The venue will be a privately financed, state-of-the-art arena one block east of the Las Vegas Strip on a ten acre plot owned by Harrah’s.
As managing partner, AEG will be responsible for developing, operating and programming a full range of live sports and entertainment events including concerts, boxing matches, special events and awards presentations, as well as sporting events, tournaments and exhibitions.
The arena will be constructed and configured in a manner that will make it capable of housing an NBA or NHL franchise.
It is hoped the venue will be open for business by 2010.
