Opening Fall 2025
At approximately 140,000 square feet, the Woodman's Center will attract sports teams, regional and national companies, and organizations for meetings, conferences, and trade shows. A year-round permanent ice arena will house hockey, figure skating, and other on-ice sports and community activities. The Center will also include a 25,800 square-foot conference space convertible to hard court for youth sports, and a multi-use arena that will be ice for a portion of the year and converted to dry space for basketball, volleyball, pickleball, and other sports, or additional conference space.
Located just five minutes from interstate 39/90, this unique venue is connected to a shopping mall, Uptown Janesville, with plans to add a family activity center, restaurants, outdoor areas, and a hotel. Additional restaurants and retail are within walking distance, and ten hotels range from one to five miles away.
