The Hub, Fargo’s Newest Entertainment Destination to Open Early December
November 15, 2007
Fargo, ND will soon be the home of the largest entertainment destination in the Upper Mid-West. The Hub, located at 2525 9th Avenue SW, is in the building formerly known as Playmakers and the House of Rock. With over 30,000 square feet, The Hub will contain multiple nightclubs and restaurants in a deeply themed environment supported by world class entertainment technology. The Hub promises to be the Upper Mid-West’s farthest reaching evening destination.
Positioned and designed to create an unforgettable experience, The Hub will feature seven different nightclubs and multiple restaurants within one giant complex.
“We’ve created a powerful destination with great entertainment for everyone,” says Jon Taffer, President of Taffer Dynamics Inc., an award winning entertainment consultant out of Palm Beach, Florida. Taffer was engaged by the property’s owners to mastermind the project’s conceptualization and development.
The Hub will be a world class lifestyle destination with incredible entertainment options for lovers of rock ‘n roll, country music, sports, dance and other entertainment formats. Every aspect of each of The Hub’s operating concepts has been strategically designed to meet the needs of a specific audience.
“Guests will be surprised by the differences in our venues as they wander and experience the facility. We’ve created an atmosphere that will reach guests from ages 21 to 55….wait till you see it,” says Taffer.
The Hub has stopped at nothing to make this project special and unique. In addition to Taffer Dynamics, The Hub has engaged other entertainment industry giants to bring a national experience and quality to their facility.
“We are working with exceptional companies such as Jones Baker Design (Dallas) for our interiors and Magnum Music (Houston) who is designing and managing our seven succinct music and entertainment formats,” says Kerry Fernholz, the project’s Vice President and General Manager.
Within its seven operations, The Hub will always have something going on. “The Hub will always have live music, DJ’s, radio personalities, promotions, contests, and specials; everyday will be a party,” explains Tiffany Olson, Director of Marketing & Public Relations. In general, most restaurants and nightclubs do daily promotions; Olson explains that The Hub will have seven different venues doing promotions almost every hour. “There will be many, many reasons to come to The Hub ,” boasts Olson.
The much anticipated unveiling of The Hub will begin with a special invitation only Premiere night on November 29, 2007.
“The special event is for about 1,000 of our closest friends and clients before we open to the public,” says Olson.
These exclusive invitations will be distributed on-air through partner radio stations, promotional partners and through select sources over the next couple of weeks as the opening approaches.
“These tickets are hot, everyone wants to be the first in the door to see The Hub,” raves Olson. No doubt, these will be a “hot ticket” with big bragging rights for those lucky few who get into the Premiere party at The Hub.
As of today, management at The Hub is still keeping things “top secret” right down to the exterior of the building. Many are speculating and rumors are floating around about what is going to happen.
“Some of the rumors are really crazy,” says Taffer. “All the speculation will end next week when we begin to announce our venue names,” promises Taffer.
Taffer did offer some insider information on The Hub. “One of our seven venues will be named, “The Fan Club Grill & Sports Bar” in conjunction with The Fan radio station.” Taffer explains. The Fan will have a great menu, a terrific sports viewing system; a Fan radio broadcast booth and much, much more for sports fans. “No doubt it will become one of America’s best sports themed operations,” promises Olson. One down and six to go!
The Hub will open its doors to the general public on Friday, November 30, 2007 at 7pm. A “Grand Opening Week” will follow with activities including lunch, happy hours, evening promotions and entertainment. No advance tickets or invitations are necessary.

Well there went the last place in town to let people under 21 in to see some concerts im almost 21 and it still pisses me off fuck the laws.Why do you say that? I didn't see anything about the Venue stopping all ages concerts.
I'm just happy to hear that all the rumors about it becoming all country bar weren't true.

I know a little more, but cannot elaborate on it at this time (we bid part of the upgrade)

might she be implying that its 21 and up?

No, the Venue, for the most part, is unchanged. The main bar, and house of rock were the main focus of the remodel and they are 21+ areas as is.

Last time we ever went to the venue it seemed to be 98% black/bosnian dudes trying to hit on the few ugly girls that were there. It started out decent and then just took a nose-dive it seems like...

They'll get busy, then fall off and the cycle never ends.

He has owned Playmakers forever. He did however, just buy Hooters.

The Venue on thrusday nights FTMFW! It would be their worst decision ever to make the whole place into a country bar. Obviously since they have made it into a nicer, a little more upscale type of place, they're doing great. I wonder how much this remodeling costs. They have already spent something like $6 million in the last 4 years or so?
