What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors praise the Mullins Center for its excellent sports viewing experience, clean facilities, and friendly staff. The quality of food at concessions is a standout, and the arena offers great sightlines for both hockey and basketball. However, parking logistics, particularly for men's games, can be a point of frustration for some attendees.
"We go to games occasionally and there are very good teams, but the only part I need you guys to fix if you could is that the parking issue for the men’s games are horrible. I don’t want to drive thirty minutes into campus and then have to walk all the way there in the cold. The parking behind the Mullins center should be open to everyone land move student parking somewhere else. That’s why I will not be renewing my season tickets."

"Parking is free and easy. Short walk to the arena. Tickets are very reasonable. Staff were friendly and helpful. The players were very kind and generous to our basketball team that we brought to watch the game."
Craig Itterl
"The Mullins Center is an excellent sports arena. It is great for watching both basketball and hockey. Sight lines are good from all the seats. No obstructed views anywhere in the stadium. Capacity for basketball is a little under 10,000. Rarely do that many people show up, making it a laid back and relaxing place to see a game. . The arena is exceptionally clean and easy to get around. The video board is one of the largest and best I have seen in any arena. There are plenty of crowd entertainment activities during breaks from the action. The national championship banner from the 2021 UMass National Champion Hockey team can be seen in the rafters. Make sure to see the retired numbers of basketball greats Julius Irving and Marcus Camby.
The food sold at the concession stands is exceptional. Arguably, the best you can get at any stadium. There is a team merchandise/NIL store located in the arena. Prices at the concession stand and merchandise store are one par with most other stadiums.
Parking is very easy and free. There is only a small walk to the stadium after parking. Tickets are affordable and can be purchased online. With their online tickets, some of the seats that are located further away from the court are not for sale. If you want you can move to these seats, without a problem. Definitely, a nice comfortable arena that any sports fan will enjoy."
