Each year, the multi-purpose Pennsylvania Farm Show Complex & Expo Center hosts a variety of exciting sports events, highlighted by the USJN Hershey Showcase and four Keystone Regional Volleyball Association (KRVA) events. The USJN Hershey Showcase is a 4-day girls basketball event drawing more than 200 teams to compete on 20 courts, while the KRVA events each use up to 29 courts for both boys and girls tournaments. Both events take place in the complex’s 172,000-square-foot Expo Hall, and utilize SnapSport flooring that’s available for rent through HHSE. The complex is home to the Harrisburg Heat pro indoor soccer team, which plays its home games in the 7,300-seat New Holland Arena. Event organizers enjoy the seemingly unlimited setup options in a facility that boasts 7 halls, 3 arenas, banquet space and a full catering kitchen. All told, that’s nearly 1 million square feet of space under one roof. That kind of space is what led Mecum Auctions to bring its event to Harrisburg in 2014. The more collector cars you park under one roof, the more you can sell! Mecum Auctions posted more than $24 million in sales in 2018, which marked its 5th consecutive year in Harrisburg. The expo center hosts around 200 sporting events, expos and trade shows annually.
