West-Cal Arena & Events Center

West-Cal Arena & Events Center is a dual-purpose event complex in Sulphur, Louisiana, just minutes from Lake Charles. The facility pairs a full-scale indoor arena with a dedicated events center, giving planners the flexibility to host everything from equestrian competitions and livestock shows to galas, concerts, weddings, corporate conferences, and family reunions. The events center anchors the property with the Calcasieu Exhibition Hall — a 14,000-square-foot main hall with a 30-foot open ceiling that seats up to 800 banquet-style or 1,200 theater-style. The hall divides into half or quarter sections for smaller gatherings, and the building also includes modular meeting rooms equipped with state-of-the-art audio and video technology. An executive board room and additional private meeting space round out the options for smaller groups. The West-Cal Arena adds a 120-by-260-foot floor and permanent seating for more than 1,800 patrons, supported by a warm-up area, barn stalls for livestock events, 65 RV hookups, and over seven acres of lighted parking. A full-service kitchen accommodates multiple caterers for events across both facilities.
