The Mosaic Quarter Iceplex and Mosaic Quarter Field House, centerpieces of a 100-acre sports and entertainment development, are breaking ground at 9:00 a.m. on November 20, 2024, in Tucson, AZ. Designed by JLG Architects, the nearly 175,000-square-foot MQ Iceplex will be home ice to the University of Arizona’s Wildcat Hockey, offering three NHL regulation-sized ice rinks and venue space supporting e-sports and concerts, community and youth programs, NCAA teams, adaptive sports, and semi-professional ice sports. The 131,000-square-foot MQ Field House will host basketball and volleyball programs with eight courts and additional training facilities. The grand opening of both facilities, at the southeast corner of Interstate 10 and the Kino Parkway intersection, is anticipated for spring/summer of 2027.

JLG Architects was selected by Mosaic Quarter Development to design the new athletic campus for the community of Pima County and Tucson, Arizona. The athletic district will be centered around a natural river wash that flows through the Mosaic Quarter development, connected by pedestrian bridges to achieve a unified campus-like setting. The MQ Iceplex and MQ Field House are central to the mixed-use sport and entertainment district, supported by the addition of three new hotels, up to 10 restaurants, retail, convention space, community pavilions, and parks.
