A local arena is getting national recognition as one of the tops in the country for ticket sales!

Moline’s TaxSlayer Center has been named one of the top arenas in the U.S. in ticket sales for the year, according to a news release from the venue.

The TaxSlayer ranks fifth in the nation in sales for arenas under 12,000 seats for 2021, according to Pollstar Magazine’s year-end analysis report. The Quad Cities arena sold 40,771 tickets that grossed about $2.3 million after reopening in July. The year was hit hard by the COVID-19 pandemic.

“Thank you to all our partners in the live entertainment industry for working with us to provide entertainment for the Quad City community as we emerged from a 16-month shutdown this past summer,” TaxSlayer Center Executive Director Scott Mullen said in a news release issued Tuesday.
