XCEL ENERGY CENTER

A multi-sport venue that opened in 2000 and can seat up to 18,000 people. During the field hockey season, be sure to catch a game of the Minnesota Wild, who call the Xcel Energy Center (nicknamed the "X") home, along with the Minnesota Swarm, La Crosse's team. The venue also hosts conventions and concerts, with Madonna and Shania Twain among the artists who have performed there. The stadium is conveniently located and within walking distance of downtown and the Light Rail stop.
