Liberty Arena is a proposed 4,000-seat arena in Lynchburg, Virginia to be built on the campus of Liberty University. Construction is expected to begin in the fall of 2018, with the arena's opening scheduled for 2020. Once built, the arena will be home to the Liberty Flames and Lady Flames men's and women's basketball teams, the Lady Flames women's volleyball team, and other events for which attendance is not expected to exceed 4,000.

Liberty Arena will be built adjacent to the Flames and Lady Flames' current home, the Vines Center; "The Furnace" will continue to host Flames and Lady Flames games and events where attendance is expected to exceed 4,000.[1][2]
