arena show

Large venue performance

An arena show is a live performance—typically a concert—held in a large indoor venue designed for sports events, seating anywhere from 10,000 to 25,000 people.

The term distinguishes mid-to-large scale tours from smaller theater shows or massive stadium performances: They're doing arena shows across North America this fall.
