McCormick Place Events Center is a indoor sports venue currently under construction in Chicago, Illinois, It will be home court for the men's and women's basketball teams of DePaul University as well as serve as an events center for McCormick Place. The arena was announced in May 2013, with construction planned to begin in 2014, and use expected to begin with the 2016–17 season. When construction began in November 2015 it was expected to be completed for the 2017–18 season. Although DePaul had been seeking a new home arena — it has used Allstate Arena in suburban Rosemont since 1980 — it rejected a November 2012 ten-year offer to play rent free at the United Center. Instead, DePaul will use Allstate Arena on a recurring one-year basis until it has a new home.
