Alltel Arena - a photo on Flickriver

Alltel Arena

            The arena was funded through a combination of local, state and private monies. On the local level, proceeds from a one-year, one-cent sales tax in Pulaski County were dedicated to building the arena. The state contributed $20 million and the sale of suite lease agreements for skyboxes and other private funding netted additional funds. The Alltel Corporation contributed $7 million for the naming rights of the arena. When it opened in October of 1999 with a cost of $83 million, the arena was debt free.

The arena is owned by the Multi-Purpose Civic Center Facilities Board for Pulaski County, with Michael Marion as General Manager of the facility. Marion, with 25 years experience in the entertainment industry, has been highly successful in booking some of the most illustrious names in music, including Elton John, Billy Joel, Britney Spears, Janet Jackson, Cher, The Eagles, Tim McGraw, George Strait, Bruce Springsteen and many more.

In addition to providing a venue for sports and concerts, the arena provides space for meetings, banquets, conventions and exhibitions. Seating capacity ranges from 75 to 2,300. An 80-by-40-foot stage, eight spotlights, a public address system, audio/video equipment and in-house sound system are provided. The arena offers full in-house catering with a complete catering staff and experienced chef.
