State Farm Arena, located in downtown Atlanta, has been named one of the top venues in the nation by Front Office Sports. This recognition comes from the first Best Venues list by Sports Innovation Lab, which identifies venues that effectively meet the changing preferences of sports fans. State Farm Arena is the only venue from Atlanta on this list and is among the top ten venues that include four NBA locations.

The selection by Sports Innovation Lab was based on a detailed evaluation of venues, focusing on their services and initiatives for sports fans. State Farm Arena, where the NBA’s Atlanta Hawks play, has been recognized for its efforts to improve fan experiences, a key factor for its inclusion on the list.

Brett Stefansson, the Executive Vice President and General Manager of State Farm Arena, thanked his team for their hard work in providing memorable experiences for visitors, whether they are there for a sports game or a concert.

Beyond sports, State Farm Arena acts as a cultural center, hosting concerts with international artists like Bad Bunny and Harry Styles, and important local events. It was also used as a voting location during the 2020 General Election, a first for such a venue.
