CenturyLink Center

Since opening in 2003, CenturyLink Center Omaha has elevated the city as a leading Midwest convention destination. Our convention center features 194,000 square feet of contiguous exhibition space, more than 63,000 square feet of flexible meeting space and an additional 42,500 square feet of pre-function space. A glass-enclosed skywalk links the convention center to the Four Diamond Hilton Omaha, creating a convenient enhancement to our convention facilities. More than 2,000 hotel rooms, representing a variety of national chains, are available within a 3-mile radius. We are proud to be a non-union facility, allowing freedom and flexibility for your event.

The CenturyLink Center Omaha Arena is big! A six-story building can fit inside the space.
This much space can hold a lot of people-18,300 people to be exact.
The Arena offers 32 Luxury Suites and more than 1,000 Club Seats.
There is plenty of space backstage, too. The Arena has 7 locker rooms, 5 dressing rooms, a media interview room and broadcast facilities.
We love our home teams! The Arena is home to Creighton Bluejays men's basketball and UNO Maverick men's hockey.
We are totally flexible. The Arena has hosted concerts, family shows, swimming, tennis, basketball, hockey, rodeos, motocross, circuses, volleyball on a hard court and a sand court and much, much more.
Two events in one day? No problem! Our floor can change over from basketball to hockey in one hour and twenty minutes.
Our floor crew is totally professional. They move 4,896 objects in that time to make the change.
Putting down the ice floor takes 10,000 gallons of water. The ice is approximately an inch thick.
More than ten miles of tubing underneath the concrete floor circulate the coolant necessary to keep the ice floor cold.
Major sporting events in the CenturyLink Center Omaha Arena include the 2010 NCAA Division I Wrestling Championships, the 2008 NCAA Division I Women's Volleyball Championship, the 2008 and 2012 NCAA Division I Men's Basketball 1st and 2nd Rounds, and the 2008 and 2012 U.S. Olympic Team Trials for Swimming.
