Event planners looking for a premier destination in the Mid-Atlantic now have another venue to consider. Opening in Fall 2026, the Pulaski County Sportsplex will introduce a state-of-the-art, 165,000-square-foot indoor sports and event facility in Pulaski County, Virginia, designed to host regional, national and community events year-round.

Located in the heart of the New River Valley, the Pulaski County Sportsplex combines modern amenities, flexible event space and a welcoming destination experience to provide tournament operators and event organizers with a new option for competitions, exhibitions, conferences and special events.

The Sportsplex was developed with a vision to create a facility that attracts visitors from across the country while serving the local community. The venue will provide a versatile environment capable of accommodating a wide range of sports, including basketball, volleyball, futsal, wrestling, gymnastics, cheer, dance, pickleball and other indoor competitions, while also supporting non-sporting events such as trade shows, expos, meetings and community gatherings.

For tournament organizers, the facility offers the opportunity to bring multiple teams, participants and spectators together in one centralized location. The expansive indoor footprint provides the flexibility needed to create efficient tournament layouts, maximize court space and deliver a high-quality experience for athletes, coaches and families.

But it is more than just floorspace for events. It was designed with every member of the family in mind. The Sportsplex features a full-service restaurant and catering, indoor walking track, weight room, cardio room, golf institute, locker rooms and the largest indoor playground in Virginia.

Together, these venues provide event organizers with a unique opportunity to host multiple event types throughout the year while benefiting from a community focused on creating memorable visitor experiences.
