In September, Visit Tri-Valley announced that it planned to create a state-of-the-art multi-use facility in either Dublin, Pleasanton, or Livermore. The center is intended to elevate the Tri-Valley’s regional and national profile by hosting large-scale sporting competitions, concerts, trade shows, conferences, banquets, retreats, and more. The center will have advanced lighting, sound systems, and digital infrastructure to support a wide range of events, according to Visit Tri-Valley.
The Visit Tri-Valley Board of Directors worked for a year on an in-depth study process with a district-wide task force, JLL Global Tourism, and Destination Advisory to find the best site. After study and interviewing different city leaders and stakeholders, VTV selected a location at the corner of Martinelli Way and Arnold Road, next to the Dublin/Pleasanton BART Station and adjacent to I-580.
“We are thrilled that Visit Tri-Valley has chosen Dublin as the future home of their state-of-the-art Multi-Use Event Center,” Dublin Mayor Michael McCorriston said in a statement. “This facility will not only enhance our city’s standing as a premier destination for sports, entertainment, and corporate events but also bring significant economic benefits to local businesses and communities throughout the entire Tri-Valley. We look forward to seeing this vision come to life and welcoming visitors from near and far.”
VTV said that it will pursue a Memorandum of Understanding with the City of Dublin, in collaboration with Alameda County.
“This innovative, sustainable, multi-use approach will benefit all Tri-Valley communities from residents to visitors alike,” Visit Tri-Valley said in a news release. “It grants the region the ability to easily host high-profile sports tournaments, entertainment events, and corporate meetings, along with additional retail and community gathering opportunities; all within an iconic structure sure to secure the Tri-Valley as a premier visitor destination in the Bay Area.”
