The Ice Box is a 4,300-seat multi-purpose arena in Lincoln, Nebraska. It was adapted for hockey upon the arrival in 1996 of the Lincoln Stars of the United States Hockey League.[1] The Ice Box is located on the former Nebraska State Fair grounds; the arena and fairgrounds existed simultaneously until the latter was bought and torn down by the University of Nebraska–Lincoln in 2010 to become Nebraska Innovation Campus. The Ice Box is currently leased to the Lincoln Stars until 2031, at which time the City of Lincoln has recommended it be demolished.[2]
