About Global Entertainment

Global Entertainment Corporation, a public company headquartered in Phoenix, Arizona, is engaged in sports management, arena and related real estate development, facility and venue management and marketing, venue ticketing and branded licensing. Global markets small- to mid-sized communities throughout the United States in which development of a multi-purpose events center can offer a positive impact for the area's economic development.

Diversified Growth

Originally established as an owner and franchisor of minor professional league hockey teams, the Company's hockey league division currently is a franchisor of hockey teams and operates the Central Hockey League. In 2000, building on its expertise in the sports industry, the Company diversified its operations with the acquisition of an arena development company and entered the field of design and construction management of arena faclities for existing teams within the CHL league and to market the development of multi-purpose events centers to small- to mid-size communities throughout the United States and into Canada.

Further Diversification

The Company further diversified its revenue stream with the forming of a marketing division, Global Entertainment Marketing Systems, followed by Global Entertainment's facility management group, Encore Facility Management, and Global Entertainment Ticketing (GetTix.net), a full service venue ticketing company.

Today, the Company is best recognized for its unparalleled expertise in the development of multi-purpose events centers for small- to mid-size communities and for its full complement of services offered in support of the long-term viability of a new arena project.

Central Hockey League

The Central Hockey League celebrates its 17th season of play in 2008-2009 continuing to build on a tradition of outstanding competition and entertainment first established in the early 90’s. In the CHL’s first four seasons of play, the CHL had the unique distinction of centralized ownership. Now, all of the CHL’s current 16 member clubs are operated independently.Arguably the most significant change over the past 16 years came in May of 2001, as the Central and Western Professional Hockey Leagues joined forces at a press conference in Oklahoma City that combined the top markets within both organizations under the CHL banner. The merger has been highly successful, with the CHL reaching several significant attendance marks in each season since. In the 2007-2008 campaign, more than 2.3 million people walked through the gates at games in the CHL. In six of the past seven seasons, the CHL has led all “AA” professional hockey leagues in average attendance.The CHL welcomes the Rapid City Rush this season as the lone expansion franchise. They will play in the Rushmore Plaza Civic Center Arena and will play their first home game on November 29th. In 2009, the CHL will welcome two more expansion teams, one in Allen, Texas and the other in Independence, Missouri.

International Coliseums Company

ICC expanded its operations during 2005. There were two completions of multi-purpose events centers in 2006 in Rio Rancho, New Mexico and for Prescott Valley in the Company's home state of Arizona.

Two new projects are currently under way in Allen, TX and Independence, MO, these projects are scheduled to open in Fall of 2009.
