Qwest Arena hosted the 2006 Continental Basketball Association All-Star Game (while the Idaho Stampede were still part of the CBA) and the 2007 ECHL All-Star Game. The arena features 39 corporate suites, 1,100 Club Premiere seats, standing room space for 200 people, The Zone restaurant overlooking the arena, as well as a Blimpie franchise among the 9 concession stands. The arena is physically connected to the Grove Hotel at the corner of Front Street & Capitol Boulevard in Boise. The main entrance to the arena is from the Grove Plaza. There are two scoreboards and a Daktronics ProStar videoboard. The facility was renamed Century Link Arena on August 18, 2011 due to that company's take over of the previous naming rights holder. Other events hosted in the facility include concerts, trade shows, conventions, ice shows and various other sporting events. The Grove Hotel has 36,000 sq. ft. of meeting and convention space in addition to the 22,247 sq. ft. of arena floor space at the Qwest Arena. A monster truck event usually comes to the arena every year. Qwest Arena hosted the NBA D-League Showcase which was held on January 14-17, 2008 which had all the NBA D-League teams play for 4 days, and showed their talent in front of National tv (NBA TV) and had scouts all around the country.
