Sun Dome Arena
![]() |
| The Sun Dome is the big one, but the Tampa campus has 200+ major buildings, including the Moffitt Cancer Center, Public Health Center, and the Student Union. |
Located on the University of South Florida campus in Tampa is 10,400+ seat multi-level Sun Dome Arena. The arena is a key element for USF, by hosting the varied recreational, social, intercollegiate, and cultural interests of the campus through its recreational events. It is the center group-meeting hub for students, athletes, and staff to get together and rally in a non-academic environment.
The Dome is used as the USF Bulls sport's arena, for basketball, volleyball, gymnastics, etc. In addition to sporting events, the Sun Dome Arena host's major concerts, bands, regional events, rodeos, exhibitions, corporate events, ceremonies, and more.
The Sun Dome was one of the few arenas in the United States to be created with an inflated roof. That was fixed, as a steel supported hard roof replaced the outdated air-supported roof. The arena and flooring can be re-configured in many ways to handle a bunch of different events types as needed, for example, main floor level seating for boxing matches.
