About Rupp Arena
Rupp Arena, part of Central Bank Center, is an arena in downtown Lexington, Kentucky. The complex around it, once called Lexington Center, is a convention and shopping facility. The Lexington-Fayette Urban County Government, through one of its arms, owns it. Kentucky's men's basketball team plays on its home court, and the arena takes its name from Adolph Rupp, a former Kentucky coach.
The building opened in 1976, a little over a year before Rupp's death late in 1977. It was the venue for the 1985 NCAA Final Four and has held NCAA Tournament regional games, concerts, conventions and shows. The state's high school boys' basketball championship, the Sweet Sixteen, is a knockout event with sixteen teams, one per regional champion, and also takes place there.
Naming rights for Lexington Center went to the local community bank Central Bank in January 2020; the arena became Rupp Arena at Central Bank Center while the Rupp name kept primacy. A 2019 renovation added chairback seats to roughly half of the upper bowl. The attendance record fell on January 2, 2010: 24,480 people saw Kentucky play Louisville.
