Mountain America Center

The newest high-volume venue in East Idaho, the Mountain America Center, can serve any kind of event out there–monster truck rally, product convention, Christmas performance, ice hockey. And though the venue may not be the largest in the state, it’s been designed with every kind of visitor in mind. 

With a number of ADA accessible seating options, trip planners can refer to seating maps for ADA specific areas inside the venue. MAC’s Hero Arena has 3 ADA accessible elevators that are available for public use as well as Assisted Listening Devices (ALD) that may be checked out free of charge, at the Guest Services Desk located within the Bingham Healthcare Box Office on the main concourse level.

Since the Mountain America Center opened in Idaho Falls last year, the large capacity space comes with versatility for production needs but  also provides an ideal location to entice visitors making a business trip to add onto their team experience or build  out a personal travel plan exploring the Greater Yellowstone Region which includes Jackson Hole, Yellowstone National Park, Grand Teton National Park and the surrounding mountain communities that are built around opal mines, agriculture,  research, recreation and small town charm. 

Catering to events, tournaments and concerts, MAC’s Hero Arena is equipped with a National Hockey League-quality ice floor and two 12-ft. by 22-ft. 5.9 mm video boards for the new  Idaho Falls junior hockey team.

If your group or business is in need of an even larger venue, the on-campus BYU-Idaho Center in Rexburg, is one of the largest venues in Idaho, seating 15,000. However the venue is not available for events that do not meet the educational and devotional standards of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Also a part of the Mountain Adventure Center is the Blue Cross of Idaho Conference Center. Ideal for corporate events, conferences and banquets, the spacious and flexible space is also well-equipped with a kitchen enabling the flexibility and infrastructure for a wide variety of events to be scheduled including luncheons and banquets. For large events the kitchen will also serve the mezzanine level in Hero Arena

The center, a project more than ten years in the making, is being built in Snake River Landing at the corner of Pioneer Road and Event Center Drive.he 48,000 square foot venue features Hero Arena with available seating up to 6,000 people and the Blue Cross of Idaho Conference Center which boasts a number of flexible seating configurations. The venue is also an ideal solution for high traffic  transportation and can handle charter bus traffic as well as provides plenty of parking for individual travelers.
