About Dignity Health Arena

Dignity Health Arena is an indoor multi-purpose arena located at 1001 Truxtun Ave in downtown Bakersfield, California. It opened in 1998 as Centennial Garden and has also been known over the years as Rabobank Arena and Mechanics Bank Arena. The venue is owned by the City of Bakersfield and managed by ASM Global as part of the Dignity Health Arena, Theater and Convention Center complex. Its capacity is approximately 10,400 for hockey and sports, with concert configurations adjusting to roughly 11,000 or more depending on the floor setup.

The arena serves as home ice for the Bakersfield Condors of the American Hockey League and hosts a wide event mix that includes minor-league hockey, concerts across genres, professional wrestling, family shows, comedy, and community or convention events. The broader downtown complex also includes the adjacent Dignity Health Theater and a convention center, allowing the campus to support events of different sizes within one central footprint.

As Bakersfield’s primary indoor arena, Dignity Health Arena is known for bringing touring entertainment, sports, and family programming to the region from its downtown location.

Location & Transportation

Dignity Health Arena is located at 1001 Truxtun Ave, Bakersfield, CA 93301 — in downtown Bakersfield within the Dignity Health Arena, Theater and Convention Center complex.

Driving and Parking: Most attendees drive to Dignity Health Arena. The venue is accessible from Highway 99 and Highway 58, and on-site and adjacent surface lots and parking structures serve the complex. Additional metered spaces and paid lots are available throughout downtown Bakersfield. For popular shows and games, lots fill closer to event start time, so arriving early gives you more time to park and reach the arena entrance.

Transit: Golden Empire Transit bus service runs through downtown Bakersfield, and the Bakersfield Amtrak station on the San Joaquins line is within the downtown area. Transit is available, though it is more limited than in larger metro areas.

Rideshare: Uber and Lyft operate in Bakersfield, with downtown drop-off and pickup near the arena entrances. After large events, expect brief post-event waits as traffic clears around the complex.

Nearby Accommodation: Several hotels are located in and around downtown Bakersfield within a short drive of the arena. Additional lodging is clustered near the Highway 99 and Highway 58 corridors for visitors driving in from elsewhere in the region.

Venue Navigation

Dignity Health Arena uses a standard indoor arena layout with concourses feeding into lower-level and upper-level seating. Understanding the bowl layout, floor configurations for concerts, and shared downtown complex in advance can help you move efficiently once you arrive.

Entrances and Access: Main entrances front the Truxtun Avenue side of the complex. The arena, theater, and convention center are all part of the shared campus, so following event signage and staff direction helps you move toward the arena portion of the complex.

Concourse Levels: Seating is arranged in a standard arena bowl with lower-level seating and an upper tier. For concerts and other floor-configured events, floor seating may be added at arena level, changing the way the room is set up compared with hockey or sports events.

Accessibility: ADA-accessible seating, parking, and restroom facilities are available at Dignity Health Arena. Accessible seating locations can be arranged through the box office.

Getting to Your Section: Signage and event staff direct guests from the concourses to their sections. Larger events can create heavier concourse traffic, so checking your section before you enter the seating bowl can make the walk to your seats smoother.

Dining Options

Inside Dignity Health Arena

Concession stands inside Dignity Health Arena offer standard arena fare and beverages during events, including alcohol. Lines can be busiest close to event start time and during natural breaks, so buying food or drinks early can help you spend less time away from your seat.

Outside the Venue — Downtown Bakersfield

Downtown Bakersfield offers restaurants and bars within walking distance and a short drive of the arena. Additional dining options are located along the surrounding downtown blocks, making it practical to plan a meal before a concert, Condors game, or family event.

Security & Policies

Dignity Health Arena 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.

Bag Policy: Bag restrictions typically apply and can vary by event. Clear-bag or limited-bag policies may be enforced for certain events, so reviewing the event guidelines before packing helps prevent delays at entry.

Commonly Prohibited Items: Commonly restricted items include weapons, outside food and drink, professional cameras, and other items specified for the event.

Re-Entry: Re-entry is generally not permitted once guests exit. Re-entry rules can vary by event and are shown on the event listing.

How Much Do Tickets to Dignity Health Arena Cost?

Dignity Health Arena ticket prices vary widely depending on the type of event, the artist or team, seating section, and demand — which is what you'd expect from a venue that hosts everything from family shows and comedy to AHL hockey and major touring concerts.

For Bakersfield Condors AHL hockey games, tickets typically range from about $15 to $50, with price differences driven by seat location, opponent, day of week, and overall demand.

For concerts, mid-tier and touring acts typically range from about $30 to $100, with prices rising higher for marquee headliners and high-demand floor or lower-level seating.

For family shows and comedy events, tickets typically range from about $25 to $75, depending on the show, performance date, and seat location.

Buying earlier generally provides better seat selection and pricing for high-demand events. As inventory shrinks and the event date approaches, prices for the best remaining sections can rise, especially for popular concerts, weekend shows, and games with stronger demand.

Dignity Health Arena Seating Guide

Dignity Health Arena seating changes by event type, with a lower bowl and upper level for sports and many reserved events, plus floor seating added for concerts and other arena-floor configurations. Knowing how those areas compare helps you choose the right balance of view, proximity, and price.

Best Seats at Dignity Health Arena

• Best value: Upper-level sections are typically the most affordable areas in the arena while still offering a full view of the event.
• Closest to the action: Floor seats for concerts and lower-bowl rows nearest the ice or floor put you closest to the performance or game action.
• Best overall experience: Lower-level sections along the sides offer strong overall sightlines for both hockey and concerts, making them a solid choice for fans who want proximity without being directly on the floor.
• Premium and suite options: Premium seating and suite or group options are available for guests who want added comfort, privacy, or a coordinated experience.
• For groups: Groups can be accommodated through the box office, and choosing seats early helps larger parties find options together for high-demand events.
• General admission: Some events offer general admission, including certain floor or standing configurations, while reserved seating is standard for most events.

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

Can I See Where My Seats Are?

Yes. The interactive seat map on BoxOfficeTicketSales.com shows your exact section and row placement before you buy.

Getting Ready for Your Dignity Health Arena Event

Once your tickets are confirmed, a few practical preparations make your visit run significantly smoother — especially for popular events in downtown Bakersfield where parking lots can fill closer to start time.

• 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 arena 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. Downtown lots fill closer to start time for popular events, so give yourself extra time for parking, entry, and security.
• Wear the right footwear. Dignity Health Arena is a standard indoor arena with concourse ramps and stairs to upper-level seating, so supportive shoes are helpful if your seats require extra walking.
• Dress for the walk from parking. The venue is indoor and climate-controlled, but Bakersfield summers are hot, so plan for warm conditions before and after the event.
• Build extra time into your transit plan. Most attendees drive, and traffic around the downtown complex can be heavier before major shows and games.
• Know your entrance. Your section and concourse information help guide you once you arrive, and a quick look before getting to the building can save time at larger events.
• Check the bag policy in advance. Reviewing the venue's guidelines before packing prevents delays at security.
