History

A replacement of the Sioux Falls Arena had been discussed since 1999, with numerous task forces formed and studies completed to determine the need for a new events center.[4] The Sioux Falls Arena was built in 1961 when the population of Sioux Falls was 65,000.[5] By 2000, the population had nearly doubled to 124,000[5] while updates to the Arena were few and far between. After years of arguments and meetings, the new events center was put to a public vote in a special election on November 8, 2011. By a vote of 23,284 to 16,807, Sioux Falls citizens passed the events center special ballot, allowing design and construction of a new events center to begin.[6] Breaking ground in 2014, it was built on the west side of the Sioux Falls Convention Center.[7]
