On December 6, 2011, it was announced that Pinnacle Bank purchased the naming rights to the arena, at a cost of $11.25 million for 25 years. The fifth concert was American singer, Pink on November 9, 2013, which sold out. Michael Bublé, Jason Aldean, The Eagles, Elton John, Jay-Z, Trans-Siberian Orchestra, and Miranda Lambert also performed at the new arena in the fall of 2013. On the night before Pink's concert, the Nebraska men's and women's basketball teams played their first game in the arena. The women played Top 25 team UCLA on November 8, 2013, and the men played 2013 Cinderella FGCU that same night. The arena held its first event on August 16, 2013 as it hosted the University of Nebraska's summer commencement ceremony.
Additionally, the arena is the main venue, of four total, for the Nebraska state high school boys and girls basketball tournaments.
