What it's known for
The arena sits in the South Philadelphia Sports Complex next to Lincoln Financial Field and Citizens Bank Park, so all four major Philly teams play within a short walk of each other. It’s known for loud, demanding crowds.
The building has had several names since opening in 1996, and the teams have announced plans for a new arena in the sports complex in the next decade.
Getting there
Take SEPTA’s Broad Street Line to NRG Station, a short walk away. The complex has big parking lots, and tailgating is common.
Tips for your visit
- Check the schedules: it’s sometimes possible to see a game at two venues in the complex on the same weekend.
- Philly crowds are tough on visitors. Wear neutral colors if you’re not a home fan.
- Grab a cheesesteak inside or before the game; it’s part of the experience.
