Bookman’s Event Center

I have been the Bookman’s Event Center several times for Tucson Comic Con and Tucson Roller Derby events. The staff are courteous and helpful and the facilities are clean. While I was there for the Comic Con the owner was actually wandering around asking vendors/​artists how everything was and was it set up well for them, which I really appreciated. It is a large warehouse and the parking is in ample supply here. It’s a little tough to find if you’re not familiar with the location, it’s behind a large RV sales place just off of I-​10 and Irvington. The bathrooms are quite dated and there are only four stalls in the women’s restroom. Overall though I think it’s a good facility.

My Bro and I rolled in here to watch Tucson Roller Derby. We didn’t know what to expect but was pleasantly surprised by the space. There were lots of people but it wasn’t crowded and there was plenty of room for the tables for selling t-​shirts and baked goods.
Minus 1 star cuz the floor’s concrete and hurts your legs after standing/​walking on it for 2 hours. There were chairs but they were all filled up. Most of the chairs didn’t have padding either. I don’t think added more chairs is an option because there would need to be a riser to lift the back rows up so people could see. As this is a multipurpose facility there’s limits as to what can be done.
Hey, it would be great for Fight-​Club! Oops, I’m not suppose to talk about that.

They let us [Tucson Roller Derby] skate here with minimum hassle and maximum flexiblity! Thanks for being a reliable venue… looking forward to ComiCon!

This place hosts a huge variety of events.
It’s basically a giant empty warehouse but it’s had some pretty cool events there including, Roller Derby, and Mexican Independence Day Celebration.
There is plenty of parking and it’s right near the freeway so don’t be afraid to check it out.
