The venue is nice. Food options are great. My only complaint is that there needs to be more security or an easy way of getting help when there is a fight. A fight broke out in our section last night during Kid Rock & there were no security guards in sight. People were pushing us out of our seats to get away from the fight. We missed almost 2 songs because of this & it taking so long for security to get there!!

Security here is a joke. Wouldn’t let me in because I had a nail file. Just another random security guard on a power trip thinking he is on top of the world. Ridiculous.

Went for a concert and sat in the 300 section. I’m 6 feet tall and 185 pounds (Average build). These seats are not comfortable! I pity U of L season ticket holders.

Navigating to my seats was very easy and concessions were plentiful. Plenty of space in the walkways so congestion is not an issue.

The KFC Yum! Center in Louisville is a top-notch venue that offers an electrifying atmosphere for a wide range of events, from high-energy concerts to intense sporting events. This state-of-the-art arena is not only impressive in its size and facilities but also in the quality of experiences it provides. Whether you’re there to cheer on the Louisville Cardinals or to see a favorite artist perform live, the sound quality, seating comfort, and overall ambiance are designed to enhance every visitor’s experience. The location is also ideal, nestled in the vibrant downtown area, making it easy to combine an event with some great local dining or sightseeing.

Please take the university of louisville basketball court off the main picture. The tax payers paid for this. Not the university. louisville rents this.

Best college arena in the nation

Drinks - soda - are crazy and they do not allow you to keep the lid!

We went to the volleyball national championship here. Entry was very slow. Only one side had entrances for 21,000 people. The people were very nice, both in security and ticket scanners.

The arena could use some updating. The steps in 300 level are steep and some steps have no caution tape/paint. It was hard to see where the steps were.

The food venues couldn't keep up with the crowd. Food was pretty bad. We paid $20-$25 per person for mediocre food.

We parked a few blocks away and were able to get out fairly quickly. I would not park under the arena unless you are not in a hurry.

Why do the close off escalators at the end of the game?

Flew in to see the NCAA Volleyball semi finals.
The location is easy to get to, with plenty of eatery and hotel options.
The staff was pleasant and they hire a lot of people to manage the crowd/traffic, which was very nice to see!
We had lower level, mid-court seats. They were perfect.
The announcer kept the crowd happily engaged throughout TV breaks.
They had a wide variety of food offerings. All concessions were cashless, so plan ahead.
The only thing I noticed was the location/access to bathrooms from my seat. They were so far away and no cut throughs, it wasn’t worth going… but if you had to, it would have taken a while. Just be mindful if you have a small bladder where you sit!
Very much enjoyed it! I’d come back for sure!!

Bought tickets to the college Volleyball semi finals, there is a camera blocking the view of the court. I would highly advise not to sit in section 120

The KFC Yum! Center is an incredible venue that truly stands out in Louisville, KY. I recently visited twice—first to watch the Louisville Cardinals play and then to attend an old-school concert—and both experiences were absolutely fantastic.

For the Cardinals game, the atmosphere was electric. The seating arrangement ensures that every fan has a great view of the action on the court. The energy of the crowd was contagious, and the state-of-the-art sound system amplified the excitement. The venue is clean, modern, and spacious, making it easy to navigate even with large crowds. Concessions were plentiful, with a good variety of options that were fresh and served quickly despite the busy lines.

The old-school concert was a completely different vibe but equally amazing. The acoustics in the KFC Yum! Center are outstanding, making the live performances sound crystal clear. The lighting and visuals added to the experience, creating a dynamic and immersive show. The seating was comfortable, and the staff were courteous, guiding us to our seats efficiently.

Whether you’re there for sports or entertainment, the KFC Yum! Center delivers. It’s a versatile venue that caters to all kinds of events, with excellent facilities and a welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommend for anyone in Louisville looking for a top-notch event experience!
