About Amarillo Civic Center

Amarillo Civic Center, officially the Amarillo Civic Center Complex, opened in 1968 and has been expanded and renovated over the decades. The adjacent Globe-News Center for the Performing Arts was added in 2006, giving the broader civic campus even more flexibility for concerts, performing arts, and community events. Owned and operated by the City of Amarillo, the complex is located at 401 South Buchanan St. in downtown Amarillo, TX, serving as a central gathering place for the city and the surrounding Texas Panhandle region.

Capacity depends on the space and event configuration. The Coliseum seats roughly 7,000 to 8,000 guests depending on setup, while the Auditorium seats approximately 2,400. Smaller halls, meeting rooms, the Grand Plaza, the Heritage Room, and exhibit spaces accommodate events of varying sizes, making the complex useful for everything from large public events to meetings and exhibitions.

The venue hosts concerts across genres, sporting events, rodeos, conventions, trade shows, family shows, graduations, comedy, and civic events. Its role as Amarillo’s main downtown municipal event complex gives it a broad identity: one night might bring an arena-style concert in the Coliseum, while another brings a seated performance in the Auditorium or an exhibition in the halls. Amarillo Civic Center is known for its flexible collection of spaces serving large-scale entertainment and civic life across the Texas Panhandle.

Location & Transportation

Amarillo Civic Center is located at 401 South Buchanan St., Amarillo, TX 79178 — in downtown Amarillo with regional access from Interstate 40 and I-27.

Driving and Parking: Driving is the primary way most attendees reach Amarillo Civic Center. The complex has on-site and nearby surface parking, with additional downtown access around the civic center area. For larger Coliseum events, arriving early helps with parking, entry, and finding the correct building within the complex.

Transit: Amarillo City Transit operates local bus service serving the downtown area. Transit can be useful for some local attendees, though options are more limited than in major metro areas, so many visitors plan around driving, rideshare, or nearby lodging.

Rideshare: Uber and Lyft operate in Amarillo and can drop off and pick up at the complex. Downtown access is straightforward, with rideshare activity typically focused near the main entrances serving the complex.

Nearby Accommodation: Downtown Amarillo offers substantial lodging within walking distance or a short drive of the venue, with roughly 2,000 committable hotel rooms in the area. Additional hotels are located along the I-40 corridor for visitors driving in from around the region.

Venue Navigation

Amarillo Civic Center is a multi-building complex with several distinct event spaces, so understanding the layout before arrival makes the visit smoother. Events may take place in the Coliseum, Auditorium, exhibit halls, Grand Plaza, Heritage Room, meeting rooms, or adjacent performance spaces.

Entrances and Access: The complex has multiple entrances serving its different buildings and event spaces. The Coliseum, Auditorium, exhibit halls, and performance areas each have their own access points, so checking the event listing and ticket details before arrival helps you head directly to the right part of the complex.

Concourse Levels: Amarillo Civic Center includes several distinct spaces rather than one single seating bowl. The Coliseum uses an arena-style bowl with floor configurations for concerts and sporting events, while the Auditorium is a traditional seated performance hall. Exhibit halls, meeting rooms, the Grand Plaza, and the Heritage Room support conventions, trade shows, civic events, and smaller gatherings.

Accessibility: As a city-owned public facility, the complex provides ADA-accessible seating, parking, and restroom facilities.

Getting to Your Section: Staff and signage help direct guests within each building. Because events can be spread across connected and adjacent spaces, allow extra time to move from parking or drop-off areas to your event space, especially for larger Coliseum events.

Dining Options

Inside Amarillo Civic Center

Concessions are available for events at Amarillo Civic Center, with offerings varying by event and building. Food and beverage availability may differ between Coliseum events, Auditorium performances, exhibit-hall events, and civic gatherings, so plan extra time if you want concessions before the show or during event breaks.

Outside the Venue — Downtown Amarillo

Downtown Amarillo offers restaurants, bars, and dining within walking distance of Amarillo Civic Center, along with additional options throughout the downtown corridor and nearby districts. Staying downtown can make it easier to dine before an event, walk or take a short ride to the complex, and avoid a longer post-event drive.

Security & Policies

Amarillo Civic Center maintains security and venue policies that are updated regularly and may vary by event. Before attending, reviewing the current policy on the venue's official website is strongly recommended.

Re-Entry: Re-entry policies vary by event and are shown on the event listing or event materials.

How Much Do Tickets to Amarillo Civic Center Cost?

Amarillo Civic Center ticket prices vary significantly depending on the type of event, the artist or act, seating section, and demand — which is what you'd expect from a venue that hosts everything from auditorium performances and family shows to high-demand headline concerts.

Auditorium and performance-hall shows are typically in a lower-to-mid price range, depending on the production, seat location, and overall demand. Rear and upper sections generally offer the most accessible pricing, while center-orchestra and front-orchestra seats usually command higher prices.

Coliseum concerts and family shows are generally moderate in price, with variation based on the act, event format, and available seating configuration. Upper and rear bowl seats are usually the value areas, while lower-bowl and floor seats tend to rise in price for higher-demand events.

High-demand headline concerts usually bring higher pricing, especially for marquee touring acts. Floor seats, lower-bowl center views, and the best remaining inventory can move quickly as demand builds.

For high-demand events, buying earlier generally provides better seat selection and pricing. As inventory shrinks and the date approaches, prices for the best remaining sections often rise, especially for popular concerts, family events, and major Coliseum shows.

Amarillo Civic Center Seating Guide

Amarillo Civic Center seating changes by event because the complex includes multiple spaces, including the Coliseum, Auditorium, exhibit halls, and meeting rooms. Understanding which space and configuration apply to your event helps you compare sightlines, distance from the stage or floor, and overall value before buying.

Best Seats at Amarillo Civic Center

• Best value: In the Coliseum, upper and rear bowl seating is typically the most affordable option while still keeping you inside the arena atmosphere. In the Auditorium, rear and upper sections generally provide the lowest-priced seats for seated performances.
• Closest to the action: Floor seating in the Coliseum and front-orchestra rows in the Auditorium place attendees closest to the stage or floor, making them strong choices for fans who want maximum proximity.
• Best overall experience: Lower-bowl and center sections in the Coliseum typically offer a strong balance of sightline, energy, and proximity. For Auditorium events, center-orchestra seating is usually the preferred area for a clear, direct view.
• Premium and group options: Group seating can typically be arranged through the box office, while premium configurations vary by event.
• General admission: Some events, particularly floor or exhibit-hall configurations, may use general admission. For these events, arriving earlier can help with preferred positioning.

The map lets you compare sections side by side, check row depth and distance from the stage or floor, and see real-time pricing for what's currently available — all before committing to a purchase.

Can I See Where My Seats Are?

Getting Ready for Your Amarillo Civic Center Event

Once your tickets are confirmed, a few practical preparations make your visit run significantly smoother — especially at a multi-building downtown complex where the event space can vary by show.

• Download your tickets before you leave. Save your tickets to your phone's wallet or screenshot them before departing so you're ready at the entrance without needing a signal.
• Charge your phone fully. Digital ticketing is standard, and your phone is your entry. A portable battery pack is worth having for a full evening.
• Arrive early. Give yourself extra time for entry and security, especially on high-demand nights. For large Coliseum events, arriving early also helps with parking and locating the correct building within the complex.
• Wear the right footwear. The complex is a standard indoor municipal facility, with most spaces level and climate-controlled, but comfortable shoes are still useful when moving between parking, entrances, and event spaces.
• Dress in layers. Events are held in indoor, climate-controlled spaces, so weather exposure is minimal during the event itself. Amarillo’s elevation of roughly 3,600 feet and wide temperature swings make layers helpful for arrival and departure.
• Know your entrance. Amarillo Civic Center spans multiple connected and adjacent spaces, including the Coliseum, Auditorium, exhibit halls, and other rooms. Checking your ticket and event details before leaving helps you go straight to the right entrance.
• Check the bag policy in advance. Reviewing the venue's guidelines before packing prevents delays at security.
