JQH Arena opens for tours this weekend

Posted online
The public can get a glimpse of Missouri State University’s new JQH Arena, under construction now, at an open house Saturday.

Tours of the arena will be every 15 minutes 9 a.m.–3 p.m. Each tour is limited to 40 people and given on a first-come, first-served basis, according to an MSU news release. Sign-up begins at 8:30 a.m.

Open-toe shoes will not be allowed, and required hard hats will be provided.

“This is a chance for season-ticket holders and fans to get a glimpse of vantage points around the arena and view construction,” MSU Vice President for University Advancement Brent Dunn said in the release. “The tour will offer fans the opportunity to view seating options in the new arena.”

The $67 million facility, with more than 11,000 seats, is expected to be complete in time for the 2008-09 basketball season.
