Cumberland County Crown Coliseum

The Crown Coliseum (originally the Cumberland County Crown Coliseum) is a multi-purpose arena in Fayetteville, North Carolina that broke ground in 1995 and opened in 1997. It is currently home to the Fayetteville FireAntz ice hockey team and the Cape Fear Heroes indoor football team.

During the early stages of its construction, Fayetteville’s Crown Coliseum was mentioned as a possible temporary home for the NHL’s Carolina Hurricanes, but this was blocked by minor-league hockey executive Bill Coffey who had signed an exclusive lease agreement with the arena for the Fayetteville Force of the Central Hockey League.
