The La Crosse Center is a multi-purpose arena in downtown La Crosse, Wisconsin, that was built in 1980. The arena can seat between 5,000 and 7,500 depending on the type of event.

The Center is also a convention center; in addition to the arena, which offers 21600sqft of exhibit space, two locker rooms, and three dressing rooms. There is also a 14935sqft North Hall which can open up to the arena to be used in combination, and a 38740sqft South Exhibit Hall; all three venues total 75275sqft of exhibit space. The complex also contains 9432sqft of meeting room space in five meeting rooms, which can be divided into nine meeting rooms.

While both exhibit halls and the arena are used for trade shows, conventions, meetings and banquets, the arena is also used for sporting events, concerts, circuses, ice shows, and other events.

In addition, the center is home to countless exhibits and shows. One noteworthy event is the annual Bi-State Classic high school wrestling tournament. The center holds ten full-size wrestling mats and up to 55 wrestling squads.

The most recent change to the La Crosse Center was a fifty-foot skywalk spanning over Second Street in downtown La Crosse. The skywalk links a five floor parking ramp with the east end of the convention center.

The La Crosse Center is situated less than 300 feet (91.44 meters) from the banks of the Mississippi River, and Riverside Park in Downtown La Crosse.
