The center was built in 2000. On January 4, 2012, Memphis-based Landers Auto Group purchased the naming rights. The name was changed to the Landers Center. Several now-defunct teams have called the arena home. These teams include the
Memphis Xplorers of the
AF2, the
Mississippi RiverKings (previously called the Memphis RiverKings) of the
Central Hockey League and
Southern Professional Hockey League, and the
Memphis Americans of the
National Indoor Soccer League. Currently, it is home to the
Memphis Hustle of the
NBA G League. The center houses a 17,000 square foot
convention center and 400 seat
performing arts center. It is used as a concert venue,
boxing arena, and for ice shows and circuses. Since 2009, the
Mid-South Fair has been held at the Landers Center. Formerly, the fair was held in midtown Memphis at the Fairgrounds. During the
2021–22 NBA G League season, the Landers Center served as one of the temporary home arenas for the
Capitanes de la Ciudad de México during their inaugural season at the
NBA G League despite also being temporarily stationed at
Fort Worth, Texas at the time due to the long-term effects of the
COVID-19 pandemic. In March 2026, an expansion team in the
Federal Prospects Hockey League was announced to begin play at the Landers Center for the 2026–2027 season. ==References==
