Sad to see the auditorium close after so many years of proudly serving Lincoln. It is incredibly awesome that St. Paul purchased the gym floor since their boys and girls basketball teams both took state championships on that floor!!

Nothing to talk about here. It is just a big gym. Acoustics are bad for concerts. Concession stands are scarce with long lines. Luckily this facility is in the process of being demolished, as it is not worth going to.

This is the best place that we have ever held our Roller Skating National Championships. Very cozy venue.

This is a very nice old sports arena constructed in the 1950's and means a lot to the US world of inline and quad speed skaters.

Parking around arena was metered (2hr spots) Mon-Sat. LOTS of spots though and free on Sunday. Ended up parking in a public lot and it was only $5 for the DAY! Arena is dated but did the trick for our event. Lots of seating for sure. Would prefer more informational signs to be up alerting me to the different areas that were set-up (restrooms, skater ready area, vendor location, etc.) but I think this is more our event's issue than the center's.

If the show is something your interested in and its there it is OK place to go but a very old venue that hasn't been updated. OK for Ribfest.

Thumbs up to roller derby. Thumbs down to hard-metal concerts. Venue is dated, but for the right event, it can be fun.

Son Jackson was able to enjoy his last time with friends by taking in a concert at Pershing Center. Mom dropped him off after a nice meal at a Mexican Restaurant in the Haymarket, another place you will want to take in while in Lincoln!

This place rocks. Too bad the city will prolly tear it down for another parking garage. They could book acts here that will not fill the 'Haystack' center and it's in a great part of town. I don't think any city council members have businesses near here, so it's a gonner.

I always enjoy this venue for basketball. As usual, parking was the biggest problem, especially during the day. I will be disappointed when Pershing is no longer utilized.

this place has had some good shows. it is dated. they are building a new arena to replace this one. this one has had some good shows in the 60 & 70. after that they got to needing updated

Pershing is getting old, let's face it. It has seen better days. The seating is fine with comfortable seats, but the concourses are pretty small.
