“As we celebrate this five-year anniversary milestone, our team could not be happier with the success of this prestigious venue,” said Sean Saadeh, Executive Vice President of Entertainment for Harris Blitzer Sports and Entertainment. “We look forward to maintaining this level of success with increased event bookings, private celebrations, and a continued diversification of programming.”
“The Jersey City landmark remains a hub of entertainment for all of New Jersey’s fans and patrons and that has been truly inspiring,” Saadeh added. “We cannot wait to bring additional entertainment to the Jersey City community, while we continue to make it a destination for artists, performers, partners, and guests for years to come.”
