Northwestern University Athletics and Allstate Arena have reached an agreement for the Rosemont, Illinois, venue to serve as the host of Northwestern men's basketball home games during the 2017-18 season.
A venue is needed to host Wildcat men's basketball games in 2017-18 due to a complete renovation of Welsh-Ryan Arena that will begin in the spring of 2017 and is scheduled for completion in the fall of 2018.
