Nassau Coliseum
The Nassau Coliseum is a multi-purpose indoor arena in Uniondale, New York, on Long Island, that has hosted various sporting events, concerts, and exhibitions since its opening in 1972. It was originally used for hockey games by the New York Islanders of the National Hockey League, but after the team moved to Brooklyn in 2015, the Coliseum underwent renovations and was used by the team again from 2018 to 2020. The venue also hosted the New York Nets of the American Basketball Association and National Basketball Association from 1972 to 1977, and has been the home of the Long Island Nets of the NBA G League since 2017. The Coliseum's seating capacity has varied over the years, reaching a maximum of 18,511 for concerts and 16,170 for hockey before the renovations, which reduced its capacity to 13,917 for hockey and 14,500 for basketball. The arena has also hosted notable events such as the 35th National Hockey League All-Star Game in 1983, during which Wayne Gretzky scored four goals.learn more on wikipedia
