Simmons Bank Arena

Simmons Bank Arena opened in 1999 on the North Little Rock side of the Arkansas River, giving central Arkansas a modern large-capacity room for concerts and sports. Its riverfront location ties it to both downtown Little Rock and the smaller Argenta district across the water.

Simmons Bank Arena is in North Little Rock's Argenta district. Drive, use rideshare or check current streetcar service from downtown Little Rock, but settle the river crossing before doors. A specific pickup point is useful once the crowd starts moving back toward the bridges.

Check the specific Simmons Bank Arena event page—not an old social post—for the active bag rule. Bring only essentials unless the venue explicitly allows a larger or clear bag for that performance.

Argenta has restaurants and bars within a short distance of the arena and is the easiest place to make the night feel less like a parking-lot trip. If you are staying in downtown Little Rock, check current streetcar service or use a planned rideshare rather than assuming the bridge walk fits your timing.
