Patsy was a pleasure to work with. They made sure everything went perfect for our wedding and reception. We had so many compliments on the food. We strongly recommend the pecan crusted chicken through their caterers. Everyone was very professional throughout the whole process. Would definitely recommend this venue to others!

Patsy and Barry were so great to work with! They were both very responsive to emails and phone calls which made the wedding planning experience a plus. Patsy has the nicest smile that can light up a room and make you feel very comfortable. Barry has a great sense of humor which we definitely appreciated! The Arena looked very nice and they accommodated our 150 person guest list perfectly! If you book the arena for your wedding, you are required to use their onsite catering. You should also book your rehearsal dinner there to save on cost. The food was simply amazing! Several guest have been asking about the catering and wanting to know how they could get more food. I even had a few wedding guest joking about a take home box. lol. Our dream wedding took place at the Cabarrus Arena and I am very thankful we chose this venue!
