Mayor Dave Bronson’s administration announced on Monday that the Sullivan Arena will officially reopen as an entertainment venue, shutting down any suspicion that the facility will be used again as a mass homeless shelter.
During a press conference at City Hall, Bronson said the municipality has come to an agreement with O’Malley Ice and Sports to operate the Sullivan Arena as a sports, entertainment, and events venue.
O’Malley Ice and Sports currently runs the Ben Boeke and Dempsey-Anderson ice arenas. After a year of operation at those facilities, revenues to the municipality have returned to 2017 and 2018 levels, Bronson said. John Stenehjem of O’Malley Sports says the arena is in good shape but some renovations will have to be done to the facility. He expects it to be up and running around the beginning of November.
