T. H. Barton Coliseum is a 7,150-seat multi-purpose arena located within the Arkansas State Fairgrounds in Little Rock, Arkansas. It is the former home of the University of Arkansas at Little Rock Trojans basketball team and the defunct Arkansas GlacierCats ice hockey team of the also-defunct WPHL.

The Trojans moved into Alltel Arena when it opened in 1999 and remained there until the team moved into the on-campus Jack Stephens Center in 2005. Prior to the Trojans' move to the Sun Belt Conference, the venue hosted five Atlantic Sun Conference men's basketball tournaments in 1983, 1986, 1987, 1989, and 1990. It has since hosted three Sun Belt Conference men’s basketball tournaments.

During the annual Arkansas State Fair, the coliseum is the venue for the fair's rodeo events. Additionally, it is used as the location throughout the year for spectator events featuring monster trucks, motorcycle acrobatics, and more.
