The amazing State Farm Center is an entertainment venue which opened back in 1963, but still manages to attract huge audiences today. When it opened, the venue was pretty unique, boasting an enormous domed roof which is only supported on two edges. Its amazing architectural design has endured and it still pulls in crowds of up to 16,000 spectators. The venue hosts men’s and women’s basketball tournaments, huge big-name musical concerts, Broadway extravaganzas and many other forms of entertainment. You can see what’s on and book your tickets on their website.
