The Sears Centre is an 11,000-seat multi-purpose arena in Hoffman Estates, Illinois, a northwest suburb, 25 miles from Chicago. The arena has 43 luxury suites on two separate levels. The venue opened on October 26, 2006, with performances by Duran Duran and Bob Dylan; it was estimated to attract over 750,000 visitors annually.〔 The arena is currently home to the Chicago Mustangs of the Major Arena Soccer League. The Sears Centre is located near the former site of the Poplar Creek Music Theater, a venue that was also located in Hoffman Estates from 1980 to 1994. Food services are provided by Levy Restaurants. In 2011, the Village of Hoffman Estates took over ownership of the arena after Ryan Companies US, Inc. walked away from the arena due to the arena's lack of success. However, since the village took over the arena and hired Global Spectrum to manage it, the arena has shown improvements. ==Notable events== *The fourth annual TNA Bound for Glory Professional wrestling pay-per-view event – October 12, 2008, which was TNA's first ever PPV event in the Chicago area. *The arena was also the venue which featured TNA's first ever ''Impact Wrestling'' outside of Orlando, Florida, on March 14, 2013. *On May 19 and 20, 2011, it played host to the Chicago audition stages in the first season of the Fox singer search program The X Factor. *In 2009 and 2011, it played host to Strikeforce events. *September 12–14, 2014, it played host to the Davis Cup, hosting matches between the United States and Slovakia. *2014 Skate America 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sears Centre」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
