A new arena is in the cards for Las Vegas, Bloomberg<\/em> reports. Developers Oak View Group have acquired a plot of land just south of the Las Vegas Strip, minutes from Harry Reid International Airport, for the project.<\/p>\n

Oak View CEO Tim Leiweke, seen above, says his company will fill the arena with \u201cevery big event that exists.\u201d (Image: The Business Journals<\/em>)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The 20,000-seat arena promises to be the centerpiece of a $3 billion\u00a0high-end \u201centertainment campus,\u201d including a casino and a 2,000-room hotel.<\/p>\n

Los Angeles-based Oak View Group is a development and investment company specializing in the entertainment industry. It has already built arenas in Seattle, New York, and Austin. But this will be its biggest project yet.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The $1 billion earmarked for the stadium alone will dwarf that of the T-Mobile Arena<\/a>, which cost $375 million, Bloomberg<\/em> notes.<\/p>\n

Future Las Vegas NBA Venue?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Oak View CEO Tim Leiweke also had a hand in that project. He is the former CEO and president of the Anschutz Group, which owns the L.A. Lakers, the L.A. Kings, and the L.A. Galaxy. The T-Mobile Arena was a joint venture between Anschutz and MGM Resorts. It\u2019s now the home of the NHL Vegas Golden Knights.<\/p>\n

Leiweke hopes that the venue might one day be the base of a future NBA team<\/a>, although he concedes that there\u2019s no guarantee the league will opt to expand in Las Vegas.<\/p>\n

\n

The city has transformed itself into a major sports and entertainment destination in recent years, and would seem like a natural fit for the NBA. But earlier this month, a league spokesperson denied it was eyeing Las Vegas as an expansion franchise, saying, \u201cThere\u2019s no truth to it.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Meanwhile, the cofounder of Oak View, Irving Azoff, hopes to use his credentials as a music executive to attract the world\u2019s biggest performing artists. Also involved in the project is Marc Badain, the former president of the Las Vegas Raiders.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re going to go after every big event that exists,\u201d Leiweke told Bloomberg.<\/em> \u201cIt\u2019s exclusive, it\u2019s high-end, and it will be built in a way where it\u2019s the perfect experience for those willing to spend the money to have the greatest experience in live entertainment.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u2018Luxury Experiences\u2019 <\/strong><\/h2>\n

The complex will cater to people looking for \u201cluxury experiences.\u201d Customers will be able to buy package deals that include hotel accommodation and live events. They will also receive access to a private club at the arena.<\/p>\n

While Leiweke declined to talk about specific business partners for the project, a Bloomberg<\/em> source has said Oak View Group will need to partner with a casino and hotel operator, and has held discussions with several potential candidates.<\/strong><\/p>\n

According to the source, Oak View is in preliminary talks with concert promotion giant Live Nation Entertainment Inc.<\/p>\n
