The new manager of the KFC YUM! Center will likely be a familiar partner.
The Arena Authority’s executive committee has chosen Los Angeles’s AEG Worldwide to enter into contract negotiations and replace the Kentucky State Fair Board. The company already books events in the center, which Arena Authority Chairman Larry Hayes said was a major reason for its selection.
The Arena Authority chose to disconnect from the state fair board earlier this year after a consulting firm said the state’s operating costs were high.
