally known as Alltel Arena, then Verizon Arena, now called Simmons Bank Arena, is an 18,000 seat multi-purpose arena in North Little Rock, Arkansas, directly across the Arkansas River from downtown Little Rock. Opened in October 1999, it is the main entertainment venue serving the greater Little Rock area.

The Arkansas-Little Rock Trojans, now known for sports purposes as the Little Rock Trojans and representing the University of Arkansas at Little Rock in NCAA Division I sports, played home basketball games at the arena from the time when the arena opened until the team moved in 2005 to a new arena, the Jack Stephens Center, on the school's campus in Little Rock. The Arkansas RiverBlades, a defunct ice hockey team of the ECHL, the Arkansas RimRockers, a defunct minor league basketball team of the NBA Development League, and the Arkansas Twisters, a defunct af2 team, also played at the arena. The arena is also used for other events, including concerts, rodeos, auto racing, professional wrestling, and trade shows and conventions.
