  • The Verizon Wireless Arena is an indoor events arena in Manchester, New Hampshire, and seats just over 10,000 for ice hockey and just under 10,000 for basketball and some concerts. It is home to the Manchester Monarchs of the American Hockey League and the Manchester Wolves of af2. The University of New Hampshire men's hockey team also plays some of their home games there, annually against Dartmouth College in the battle for the Riverstone Cup, and less frequently against other Hockey East rivals. The Verizon has hosted the 2005 AHL All-Star Game, WWE Backlash in 2005, and the NCAA Men's Frozen Four Northeast Regional tournament in 2004, 2007 and 2009. UNH is scheduled to play host to the NCAA Ice Hockey Northeast Regional tournament again in 2011 and 2013. Both the Boston Celtics of the NBA and the Boston Bruins of the NHL regularly play preseason games at the arena. My Chemical Romance's "The Black Parade" tour was kicked off here. In December 2007, Sen. Barack Obama and Oprah Winfrey appeared at a campaign rally at the Verizon Wireless Arena, drawing over 8,000 people to one of the largest political events in New Hampshire history. Obama also appeared at the arena in May 2007 to speak at the Southern New Hampshire University commencement. Hillary Clinton also appeared at the arena in June 2007 to speak at the Manchester Central High School graduation. State high school basketball and hockey championships have been held in the arena, and the FIRST Robotics Competition holds its main regional competition, the BAE Systems Granite State Regional, in the arena every year. Verizon Wireless paid for the arena's naming rights. The facility was originally known simply as the Civic Arena, and this name still appears on most of the directional signs around town.
