Allstate Arena is a multi-purpose arena in Rosemont, Illinois, United States, northwest of Chicago, located at the corner of Mannheim Road and Lunt Avenue, just north of Mannheim Road's interchange with the Jane Addams Memorial Tollway (I-90) about 3 miles (4.8 km) north of O'Hare International Airport.

The Village of Rosemont issued $19 million in bonds to finance the cost of the arena with exclusive contracts with Araserv, the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus, and MFG International.

One distinctive feature of the Allstate Arena is its timber roof, designed to muffle the sounds of any passing aircraft descending into and taking off from nearby O'Hare International Airport.

[5] Insurance company Allstate signed a 10-year contract worth more than $10 million on June 9, 1999, to acquire naming rights to the arena and renovate it.

[6] On December 29, 2002, Creed gave a concert at the arena with lead singer Scott Stapp obnoxiously high and drunk.

After barely performing and mumbling incoherently through the first songs, he fell asleep onstage for a few minutes and the show ended early.

These include Hulk Hogan, Bret Hart, Ric Flair, The Rock, Steve Austin, John Cena, Triple H, Roman Reigns, and Chicago native CM Punk.

Since 2006, WrestleMania has not returned to the Chicago area, as the city has presumably failed to provide a large enough venue for the event; the largest currently being Soldier Field, the smallest NFL stadium.

When the arena was known as Rosemont Horizon, the venue hosted American Wrestling Association (AWA) events in the Chicago area during the 1980s, replacing the International Amphitheatre.

It was also the standard venue for World Championship Wrestling (WCW) events in the Chicago area during the mid-1990s, replacing the UIC Pavilion.

The arena has been the site of many concerts, including by The Rolling Stones, The Who, Fleetwood Mac, Bon Jovi, Van Halen, Prince, Whitney Houston, Michael Jackson, The Cure, Mariah Carey, Cher, U2, Bruce Springsteen, Madonna, Elton John, Janet Jackson, Britney Spears, BTS, Ateez, Blackpink, Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande, Scorpions, AC/DC, Tina Turner, Metallica, Andrea Bocelli, Green Day, Grateful Dead, Phish, My Chemical Romance, Marilyn Manson, Nine Inch Nails, Ricky Martin, Lorde, Justin Timberlake, Foo Fighters, R.E.M., Justin Bieber, Queen, Rauw Alejandro, IU, Trans-Siberian Orchestra, Kylie Minogue, Suga, and J-Hope.

Lead singer Scott Stapp (who had endured a widely publicized addiction to alcohol) arrived to the performance too intoxicated to enunciate any lyrics.
