History
In fall 2018, the City of Savannah announced plans for the construction of a new arena in the westside to replace the Martin Luther King, Jr. Arena at the Savannah Civic Center. In 2019, the proposed new arena broke ground on Stiles Avenue in Savannah. In January 2021, the ECHL approved a 2022–23 season expansion team to play out of the new arena. [2] In July 2021, Enmarket secured the naming rights to the arena to be named Enmarket Arena.[1]
