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 />
