The Triad's world-class facility for entertainment, from hockey to hip-hop.

In Short
Built in 1959, this arena has been around long enough to host a young Elvis Presley, but more recently you might have caught the Backstreet Boys or Jimmy Buffett here. Thanks...

How in the world can you allow abuse in your coliseum. I know you have a tight relationship with Ringling Brothers and the other venues it brings. Do you not believe that you can survive without a circus full of abused wild animals. It is 2016..please follow the lead of so many cities and ban them. You will be much more respected. You will make news in a positive way and bring positive...

I am outraged to see that the Greensboro Coliseum Complex is promoting Ringling Bros. Circus even though they continue their heinous record of animal brutality. Ringling has been given huge fines, the largest penalty ever given against a circus by the USDA. Many huge companies such as MasterCard, Visa, Sears, Whole Foods, to name a few, have ended their relationship with Ringling. Until you do...

Why would you allow animal abuse to take place at your venue? Please show some compassion and stop allowing circuses there. These animals are beaten and tortured in order for them to perform and hosting Ringling Bros and the like is sickening. Please join others who have banned this. Don't put the greed before the need.

I'm not impressed that you would host Ringling Brothers. Anyone with any common sense and education can see how the Ringling elephants have been trained, how they're not allowed to be elephants, and that they endure years and years of abuse with bullhooks, chains, and solitary confinement. We abolished human slavery in this country, but it's alive and well at Ringling. They're even going to...

Please don't host animal abuse shows! This day in age there is so much video of the horrific training that is done to these animals for our entertainment! Don't host circus's! Be humane and do the right thing!!

Way to go Greensboro Coliseum Complex! I see that Ringling Bros circus is coming to town and you're the lucky hosts!!! Whatever were you thinking when you accepted this contract with Ringling, who are as famous for their abusive "training methods" as they are for their tawdry acts? You have disgraced yourselves and apparently, lost your hearts, souls and minds in the process.

Overall the monster jam was a good experience. All except the lady at the gate singling out my children's father and asking him to lift his shirt so she can make sure he didn't have a gun. Noone else in line was asked this. He was not wearing a coat and his clothes were not baggy. My children wanted to know why someone would think their daddy would have a gun... it was embarrassing to say the...

Was at Monster Jam 1/10/15 & while the Coliseum building itself is very nice, I was amazed at how ridiculous prices have become. $10 to park, $4 for bottled water or soda, $3 for candy bar, $5 popcorn or pretzel, beer $7-$12 each, and worst of all, cotton candy and snowcones were $15 each! That is absurd! It's one thing to purchase tickets for an event, but is costs even more to park & buy...
