IMPORTANT! INFORMATION FOR THE EVENTS CENTER ARENA AND PADDOCK

The Events Center’s lower level has carpet laid over compacted dirt. Pallet jacks are prohibited due to this, and all dollies and hand trucks must have pneumatic tires to prevent creating ruts that could become tripping hazards. Repairs are impossible during shows as the carpets can’t be pulled up until afterward.

Due to limited access points at the lower Arena level of the Events Center, we kindly request unloading one day earlier than usual to alleviate congestion. Please move your vehicle promptly after unloading. Thank you for your cooperation.
