The King Center is excited to announce the latest phase of renovation projects now underway. This phase includes a transformative upgrade to the facilities, including renovating the food prep space into a state-of-the-art full-service kitchen. With this enhancement, the King Center will now offer in-house catering services for all events, including weddings, parties, and corporate events. This ensures a seamless one-stop-shop experience with professional event staff delivering exceptional culinary and event management services.  

Additionally, the Rotunda space is being updated to serve as an expanded area for venue and community events, such as business meetings, daytime gatherings, and more. King Center guests can also look forward to the introduction of another, new, VIP lounge area, designed to offer additional preshow experiences. This stylish addition will offer a luxurious space to enjoy food and drinks with friends as a VIP before the main event. Details on obtaining passes to the VIP area will be released closer to the completion of the space. The King Center will also be hosting behind-the-scenes previews prior to the grand opening of the newly refreshed spaces.

These renovations are a strategic investment aimed at enhancing King Center offerings and generating additional revenue, which can be reinvested into future updates of the 36-year-old venue to meet the evolving needs of our community and guests.

“We are incredibly excited about the next phase of our renovations at the King Center. These improvements, particularly the kitchen space, are essential steps in our ongoing commitment to providing an exceptional experience for all of our guests.” said Bob Papke, General Manager of the King Center and ASM Global Vice President. “Enhancing the functionality and aesthetics of the facility creates a more enjoyable and seamless experience for everyone who visits or hosts an event with us. We appreciate the continued support and patience of our patrons as we work towards these exciting updates, and more in the future”.
