Mullet Arena hosts FREE event in support of new Arizona Coyotes arena
Staff Reports | Digital Free Press
From 9:30 to 10: 30 a.m. Saturday, March 4, Tempe residents will gain free admission to Mullett Arena for an open skate event as the Tempe Wins campaign gears up for the critical public vote on May 16.
That public vote, Tempe Wins representatives report, as an ask for voters to transform an old landfill into the first privately funded entertainment sports district in Arizona — at no cost to Tempe, proponents of the effort contend.
Propositions 301, 302 and 303 would authorize Tempe to transform an old landfill near the Town Lake into a privately funded entertainment district that includes new housing, retail and restaurants, and a new home for the Arizona Coyotes. Proponents of the project contend the district will create 6,900 permanent jobs in Tempe, more than $200 million in tax revenues for critical city services and more than $2.1 billion new spending.
This event is open to all ages and skill levels. Guests can bring their own skates or rent them at the arena. Attendees will be treated to special guest appearances and Arizona Coyotes swag.
RSVP is encouraged prior to the event at info@tempewins.com. If you have any questions, please contact us at info@tempewins.com.
Mullet Arena is found on the main campus of Arizona State University in Tempe at 411 S. Packard Drive. The parking lot and the arena are on the east side of Packard Drive between East 6th Street and Rio Salado Parkway.
