The Brandt Centre’s days could be numbered.
The city’s executive committee discussed the future of the 43-year-old multi-use event centre Wednesday, debating whether to renovate the current building or just build a new one.
Regina Exhibition Association Limited (REAL) started taking a closer look at the future of the Brandt Centre in 2019, before developing an Arena Planning Strategy Committee (APSC) in 2020, comprised of community leaders and stakeholders.
The APSC presented to council three options the building could be left as is, $40 million could be used to upgrade it, or a new arena could be built.
“The reality of it is, (the Brandt Centre) is 43 years old and like anything that’s 43 years old, it was built for 30 to 50 years,” REAL CEO Tim Reid said.
