South Dakota State Athletics will host an open house Sept. 27 to celebrate the First Bank & Trust Arena renovation project.
Â
The event begins at 5 p.m. and will consist of self-guided tours of the entire facility, with student-athletes on hand to visit with guests. The Friday evening celebration concludes with a short program in the arena at 6:30 p.m.
Â
Fans attending the event must enter at the new southeast entrance; parking will be available in the lots across the street to the east the of the facility.
Â
The First Bank & Trust Arena project includes new premium seating areas and suites, state-of-the-art video board and display systems, a new sound system, a more spacious concourse, and improved restrooms to enhance the fan and event experience in a facility that first opened as Frost Arena in 1973. New and improved locker rooms and coaching offices are also a part of the renovated arena, which will maintain a seating capacity of about 5,000.Â
