Donald L. Tucker Civic Center
Donald L. Tucker Center is a 12,100 seat multi-purpose arena in Tallahassee, Florida. The arena opened in 1981 and was built at a cost of $33.8 million. It is home to the Florida State University Seminoles basketball team. Before they moved, it was also host to the Tallahassee Tiger Sharks ice hockey team.
Formerly known as the Tallahassee-Leon County Civic Center, it was re-named, in accordance with a 2004 act of state legislation, in honor of Donald L. Tucker, a former Speaker of the Florida House of Representatives and Special Ambassador for the United States to the Dominican Republic.
As a concert venue, the Tucker Center can seat between 2,372 and 12,041. As a convention center, the Tucker Center can accommodate 18,900 square feet (1760 m²) in the main arena plus 35,000 square feet (3300 m²) at the adjoining exhibit hall, in addition to 16,000 square feet (1500 m²) of space at the meeting rooms. Concerts, sporting events, trade shows, Broadway shows, conventions, ice shows, circuses and other events are held here annually.
