About Stony Brook Arena

Stony Brook Arena is an indoor multi-purpose arena located on the Stony Brook University campus in Stony Brook, New York.

The venue is owned and operated by Stony Brook University within the State University of New York system and holds approximately 4,000 guests in its multi-purpose configuration.

The arena serves as the primary indoor athletics and events venue for Stony Brook University and is the home court for the Stony Brook Seawolves men's and women's basketball teams, both NCAA Division I programs in the Coastal Athletic Association.

How Much Do Tickets to Stony Brook Arena Cost?

Stony Brook 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 Seawolves basketball to concerts and special events.

For Stony Brook Seawolves men's and women's basketball games, tickets are often in the approximately $10–$40 range, with premium and courtside seating priced higher.

Stony Brook Arena Seating Guide

Best Seats at Stony Brook Arena

Getting Ready for Your Stony Brook Arena Event

Once your tickets are confirmed, a few practical preparations make your visit run significantly smoother — especially at a campus arena where parking, walking time, and event-day traffic can shape your arrival.

• 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. Give yourself extra time for campus parking and the walk to the arena, especially for well-attended basketball games.
• Dress for an indoor arena. Stony Brook Arena has a climate-controlled interior, so plan for indoor comfort once you are inside.
• Build extra time into your transit plan. Campus parking and pedestrian movement can take longer on high-attendance event nights, so an earlier arrival helps reduce last-minute stress.
• Check the bag policy in advance. Reviewing the venue's guidelines before packing prevents delays at security.
