Few college venues match the character of Williams Arena, the beloved “Barn” at 1925 University Ave. SE in Minneapolis. Home to Minnesota Golden Gophers men’s and women’s basketball since 1928, this historic arena seats roughly 14,625 and is famous for its raised hardwood court, intimate bowl, and timber roof trusses that amplify every run. Big Ten showdowns, high school tournaments, ceremonies, and occasional special events all feel bigger under those rafters.
