    Rupp Arena has an atmosphere like no other no matter what kind of event you are there to see....and of course nothing beats basketball in Rupp. I recently attended the Brad Paisley concert and had a great time, it was a great show.
  • I would LOVE to see Taylor Swift again!
  • steph_ky_86

  • I have been to several events at Rupp. I attended my first concert there, the Dixie Chicks, in 2000. Since then I have seen Kenny Chesney (several times), Montgomery Gentry, Martina McBride, Allan Jackson, Tim McGraw, Faith Hill, Sugarland, Toby Keith, Dierks Bentley, and Keith Urban to name a few. I have also attended many UK games, which are always amazing and full of excitement. The circus has been fun the couple of times I have been. I love living in Lexington and having so many entertainers come to Rupp. I would love to see Kenny Chesney come back to Rupp.
  • r. pickering
    I've been attending events at Rupp since I was a pup. Now I have a litter of my own and every single one loves to go to Rupp. Rupp makes Lexington Rock!

    Rupp is GREAT. My favorite event there so far has been Disney on Ice. My children loved it! They were like WOW Mom this is where they play basketball on TV...are we on TV too Mom? They are 6 and 5 and are anticipating this years ice show as well.
  • danmanteuffel
    Would love to aee the Rolling Stones and/or The Police
  • Of all the concerts I've seen at Rupp, I'd have to say Keith Urban has been my favorite performer by far. And of course, nothing compares to the year we had lower arena (row F!) season basketball tickets...and the atmosphere when we beat Florida at home in 2002. Would love to take my daughter to see Taylor Swift!
  • tryshthompson
    I've seen so many great events at Rupp, it's hard to choose just one.

    If I had to choose one, it would be UK-Georgia in 1999, simply because it was my first UK game. Nothing beats the atmosphere at a UK game.
  • my kids loved the miley cyrus and would absolutely love taylor swift!!!!
  • Loved Dierks Bentley, would love to see Bonnie Raitt or Eric Clapton!
  • shale03
    Oh my, how would I ever pick "my favorite show", I have seen so many! I guess I would start with George Strait 1996, Tina Turner, Bob Segar, Rod Stewart, New Kids on the Block 1989-1990(way back when!!), UK Basketball, the hockey team, Tim McGraw 2004, Dixie Chicks and all the truck pulls (that my brother used to pull in!). I would love to see Tim McGraw w/ Lady A, George Strait again, the upcoming Boys Sweet Sixteen (as long as we make it that far!).
  • I would love to go to some uk basketball games or next season's BIG BLUE MADDNESS where the seats are not way up at the top. (I am afraid of heights) go figure.
    My favorite event at Rupp would have to be the backstreet boys when I was little. I know I know but it was pretty amazing. I still sing the songs when they randomly come on the radio or me and my friends have a old cd moment =]
  • dhensley
    We're getting better all the time!!!
  • Chrissy Wright
    love going to rupp for uk games and college game day a couple of weeks ago. would love to see BonJovi come back to rupp.

  • Kristen
    I have been to Rupp Arena countless times and so far in 2010 I have been for the Brad Paisley concert and ESPN College GameDay! They were both completely awesome!!!
  • Shane Barmore
    My favorite moment in Rupp? Saw that 28-2 run our CATS put on the UNC Tarheels. Loud is NOT the word!
  • jaelynross
    I would love to win tickets to the "Taylor Swift" concert. I have never been to a concert before. And I really like Taylor Swift. I've only been to Rupp once and that was to watch a UK game. I would really like to go back!
  • kishacombs
    Besides the one UK game that I was ablet to get tickets for, I would say my greatest time at Rupp Arena would have to be when I watched Toby Keith!! He was awesome!!
  • sbrat
    P!nk! Please bring her to Rupp Arena.
  • Lisa
    Some of my favorite events at Rupp was the last time Garth Brooks was here and also the last time George Strait was here. Awesome!! I would love to Bon Jovi or Jimmy Buffet to play Rupp.
  • meagandiane
    I'm so excited because my top demand for Rupp Arena is Taylor Swift, and she's coming! So you guys already took care of mine, but no tickets :(

    Also, I think it would be awesome to get Beyonce :)
  • cathyreveal
    We recently attended the Black Eyed Peas concert and had a great time!
  • ucdawgs22

  • ucdawgs22
    My kids would love to See Nick Jonas and the Adminstration
  • Brittany
    Of course I am a HUGE Kentucky Wildcats fan, so Big Blue Madness and UK games are always great! However, if we're talking concerts, hands down best concert I've ever seen is Brad Paisley right here at Rupp Arena! I have seen him twice, including his most recent show in January, and I can't wait until he comes back!
  • entertainment4u
    I would like to see Bob Seger back again. My all time favorite
  • kathyginn
    My earliest memories of Rupp Arena included concerts of Neil Diamond, Kris Kristofferson and Willie Nelson in the 70's. With my kids, I recall the circus and Sesame Street and then high school graduations. I look forward to future great entertainment like Tim, Carrie, and Brad!
  • melaniefowler
    We enjoyed Disney on Ice a couple of years ago at Rupp, it was great!
  • poohburkett
    My family and I have attended several events at Rupp including Disney on Ice, The Rockettes, Circus, the Miley Cyrus concert, and more but I have to say the MY MOST MEMORABLE EVENT WAS THE NIGHT MY HUSBAND PROPOSED TO ME AT A THOURGHBREDS HOCKEY GAME 10 YEARS AGO. I always wanted a t-shirt from the Bud Ice Patrol however that night they made a memory for me I would never forget. The t-shirt I got from them has "Will you marry me on it". Thanks Rupp for the memory! We attended a lot of hockey games and was sad to see them go and would loved to have them back. Now we have a 5 year old who loves Taylor Swift and would love to win tickets for her.
  • saswope
    Love, love to go to the Taylor Swift Concert. My best concert ever at Rupp was the Garth Brooks / Trish Yearwood concert back in the 90's. First concert ever was Def Leppard at Rupp in 1992.
  • annehelmers
    Loved Pearl Jam!
  • Redskinboy
    I would love to see DMB fill up RUPP!!!
  • AnneG88
    Brad Paisley was great,...can't wait for Tim McGraw!
  • andreamullins
    I attended both the Brad Paisley and Dierks Bentley concerts this year and had a great time at both! Rupp is a great venue for concerts, and I look forward to attending more concerts, events, etc. in the future. A guest that I would love to see come to Rupp is Jerry Seinfeld. He came to the Louisville Palace last year and was very entertaining! The Palace was packed. Rupp may be too big of a venue for him, but if it could be trimmed down in size like it was for the Dierks concert, it might be perfect for him!
  • csschi0
    Loved seeing NIN here a few years ago!
  • I really enjoyed Linkin Park, I've been to both of their concerts when they came to Rupp. More Linkin Park Please!

    I also really enjoyed Blue Man Group, please bring them back!

    I would like to see Celtic Women, they always come to Freedom Hall but I like Rupp better!
  • The Jonas Brothers Concert was so amazing at Rupp Arena
  • angelarison
    Can't wait for WinterJam this year on March 13th. Would love to see Amy Grant come back here, when she tours again.

  • tabithaflorence
    I love going to all the disney on ice or the circus!! But the best show I ever went to was Garth Brooks!!!
  • craiggreer
    My favorite was Linkin Park!!
  • The UK Basketball Games are the only thing I have ever seen at Rupp. They were incredible! I hope to take my family to other events in the future.
  • One of my favorite events was the Tim Mcgraw/Faith Hill Soul2Soul concert in 2006 and I liked to see George Strait come back to Rupp again.
  • I loved the Black Eyed Eyes concert a couple weeks ago, it was amazing!!!!!
  • nicholastaden
    Saw Breaking Benjamin and Three Days Grace - definitely one of the more fun concerts I've been to at Rupp! I remember going there to see the Throughblades when I was little and I still go to see the UK basketball games in eRUPPtion Zone!
  • The kids and I have attended just about all the family shows (Disney on Ice, Sesame Street, etc..) for the past 6 years when they come to town. We re-arrange our schedules so we can attend!
  • katyhead
    I'm so excited about Tim McGraw this Friday! It's gonna be an AWESOME show. However, the show I'm most excited about is TAYLOR SWIFT! I'm her biggest fan! :)
  • robwagner
    Loved Bob Seger a few years ago, but the Rockette's Christmas show was the best show at Rupp I have ever seen. The Bluemen are a close second!
  • Loved Def Leppard a few years back. Would like to see more country shows though! :)
  • I dunno if this is the right way to comment back on this but I will say that all of the events I have been to at Rupp and at one point worked there too have been wonderful. It's not just the shows that make it great. Some of the employees have been there for years always taking care of the crowds. Kudos to the employees at Rupp!!!!
  • chelsealockhart
    I saw Miley Cyrus, Brad Paisley, George Strait and numerous UK games at Rupp. I'd love to see Taylor Swift there too!!
  • charlotte2
    My favorite was the Blue White scrimmage this year. It was my first time being in Rupp to see Kentucky basketball in action, and it was amazing
  • My favorite event that i have seen so far a Rupp Arena is the Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus concert. I took my daughter and she really had a great time. She also really likes Taylor Swift and we have been unable to get tickets to see her, so I hope we can win these. Rupp Arena rocks!!!
  • dkbain
    Maria, I have a pair of Taylor Swift tickets for the Rupp show I'd sell you. They're lousy seats though. At cost. I live in Vermont though. dkbainvt@gmail.com
  • dwaynestevens
    I have been blessed to have attended many awesome events at Rupp Arena over the past 15 years, but I think my favorite was a Casting Crowns concert in November 2007.
  • amethyst213
    The best concert I attended at Rupp Arena was the Nickelback Concert. My daughter and I had floor tickets and it was great to be close to the band!! The show was awesome!!

  • I saw Keith Urban at Rupp and he was awesome. Incredible entertainer.
  • auddieann08
    I have been to a couple of really great concerts at Rupp, but I would have to say Sugeland was my favorite by far. Also I can not even describe how excited I am about the Carrie Underwood Play On concert in June.
  • misfit1842
    I just went and seen the Hot Rod Winter Internationals there last weekend. It was great I just Love Rupp.
  • My favorite concert at Rupp Arena would have to be the Rascal Flatts concert last year; it was amazing. Lexington had just had a big ice storm and my mother-in-law, sister-in-law, and I decided to brave the ice and go anyway, and we were so glad we did. The music and the special effects at the concert were phenomenal. I can't wait until Rascal Flatts come back to Rupp Arena!
  • jodon812
    I really loved Rascal Flatts. I would like to see them again.
  • donaldkessler
    My daughters hero is Taylor Swift. They would love to see her in concert at Rupp Arena.
  • christykessler
    Rupp Arena is the cornerstone of this great Commonwealth. I have been to many events at Rupp. The ultimate experience for me has been watching the CATS at Rupp Arena.

    I would LOVE to see Pearl Jam come to Rupp!
  • Chastity S.
    Beside UK Basketball. GO CATS!!! I would love to see Lady Gaga or Nickleback at Rupp Arena. They are both great Artists. Rupp Arena is like the best place to see a show. My first concert there was PINK opening up for N'SYNC. That was a awesome concert back in the day.
  • obviously the UK games are the best thing in Rupp...but a concert i liked there was Dierks Bentley, and i also like the freestyle motocross event...of course i would love to see Tay Swift but another event i would like to see would be an AMA motocross race or Drake in concert!!!
  • I have enjoyed so many events at Rupp. Uk games, concerts, Disney on Ice and moster truck andd tractor pulls! there is always so much quality enterainment at Rupp Arena!!
  • Danny Roberts
    Favorite show at Rupp is a tie between Phish in '96 and Jimmy Page/Robert Plant in '95.
  • jessicamckenzie
    The Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus/Jonas Brothers best of both worlds tour was my favorite event I attended at Rupp Arena. I think they should totally have Skillet there in the future!

    UK Basketball is great, but my 3 year old daughter and I really had a great time when the circus came to Rupp!
  • jguffey
    I have a tie between my favorite events at Rupp. The first being The Radio City Rockettes this past December. They were AMAZING and now my career goal is to be a rockette. The other was the Linkin Park/Coheed and Cambria/Chiodos show February 25, 2008. I wear the shirt Chiodos signed for me there once a year, [feb.25 hah]. Both events were awesome, and I really would like to see Taylor Swift! I mean who wouldn't?(: . I think Lil Wayne should come to Rupp Arena. Either him or Pitbull. That'd be good.
  • sherriwilliams
    I think my favorite concert would have to be Cher. I've enjoyed many, many concerts there, and up until last year, really enjoyed Toyota's perfect attendance parties there, as well. I also took my son a couple of years ago to see Miley Cyrus, and I really appreciated the conference room that was set up for the parents, so more kids could attend the event. The parents were even allowed to go to get their kids just before the concert ended, so they wouldn't get lost. Thanks Rupp.

    I just love being at Rupp! I love going to the basketball games. A recent favorite was ESPN College Gameday! It was so exciting! A past favorite was seeing George Strait. However, seeing Taylor Swift would most probably top them all!
  • bigbluelex
    I have been attending events, mainly UK basketball games, in Rupp Arena for some 30 years now. I think outside of the games, the most memorable time in Rupp was 3 straight nights of Garth Brooks. Each night was a little different show, with Sunday night being SO cool. Garth came out at the end and sat down onstage with just his guitar and sang a couple tunes, including Alabama Clay. I think Rupp is one of the better big venues for concerts and I hope acts continue to be drawn to Lexington.
  • rlalln2
    My favorite event that I went to at Rupp Arena besides all of the UK basketball games I've been to is the Keith Urban/Carrie Underwood concert that I went to! It was one of the best concerts I've been to! They need to come back together!! =)

  • I would love to see Taylor Swift, shes an amazing artist with an awesome, awesome purpose. She as a teen artist is such an inspiration. Aside from Taylor, the Piano Man himself, Billy Joel would be an incredible concert, because of his stage presence I do believe he is one of the greatest performers of all time. Also, aside from music, the WWE has not had a Monday night event here in qutie some time, so if the entire Monday Night Raw Crew came to town, the place would be full of excitement.
  • Megan Bragg
    My favorite Rupp Arena event was the Jonas Brothers World Tour 2009! It was awesome, and Rupp Arena is always a great venue to see different events at :)

  • Andy Woods
    Garth Brooks concert- many moons ago...
  • sherryodowd
    When I took my daughter to her first ever concert, it was to Rupp to see Kenny Chesney. We were happy enough with our lower level seats, but there was a blimp flying overhead dropping out envelopes. After Sugarland played, my daughter caught an envelope! We were then able to go right up to the stage where we saw Dierks Bentley and Kenny Chesney. I will never forget that night. It was awesome to see the crowds of people and I did my best to soak in the feeling of being so close and the energy of all the people there. Also....when we saw Keith Urban when he was here last, a man leaving the concert after Carrie Underwood's set, gave me 2 floor tickets, 5th row, as he left. Again, my daughter and I enjoyed a great concert up close....another pleasant surprise! Yeah, we love Rupp Arena!
  • Skeeter841

  • I absolutely love Taylor Swift! Awesome choice in having her come to Rupp. I would also love to have Keith Urban come again: now that was a blast!! :) Some other acts to bring to the stage should be Faith Hill or Sara Evans. Martina McBride as well. Hope to get to see Carrie Underwood as well.
  • johnwooten
    Rupp is the best place to watch a college basketball game! GO CATS!
  • Had a GREAT time at the BEP's! One of the best concert performances I've seen!
  • Favorite event was the UK v. UL basketball game this past January. Although I can say I have been attending events at Rupp since 1980!! Showing my age, huh?
  • jenniferlee2
    Love it ! Every event I have been to there has been so much fun! Took my daughters to the Miley Cyrus they had a blast !
  • Watching UK beat Shaq and Chris Jackson was by far my best memory @Rupp!
  • slazzari
    Too many great concerts to pick a favorite - but I am looking forward to Tim McGraw on Friday!!!
  • tabor40
    The best event I've been to at Rupp was the year Indiana beat Duke in the Men's NCAA Sweet 16!!! As a true-BLUE Kentucky fan, the only thing better than seeing UK win, is for Duke to lose!!!
  • nalarach
    My favorite Rupp memory was taking my daughter, then 7, to see Hannah Montana! It was so hard to get tickets, but it was worth the stress! The pre-concert makeover at Libby Lu's followed by dinner with Hannah Montana look-alikes everywhere! Now she's an even bigger Taylor Swift fan! In fact, insists on moving to Nashville for college someday so that she can be a singer like Taylor = )
  • Best show so far -- The Jonas Brothers World Tour 2009 :)
  • Missy Lindon
    Besides watching the cats, I really enjoyed Nickleback. Been to lots of shows at rupp, loved them all

  • jamesfannin
    My favorite non UK basketball event in Rupp Arena that I attended was Tim McGraw & Martina McBride in concert together probably 10 - 12 years ago now. That was such an outstanding concert.

    My wife would love to see Rob Zombie in concert so having him at Rupp would be a way for me to get my wife to take the 6 1/2 hour trip so I can come back to Lexington and visit some of my old hangouts from when I went to UK.

    Thanks
  • crorie
    I want to see the CATS!!!!!!!

  • Clayton Gorton
    Linkin Park has been a blast at Rupp and I'd like to see Three Days Grace here
  • I LOVED going to Big Blue Madness! I had just moved to Lexington from Salt Lake City Utah 1 month before, camped out for 3 days, and had 2nd row seating! It was amazing and I would do it over and over again the experience was wonderful! I've also already got tickets to Tim McGraw this Friday and really excited about that!! And you should totally get Garth Brooks, and not charge a fortune, but I'd pay anything! :)

  • I worse concert i was ever at was the miley cyrus concert. Her brother opened the show and omg I didn;t know what to think. He takes his shirt off and talks about how we are equal referring to his tatoo's. Sorry but tatoo's doesn't make us equal.
  • andreabrowning
    I love taylor swift she makes me think that all my dream will come true
  • Easily the best event I have ever attended was last year's UK/Florida game. The rare emotion and noise in that building, on that night hasn't been rivaled by any event I've been to before or since.
  • saulrivas
    One of my favorites events I have attended was the Black Eyed Peas Concert. It was awesome!! ...
    The fact that a group of that magnitude coming to Lexington was great, They treated their fans great and Hopefully they would come again.

  • betseysmith
    i'd like to see cirque du soleil or the lion king come
  • CariP
    Kenny Chesney, Miley Cyrus, they were both great! Would like to see Kenny come back when he starts touring again....
  • marleym
    My favorite concert at Rupp has been George Strait in 2008, because I took my mom and it made twenty-two years since she watched King George at Rupp and in 1986 she was also very pregnant with me, it was just something special for both of us and George puts on a fantastic show. I also saw George before this concert when he brought Taylor Swift along with him and Ronnie Milsap, she was just starting, Tim Mcgraw was her big hit at the time and after the show she stood near the merchandise stand to meet everyone who wanted an autograph or picture, it's amazing to see her headline her own tour, it'd be great to see what she learned from those she opened for, including George. :)
  • edmueller
    My Daughter loves Taylor Swift. She saw Miley and would love to see Justin Beiber. Thanks.
  • melissaeades

    My favorite event I went to at the rupp was James Otto, Lynard Skynard, and Hank Williams Jr. It was awesome!!
  • candicegallagher
    I think that my fav. event would have been a couple years back when Nine Inch Nails were there! The energy that day at rupp was amazing!!!!! I went with my old brother and now that NIN isnt touring anymore, we are glad that we got to see them together at rupp!
  • The best stage show performance in Rupp recently was the Blackeyed Peas Concert. This was their first time at Rupp and the turnout was great. They should make a trip back but have a different band playing with them. Ludacris was ok, but the first band was horrible. I would love to see BON JOVI come to Rupp...

    My favorite Rupp Arena event I have attended was the Backstreet Boys concert on November 26,1999. I was 12 years old and I won a service award and got to meet them. It was one of the biggest days of my life. Even though I am a die hard Card, Rupp Arena will always hold a special place in my heart because of that event.

    ABSOLUTELY LOVE RUPP!!!!

    Rascal Flatts! Always an awesome show! I too saw Prince many years ago and it was a great concert.
  • I want to go to anything at Rupp Arena!!! I have never been to Rupp Arena and would like to share my first experience with my children. I want to win something from your contest. My daughter loves Taylor Swift and Carrie Underwood and we are hoping to come to one or the other.
  • My twin sister and I went to see BEP just recently and had a WONDERFUL time! What a great concert!
    I would LOVE to take my 19 year old daughter to her very first concert and she REALLY like Taylor Swift! Maybe I'll get lucky and with the tickets package and be able to surprise her!
  • smittbird

  • drewmartin
    i was standing in the very front of the Kings of Leon concert and it had to be one of the best shows i've ever been to.. and i always enjoy watching the wildcats play.
  • Rupp Arena is a great venue for concerts and we all know that the high energy excitement at UK basketball games can't be beat! I love this place!
  • I really enjoyed both Garth Brooks concerts I went to back in the 90's. I always, always love to see the Uk Wildcats anytime I can get tickets. They are the best!
  • amberbullock
    Honestly the best concert I ever attended at Rupp was the Backstreet Boys. It was my first concert ever, and I loved it!
  • PreemieSunshine
    I haven't been able to see Taylor Swift in concert ever and would absolutely love to!!!

  • I loved seeing Audio Adrenaline. I am hoping to see Taylor Swift.
  • I have been to Rupp Arena for a lot of events, concerts, UK games, children's events. Everything has been good. The atmosphere is great during UK games!
  • 9melissagail
    Went to the Black Eyed Peas concert and it was the best concert ever!
  • desireeharned
    I love all the UK games of course, Blue and white night was the best, seeing my three year old at the time, eyes light up to see the players up close was awesome. My other daughter 7 got to see the Jonas Brothers and Jorin Sparks and that was enough to make a moms heart glow with excitment. But my most memorable time at Rupp arena was in 2001 WWF was there and for the first time I got to see some child hood heroes on stage and things that I had grown up with come to life. It was my first year in college and at UK no less and I dragged my soon to be husband to his first wrestling event. To be in Rupp Arena a place of greatness not only for UK basketball and all of its history but also a place of great concerts and family outings. It was magical and one again an awesome experience. GO CATS!!!! I would love to see Brooks and Dunn, Eric Clapton, or The Eagles if they were to ever tour down this way!
  • aeb52705
    I would love to see Michael Bublé at Rupp Arena! I love UK B-ball and the concerts I have attended there. My first concert at RA was Whitney Houston when I was 13,17 years ago!
  • jessicacrouch
    I really wanted to get to see Tim McGraw, but didn't get tickets. I'd like for the rodeo, not just PBR to come back to Rupp.
  • Lauren Quandahl
    I loved the Kings of Leon concert !
  • richarddezarn
    I think Rupp Arena is an awesome place. They have just about anything for anyone who wants to go there, from basketball games to rodeos to gospel concerts and all the entertainment options in between.

    It always feels like a grand atmosphere when you just go inside the place. I am glad Lexington has such a place for us to go to see people and things a lot of us might not get to see otherwise if we had to travel to another city.

    Thanks Rupp Arena!
  • lroark
    My favorite memory in Rupp was when UK play North Carolina and Prince came out and scored the first 15 points of the game with 5 three pointers. Rupp was really rockin' - the most excitement and loudest crowd I ever heard in Rupp. 2nd would be Alan Jackson and Alabama concerts and then all UK basketball games are great. I love the CATS!!! Go Blue!
  • ukblue1221
    Bring in Shinedown!!!

  • manzanitahumphrey
    My favorite Rupp Arena event was George Strait. My grown daughter really loves him, and she lives in Ohio. We do not get to spend too much quality time together any more. I bought the tickets and she came down to go with me. It was such a good time. I enjoyed the fact that he has his stage set up to allow everyone in the arena a chance to see his performance. Great show - one I will never forget!
  • Jessica Martin
    UK home games are awesome! I would love to see Jason Aldean again!

  • jlhayes10
    My first UK basketball game was pretty awesome. Another of my favorite shows that I have seen at Rupp was Winter Jam 2008. It was an awesome experience to share with my family and friends and I believe that is what Rupp is all about, sharing experiences with our favorite people. Lexington, and us people of Kentucky are so fortunate to have Rupp Arena.
  • ashleigh3108
    my favorite events were the three days grace, slipknot, and nickleback concerts.

    I HEART RUPP ARENA!! I would have to say that the top concerts I've been to at Rupp Arena would have to be Limp Bizkit, Garth Brooks, Linkin Park and Three Days Grace. Keep em coming Rupp! Good luck on reaching 20,000!!!!
  • minnielyn
    NICKELBACK rocks! Saw them last year and it was awesom!!
  • I love watching UK Basketball games, concert wise would have to be U2 and Prince the Purple Rain Tour.
  • ericans_20
    There have been lots of great memories at Rupp. By far out of the all the concerts and events that I have attended Sugarland's concert in October 2008 had to be by far the best yet! The filmed the whole concert live and had music videos from the concert; it was Awesome! I was a few rows back from where Kristian Bush gave away his guitar! Oh and I must say- Tim McGraw here I come on Friday...and Disney on Ice March 25th.
  • Sheila Burris

  • rachaelberry
    I have several memories from Rupp Arena, but my favorite would have to be the Tim McGraw concert in 2006, I think. I went to the concert with some friends and we had an awesome time. We went to Redmonds after the concert and one of the girls I was with realized she left her camera in Rupp. She ran back over to Rupp to see if she could find it, but it was gone. Well, 6 month after the concert we were in Chinoe Pub and a random girl came up to my husband and said "Hey I have pictures of you from the Tim McGraw concert". Confused as to why some random would have pictures of him, he came over to us and told us the what had happened. None of us thought anything of it at first and then out of the blue my friend yells "my camera!" Sure enough, this girl had found my friends camera and had developed the pictures and just happened to have the pics with her that night. So, 6 months after the concert my friend got her pics from the Tim McGraw concert from some random girl that found her camera. Crazy huh? I think it has something to do with Rupp Arena luck! GO CATS!
    P.S. I would love to take my niece to see Taylor Swift... she just told me Saturday how much she loves her. I promise not to lose my camera.

    every memory i have at rupp as been something i can never forget. my graduation, attending the miley cyrus/metro station concert with my little brothers (it was the first concert i took them too and they had a blast), and the circus for my youngest brothers birthday, where we had a whole row of guests with us to celebrate his 10th birthday. i cant decide which is my favorite because they are all very meaningful to me. :) i would love if the jonas brothers came back, i missed that concert.

    I must say the best thing I've seen at Rupp was a UK game, although the kids loved the circus.
  • tony

  • ahoov
    I would love to take my 3YO daughter, Courtlyn to see her first concert and would love for that concert to be Taylor Swift! She's a huge fan of country music, but especially Taylor Swift.

    The fact that Rupp brought the Black Eyed Peas to Lexington was AMAZING!
  • shekay
    One of my favorite events was Black Eyed Peas. Saw it last week and it was awesome. And i sure would love to see Taylor Swift alot.
  • stevegvs
    There is nothing in the world like the "Big Bertha" speaker system hanging down in the middle of Rupp. The first time I took our kids, our six year old saw it and was too scared to go to our seats. We had to watch the first 30 minutes from the concourse! At nineteen he's over that now. The only thing he is scared of now is that Wall and Cousins will both have an off night at the same time!
  • Kevin
    I'd like to see Daughtry
  • Go BLUE!!!!!!!!
  • greta613
    My favorite event at Rupp was the Hannah Montana concert with my 5 yr old...was her 1st concert
  • lauramancuso
    Hoping Taylor Swift will be our favorite!! I usually end up going to Elmo live or Disney on Ice...so, I'll have to say my kids have fun EVERY time they get to go to Rupp Arena and my daughters favorite was Miley Cirus.
  • kristislone
    my favorite memory of rupp was going with my brother, parents, and a friend to watch wrestling event, it was in the 90's, i remember the match of hulk hogan vs. mancho man, and it felt like the whole arena was shaking, the fans were going wild, i was about 5 at the time, and was amazed!!

  • shekay
    ONE OF MY FAVORITE CONCERTS I HAVE WENT AND SAW AS BLACK EYED PEAS LAST WEEK, IT WAS AWESOME. AND WOULD LOVE TO GO AND SEE TAYLOR SWIFT TOO!!!!
  • The best event we have ever attended there would have to be the Kentucky Wildcat basketball game. We are huge fans but what really made it so awesome was it happened to be the last game I was able to go to with my grand-dad who past away with cancer. So it was by far the best. But I would love to watch Taylor Swift in concert.
  • HDCJR
    I would love to see a big name rock show come to Rupp. Someone like Kiss would be perfect. They always put a great show on and always attract large crowds. Rupp has done a great job lately of attracting great shows for teen age kids. My daughter is loving the fact that shows from the Jonas Bros, Taylor Swift, and Black Eye Peas are coming to Lexington instead of the bigger market cities. Keep up the great job that you guys do.
  • Barkclay

  • tarakinnel
    Most memorable, not including the Cats playing basketball of course, would be Garth Brooks in 1993.

  • I have to been to many games and concerts at rupp since i was a little kid but my fave by far was Three Days Grace, Breaking Benjamin, and Flyleaf concert. They were AMAZING! Haha i lost my voice for about two days but well worth it!
  • I love anything that I can take my daughter too. She loved Miley Cyrus and really wants to see Taylor Swift. Rupp always has good choices in shows to attend.
  • nolitacoleman
    My first & best memory of Rupp Arena was going to see Hannah Montana & the Jonas Bro's with my little girl when she was 4...Had a blast!! It was mine & her first concert! We then went to see the Cheetah Girls the following year...again, what an awesome show & experience! She's a HUGE Taylor Swift fan & would LOVE to go see her but funds are tight right now & we just can't afford tickets...Oh yeah...we also LOVE watching those UK CATS on TV every week!! GO BIG BLUE!!!

  • I would love to see Brooks & Dunn again at Rupp Arena. It has been way to long since this great duo has rocked the rafters at Rupp. 2010 is to be their last year touring together.

  • marilynadams
    Love what you've done with this page. It's easy to read, informative, nice layout, keep up the good work. Now if you'd only get "Josh Groban" down to the arena, I think he would sell very well. Thanks.
  • Would love to see Scissor Sisters!!! Since one of their members is from Lex, I think it would be a great concert!

    Of course, favorite event(s) at Rupp is UK Basketball!
  • sarahakers
    I saw Keith Urban at Rupp and have loved him and Rupp ever since!!
  • Joe Lyman
    My daughters would say they want more Disney on Ice, but I'll take Black Crowes.
  • Would have to say Jonas Brothers! The center stage layout made all the seats in the arena better. They engaged the audiance and even took time read the posters from the fans, which brought more screams!! Wish more perforers could use the center stage layout and connect with the audiance like they did. It was a great concert, my daughters had an amazing time (and so did I)!
  • cjarro
    I attended the best concert of my life in Rupp Arena... The Black Eyed Peas E.N.D. Tour was exceptional! I will like to see more rock concerts like Green Day, Bon Jovi, or Aerosmith!

  • marilynadams
    I think this site is very good, informative, nice layout, easy-to-ready, accessible. Good Job. The only thing that could make it better is to get "Josh Groban" here to perform. I think he would do really well in this arena. Thanks.

  • lisabrock
    My family and I have been attending Rupp Arena Events for years! Anytime there was anything at Rupp for children we took the kids. We took them to stuff like Disney on Ice, Sesame Street on Ice, and the Circus. When I have grandchildren I'll be able to take them. We also went to see people like Franklin Graham and we got to hear Kirk Franklin, and Michael W. Smith. I love all the contemporary concerts you've held with people like; Three Days Grace, Mercy Me, Casting Crowns, and Flyleaf. My oldest daughter just went and saw Brad Pasley and Miranda Lambert. She loved it! She's been to several concerts there with friends. My middle child (Cindy) however, hasn't been to many. She's worked really hard this year to get her grades up and I would love to send her to Taylor's concert. Talyor seems like a nice young lady from what I've seen on TV. Thank you SO much Rupp Arena for being a part of our families lives and helping us to create wonderful memories.

  • billiehumphrey
    My 7 year old daughter absolutely loves Taylor Swift, and we would be ecstatic to win tickets to the concert (since we tried to buy them but they were sold out)! She once told me that if she went to American Idol and sang they would think she was Taylor Swift and she would go to Hollywood! Our favorite event that we have attended at Rupp was actually Disney on Ice because we never knew what to expect and she learned a lot about the characters I loved when I was her age. :)
  • hilltopperswku
    My favorite event that I've seen at Rupp was UK Basketball this year. I would love to see a combination of Thrid Day, MercyMe, and Casting Crowns at Rupp in one night.

  • brynaR
    I've enjoyed many things at Rupp. However, I think one of the best memories that I have of Rupp is in 1994 when Tates Creek High school was playing in the sweet 16. That place was so loud and everyone had a great time.

    I've seen some fun concerts too. My first was INXS and that was fabulous! I took my daughter to ...see Miley and watching her was one of the best times I've ever had.
  • Three Days Grace, Breaking Ben, and Flyleaf were uh-mazing!! Hope they can make it back soon, and looking forward to many more awesome shows at Rupp!
  • bryancombs

  • My most memorable experience at Rupp Arena was my very first concert ever. I saw Rod Stewart during his Young Turks tour in 1982. He wore those hot pink skin tight satin pants. My boyfriend took me for my birthday present. I even caught one of the frisbees that he threw into the crowd that night. That was the one of the most exciting things I'd ever experienced up until that point in my life. I even still have the T-shirt he bought me that night. Its been more than 25 years since that night and I still remember every minute.
  • melindafloyd
    I also love the Disney on ice and childrens shows!!!!

  • My daughter is looking forward to the Taylor Swift concert! Would love to have tickets to go with her!
  • jasonsouders
    The best concert I ever saw at Rupp Arena has to be the time I went to see Aerosmith. We got there and went inside and we were all waiting to get inside the arena and a man came out and said, "Aerosmith has cancelled the night's performance and won't be rescheduling it." Then because I bought the tickets on ebay I coul...dn't get a refund and the person I bought them from told me, "tough luck, sue me." and since small claims court would have cost more than the tickets were worth I lost 300 dollars.
  • Name
    Keith Urban and Carrie Underwood has been my favorite event!!

I ♥ her and one of my dreams is always to meet her, I would cry and flip if I met her. Thank you, SO MUCH. I love Rupp Arena and your concerts are always so organized.
  • I've been to several concerts, basketball games, the circus, ice shows and I'm sure other events in Rupp. I'll never forget a UK Wildcat game...the 1st I'd been to.

  • vaneesameredith
    Memories are what is created at Rupp Arena... for me it was my first concert (Tom Petty), and now in the last 9 years my daughter has made her memories of seeing numerous circus and sesame street productions. To make a great memory of me taking her to her first music concert to see Talyor Swift would be priceless. We didnt get tix before selling out sadly. Rupp is more than basketball and music!
