Bendix Theatre to become Bendix Arena, transform into esports facility

Some major changes are taking place at the Bendix Theatre.

It will have a new name, will be transformed into an e-sports facility, and will receive some upgrades.

The Century Center in South Bend has existed for more than forty years, and the chair has never been replaced.

The box containing more than 600 new chairs will be taken apart this week and installed in what is now known as Bendix Arena.

The surface of the new chair is black and the cup holder is wider.

As part of the renovation, new floors and carpets have been installed.

Bendix Arena will host the same events as before, but will also increase e-sports activities.

"You will be able to see the screens of each player during the game. You will be able to see the running results. You can also interact with the game in various formats. Therefore, it will become an intimate environment with nearly 700 seats , Allowing you to experience the first-hand e-sports game.” explained Jeff Jarnecke, executive director of the South Bend venue.

The installation of the required technology will be completed in May and June.

The Bendix Arena is expected to be launched as an e-sports facility in mid-July.
