Idaho State Plans $70M Community Arena

Idaho State University says Idaho Central Credit Union has committed a multi-year gift toward the ICCU Bengal Arena, a planned basketball and community-events facility on the north side of the ICCU Dome in Pocatello. The project is expected to cost $70 million to $80 million and be funded entirely through private philanthropy, including ICCU’s contribution and other donations raised through the ISU Foundation. Planned for about 4,500 spectators, the arena would host Idaho State athletics as well as concerts, commencements, tournaments, trade shows and other regional events.
