BB&T Pavilion
Just across the Delaware River, a stone’s throw from Philadelphia sits the BB&T Pavilion - one of the greatest reasons to visit Camden, New Jersey.

That means it’s rock-and-roll all year ’round at the BB&T Pavilion!
History of the BB&T Pavilion
Opening in June of 1995, the BB&T Pavilion, is one of the jewels of the Camden Waterfront entertainment district, but when it opened it was known as the Blockbuster-Sony Music Entertainment Centre. Yes, that Blockbuster. Feeling old yet? Don’t worry, the venue would go through another few name changes before settling on its current name in 2016.
