Step right up and witness the ultimate entertainment destination! A colossal 282,000 SF project featuring a 4,100 seated-fan arena, a conference center that can accommodate up to 15,000 people, and a stunning hotel.
The arena is the ultimate VIP experience with luxurious suites, locker rooms, athletic offices, press room, weight/athletic training rooms, ticket office, and practice gyms. The wood paneling on the ceiling will make you feel like you’re in Madison Square Garden, and the second largest scoreboard in North Carolina will keep you on the edge of your seat.
The conference center is all about versatility with the power to subdivide into ten breakout rooms. This AV powerhouse boasts 54 speakers and a massive 43 ft. screen (as tall as a two-story house!). It’s the perfect space for students and community organizations to host all sorts of events.
In the hospitality management program, students will get hands-on experience running a boutique hotel. The Jana & Ken Kahn hotel is one immense learning lab that will give students the experience necessary to succeed in their careers. With 30 beautiful rooms, and the fine dining restaurant Alo connected, students can build confidence in a professional setting. It’s the ultimate destination for entertainment, education, and hospitality all in one!
