'at' in the sentence "You must be in or AT the arena" means you are likely located where the arena is, but you probably are not inside. If you say "in the arena" you are inside of the arena and not just generally near or in the vacinity of the arena.
If you say to me that you are AT the arena, I will automatically think that you are there, but NOT (necessarilly) inside yet, whereas if you say you are IN the arena, you are already inside.
