Today we have a first look at the new 8000 seater Multi-Sport cheer and dance venue currently under construction at the ESPN Wide World of Sports complex.

Currently under construction and expected to open later this year, the new venue will feature a flexible design that can host a multitude of different events. Although primarily designed to host cheerleading and dance competitions, the building can be reconfigured for other sports, such as basketball, volleyball and concerts.

In addition to the new 286,000 sq. ft. venue, the project will also include new parking lots and entrances to the complex.

ESPN Wide World of Sports is aiming to become the leading location for cheerleader and dance events in the country, and already hosts nine major events in the year, including six elite Varsity events, including the USASF Cheerleading and Dance Worlds.
