Allen Arena at Lipscomb University

Detail: The Allen Arena is a very versatile facility.  Hosting athletic events and on campus convocations, the arena also hosts many events such as dinners, concerts, area-wide worship services, and graduations (the university and Nashville surrounding high schools). The facility has been host to events such as the annual Minnie Pearl Cancer Foundation Concert, bringing talents such as Sinbad, Bill Cosby, Dana Carvey, and Jay Leno.

Home of Lipscomb sports teams (the "Bisons"), Allen Arena also once served as the home of the now-defunct Nashville franchise, the Nashville Rhythm, in the revived American Basketball Association.
