Five Flags Center<br />

Located <strong>in</strong> downtown Dubuque, the Five Flags Center<br />

consists of newly renovated Five Flags Theater (711<br />

seats), Five Flags Arena, Basement Bijou <strong>and</strong> other<br />

meet<strong>in</strong>g space. The facility’s “ballroom” is<br />

configured at the east end of the arena floor with a<br />

moveable wall for added flexibility. When opened<br />

<strong>and</strong> the ice sheet is removed, floor space totals 25,000<br />

SF.<br />

While host<strong>in</strong>g various m<strong>in</strong>or league hockey teams<br />

over the years, the Arena is presently home to the<br />

Dubuque Thunderbirds of the Central States Hockey<br />

League (junior hockey). The recent completion of the<br />

Gr<strong>and</strong> River Center (offer<strong>in</strong>g 86,000 SF of convention<br />

space) has moderated recent convention, conference<br />

<strong>and</strong> tradeshow usage of Five Flags. However, the<br />

facility typically hosts nearly 300 local <strong>and</strong> non-local<br />

events each year.<br />
