McCann Arena

I enjoy coming here to see the Marist Men’s Basketball team get their game on. It’s a nicely sized area and the tickets are extremely inexpensive for seeing a Division 1 team of any kind. No matter where you sit, the view is always good and I’ve sat in a lot of spots here. Sure, they don’t win as many games was one would like but realistically, these are the best ballers in our area. I considered going to Marist but I wanted to go away for college. Any event at the McCann Arena is fun and worthwhile. I saw an Everclear concert here about 10 years ago. Check out a game and have a good time.

March Madness is just around the corner and with College Basketball coming to a season end; what better way to catch a live game than at McCann Arena, home to The Red Foxes of Marist.
McCann Arena is located on the campus of Marist College in Poughkeepsie, New York. It seats about 3,200 fans and there is not a bad seat in the house. The men’s and women basketball team play all their home games there.
I took in a game yesterday with the wife and seat behind the home basket, 2^nd row aisle. Awesome seats and for $ 12 each, not a bad deal.
Parking is free, but if you get there 15 minutes before game time your parking all the way down the other side of campus. The campus is hilly and it is a nice hike to the arena. They do have a free shuttle service that takes you to the front door of the arena.
Food options are limited; hot dogs, pretzels, pizza, soda and water. No adult beverages, only for The Red Fox Den members, a booster club.
If you want to support local college basketball, McCann Arena is as good as it gets. Affordable tickets, free parking, easy to get to and if your lucky a Marist Victory.
