Located on the west side of Vanderbilt's campus in Nashville,
Vanderbilt Memorial Gymnasium
, or simply Memorial, has been home to the Lady Dores for over 40 years. When it comes to home-court advantage, Dores fans have cheered their team to 485 wins out of 629 games played at Memorial Gymnasium. The 14,316-seat venue was built in 1952 and has retained many historic features like its baseline bench seating. Its acoustics and enthusiastic student section have been attributed to helping Vandy's teams achieve superior home court advantage and rank among the nation's attendance leaders.

The greatest rivalries are always those closest to home. Fans can expect high stakes games and boundless energy whenever the Vanderbilt Commodores play the Tennessee Lady Vols. Conference-dominating teams like South Carolina's Gamecocks and
Mississippi State's Bulldogs
are high on the Lady Dores' rivalry list.
''The lively collegiate atmosphere surrounding Lady Dores home games offers lots for children to enjoy. Between quarters, you and your kids will be entertained by a variety of dancers, cheers and performances. T-shirt tosses, poster and towel giveaways, an annual teddy bear toss and the National Girls and Women Sports Day in January are all part of Lady Dores' family fun. During the final home game of the season, Commodores Coach Stephanie White team ups with Papa John's to make a $10,000 Make-a-Wish Foundation donation and grant a child's wish.'
'Since 1978, the Vanderbilt Commodores women's team has made it the Big Dance a total of 27 times. The Lady Dores made it to the Sweet 16 six times, and the Elite Eight four times. The 1992-93 season saw the Lady Dores achieve Final Four status.'

The SEC conference hosts its championship across a variety of campus and non-campus venues. While the conference does occasionally stage a championship from Nashville, the venue might not be Memorial Gymnasium. For instance, from 2017 through 2020, the home of the SEC championship has been the
Bon Secours Wellness Arena
in Greensville, S.C. Other sites have included Little Rock, Ark.; Memphis, Tenn.; and Jacksonville, Fla. In 2022, the conference will return to Nashville.
