Broadmoor Hotel Buys Naming Rights To Colorado Springs Arena

The Colorado Springs World Arena has signed a 10-year naming-rights deal with the 5-star Broadmoor hotel. The venue’s official name is now the Broadmoor World Arena in Colorado Springs. Financial terms were not disclosed. The old Broadmoor World Arena opened in '38 as part of the hotel and served as home ice to many Olympic skaters. In addition, the arena, run by a non-profit group, has signed a multiyear deal with AEG Facilities to book events and sell sponsorships at the facility. AEG helped sell the naming rights.

The 8,099-capacity arena is home to Colorado College men’s hockey. AEG has booked the Kings-Avalanche Oct. 2 preseason game at the arena. The deals were to be announced this afternoon in Colorado Springs.
