Music lovers in Manchester, New Hampshire already know that the Verizon Wireless Arena has a schedule full of some of the most popular musicians in the world. Formerly known as the Civic Arena, Verizon Wireless Arena is located in the heart of downtown Manchester, and is surrounded by an abundance of restaurants and bars. With an audience capacity of just under 10,000, the arena is the premier concert venue in New Hampshire.

During NBA and NHL preseasons, it's also the home to the Boston Celtics and the Boston Bruins, as well as the FIRST Robotics Competition. When Verizon Wireless Arena's schedule isn't full of events like these, it's hosting a slew of performers including Phish, Josh Groban, and many others. Because the diverse arena hosts both ice hockey and basketball, musicians can create elaborate stages with the versatile floor. And because Verizon Wireless Arena is indoors, audiences need not worry about shows being cancelled, even in the worst Manchester weather.

Anytime is a good time to catch a concert on Verizon Wireless Arena's packed calendar. For a full list of shows at Manchester's largest music and event venue, just check the schedule on Eventful.
