Another Grand Opening

October 13, 2008

Mark your calendars for Saturday, October 18, 2008. The just completed Citizens Business Bank Arena in Ontario will be holding an open house. Located just north of Interstate 10 between Milliken and Haven Avenues at 4000 Ontario Center Parkway. Visitors will get a sneak peek at this new entertainment center in the Inland Empire. There will be live music, concessions and the opportunity to purchase tickets for the upcoming events.

The arena is owned by the City of Ontario and AEG, a subsidiary of the Anshultz Company will be the operator. (AEG presently operates such facilities as Staples Center in L.A. and the Home Depot Center in Carson. The cost of constructing the facility was $150 million. It is 225,000 square feet under roof and fixed seats of 9,500 with portable risers upping that number to a capacity 11,089 for concerts, 8,736 for hockey and 10,832 for basketball. The arena will be the home of the Ontario Reign Ice Hockey team. Ice hockey lovers in the Inland Empire will no longer have to travel to L.A., but will be able to attend professional ice hockey games in this spectacular new venue. Their season begins October 25, 2008.

Other events for October and November include a Lakers basketball game on October 24, a TNA Wrestling event on October 31, a poncho Sanchez concert on November 5 and a Carrie Underwood concert on November 9. To learn more and to see this amazing new arena, the free community open house needs to be on your weekend schedule. For more information go to http://www.cbbankarena.com/.
