The arena, long known as CenturyLink Center and now Brookshire Grocery Arena, is the main mid-size events venue for the Shreveport–Bossier region. The seating tops out around 14,000 and the calendar mixes touring rock acts, country shows, monster trucks, and the occasional Mavericks-era NBA preseason game.
It sits just off Interstate 20 with plenty of parking, which makes it the path-of-least-resistance venue for anyone wanting to see a show in this part of north Louisiana. Check the schedule before you arrive in town — it is the kind of place that quietly carries the area's nightlife on the right weekend.
