Colonial Life Arena

The Colonial Life Arena is a multi-purpose arena in Columbia, South Carolina, primarily home to the University of South Carolina men's and women's basketball teams. Opened as a replacement for the Carolina Coliseum with the name Carolina Center in 2002, the 18,000 seat arena is also host to various events like conferences, concerts, and graduation ceremonies throughout the year. It is the largest arena in the state of South Carolina and the tenth largest college arena.
The naming rights were acquired in 2003 by Colonial Life & Accident Insurance Company of Columbia, a subsidiary of Chattanooga, Tennessee-based insurance company Unum, and it was renamed to the Colonial Center. On July 22, 2008, the USC board approved renaming the building to the Colonial Life Arena as part of a rebranding by Colonial Life.
