About John Paul Jones Arena

John Paul Jones Arena

John Paul Jones Arena is a sports and entertainment venue on the campus of the University of Virginia in Charlottesville, Virginia. The venue primarily serves as the home court of the Virginia Cavaliers men’s and women’s college basketball teams. However, it’s also used for hosting concerts, pro wrestling, and other events, including Disney on Ice and Cirque du Soleil. John Paul Jones opened in 2006 and was financed by Virginia graduate Paul Tudor Jones, who used his naming rights to name the arena after his father John Paul Jones, who graduated from the University of Virginia School of Law. Contrary to popular belief, the venue is not named after the founder of the U.S. Navy, who is also named John Paul Jones. For both basketball games and concerts, John Paul Jones has a capacity of over 14,000 people.

Where are the Best Places to Sit at John Paul Jones Arena

For concerts and other performances, floor seats are available for those who want to be close to the stage. Otherwise, sections 102 and 114 are the closest sections to the stage.
