Prudential Center

In October of 2007, PrudentialCenter ushered in a new era in sports and entertainment in Newark and the entire Northern New Jersey area. Newark is currently undergoing a major revitalization, converting the city core into a vibrant and energized entertainment district. The Prudential Center, the New Jersey Performing Arts Center, The Newark Symphony, Riverfront Stadium and in 2009, Red Bull Park in Harrison, represent just part of the nearly $2 billion in construction underway.

Prudential Center is the cornerstone in the revitalization and renaissance of downtown Newark. In addition to the arena, Newark will soon add scores of condominiums, restaurants, themed bars, and mixed retail establishments. PrudentialCenter will be recognized among the finest arenas in the country and isNew Jersey’s home for hockey, college basketball, indoor soccer, concerts, family shows and special events. A public / private partnership between the City of Newark and Devils Arena Entertainment, made the $375 million PrudentialCenter a reality that is changing the face of downtown Newark and making it a destination place for sports and live entertainment in the region.
