Bridgestone Arena’s capacity changes depending on what event is set up inside. For hockey games like Nashville Predators matches, it seats around 17,159 fans, which gives a pumped-up feel on game nights. For basketball it bumps up to about 19,395 seats, and concerts can range from around 10,000 up to about 20,000 depending on the stage layout. Some shows add floor seating or use different stage positions, and that’s why the numbers vary. For theatre-style events or smaller shows, the capacity is a bit lower but still feels full. No matter the event type, there’s usually a big crowd and lots of energy throughout the building. This flexible seating setup makes the arena one of the most popular large venues in the region.
