West Henderson is about to get a serious upgrade to its indoor sports scene. A sprawling new complex, now branded Henderson Sport & Social, is rising behind Chicken N Pickle on St. Rose Parkway and is scheduled to open in October 2026. City leaders and the project’s operator say the roughly 180,000-square-foot, two-level fieldhouse will blend tournament-level courts, indoor turf and a family entertainment zone into one $70 million destination.
What the city says it will include
The City of Henderson describes the building as a 180,000-square-foot hub with four basketball courts that can convert to volleyball, two hybrid turf fields, a 30,000-square-foot family-entertainment area, fitness rooms and flexible event spaces. City officials also say Henderson residents will qualify for a 20% discount on programming and activities, and that the facility is meant to host youth leagues along with regional tournaments. According to City of Henderson, the complex is designed to expand recreational options without creating a long-term tax burden.
When it will open and who will run it
The project’s official site lists October 2026 as opening month and bills the venue as “a modern destination bringing sport, social life, and community together in Henderson.” The facility will be operated through a public-private partnership with KemperSports, which will manage day-to-day programming, events and hospitality. As stated on Henderson Sport & Social, that operator partnership is central to the venue’s business model.
Who’s paying for it
The development carries a roughly $70 million price tag, with local coverage reporting that KemperSports is contributing $10 million toward the project. City materials say the remaining one-time costs will be covered by a public infrastructure bond sale, the West Henderson Development Fund and the city’s municipal facilities fund. As reported by Las Vegas Review-Journal, officials have framed the deal as a way to boost economic activity without saddling residents with long-term tax obligations.
Construction progress and who’s building it
Design and construction contracts were awarded in December 2024, and the project officially broke ground on May 21, 2025. Whiting-Turner Contracting Company is serving as construction manager, with Klai Juba Wald Architecture + Interiors as design partner and Primak Construction Group providing building-shell and design-assist work. Clark County permitting records list the site at 3375 St. Rose Parkway, behind Chicken N Pickle in West Henderson, and recent trade coverage points to steelwork and site infrastructure moving ahead. As reported by Nevada Business, crews have been assembling the structural frame this spring.
Local impact and what’s next
Officials estimate the fieldhouse will support roughly 239 to 250 permanent jobs, generate about $1.5 million in annual tax revenue and produce nearly $40 million in annual economic output. Those projections underpin the city’s economic case for the project. The mix of tournament courts, indoor turf and family entertainment is designed to keep weekend visitors in town and attract traveling tournament business that might otherwise bypass Henderson.
Industry coverage has described potential family-entertainment elements ranging from laser tag and an arcade to miniature golf and as many as two dozen bowling lanes in some plans. Per trade reporting by SportsDestinationManagement, city leaders say the complex is expected to act as a catalyst for West Henderson’s broader growth.
Residents, teams and jobseekers can already sign up for updates and submit inquiries through the venue’s website, with booking and employment pages expected to go live as opening day gets closer. County filings list 3375 St. Rose Parkway as the project location for planning and permitting. For the latest announcements and booking information, see Henderson Sport & Social.
