Ice Arena

Completed in 2008, our Ice Arena houses a permanent ice floor for events such as skating and professional hockey, and can also be adapted with temporary flooring to accommodate trade shows, conventions, and concerts. The Ice Arena provides 28,000 square feet of convention space, 5,127 seats for professional hockey, and 7,450 seats for a concert. This new arena makes possible the occurrence of two simultaneous events in one building, making the Rushmore Plaza Civic Center the largest events center in South Dakota.
