The Bi-State Classic is held at the La Crosse Center, a multi-purpose convention center located in the heart of downtown La Crosse, nestled on the banks of the Mississippi River. Originally built in 1980, the convention hall and arena have undergone two major renovations since, nearly doubling in size.
The Bi-State competition is held in the arena with 21,000 sq. ft. of open floor space and seating up to 8,000 people, depending on the type of event being held.
