Today we checked out the almost-completed Cedar Park Center, the new $55 million facility in Cedar Park. The opening of the center will be marked on September 25 with a concert by George Strait and Lee Ann Womack.
The arena expects to host over 120 events during its first year. The facility will be the home of the Texas Stars in their first year with the American Hockey League.
Where: The arena is located at 183A and New Hope Road in Cedar Park, 20 minutes northwest of downtown Austin.
For More Information:
What an example of poor architectural thought and design inside. The front edge of my seat cushion was five inches from the seatback in front. No adult male could sit on any of the rows around me with their knees in front of them and rows had to empty to let people pass. Very narrow, with short arm rests ending in raised steel cupholders about where your forearms rest. Only those under the age of ten can sit comfortably. What a disaster. Did they hire the most inexpensive, inexperienced architects they could find? Inexcusable lack of knowledge on average knee space required for normal adults.
I agree with the above. Some seats near the ice have normal leg room but they don't tell you where they are? Parking is ridiculously expensive $10.
