The Credit Union of Texas Event Center (formerly Allen Event Center) is an American 6,275 fixed-seat multi-purpose indoor arena located in Allen, Texas, a northern suburb of Dallas. The arena opened in 2009 under the name Allen Event Center. Construction cost was $52.6 million ($63.5 million in 2020 dollars). The City of Allen sold the naming rights to the arena to the Credit Union of Texas in 2021 for a seven-year term at $325,000 per year.[6]

The center hosts the home games of the ECHL's Allen Americans and the relaunched Dallas Sidekicks of the Major Arena Soccer League. The Miss Texas pageant relocated to the center for 2012 and 2013.[7] It was formerly the home of Champions Indoor Football's Texas Revolution (also previously called the Allen Wranglers) until the team moved to Frisco, Texas, in 2017.

In 2019, the event center hosted the NCWA National Wrestling Championship.[8]

On April 27 and 29, 2019, the Dallas Fuel hosted the Overwatch League's first Homestand Weekend at the Allen Event Center.[9] These matches were the first in league history to be played away from the Blizzard Arena in Burbank, California. The Event Center would later host the 2024 Call of Duty League Championship and hosted the 2025 LTA Championship the end-cap to the inaugural and maiden League of Legends Championship of The Americas (LTA) season.[10]
