  • Today, we take a moment to say goodbye to one of Cross Insurance Arena’s finest, Theresa Horton. A local Mainer from South Portland, that started selling tickets for the arena in 1978. Theresa became a staple in our box office with a sweet smile and gentle spirit that sold over 18 million tickets to our community during the course of her career. Known for her hard working ethic, love for travel, and endless supply of puppy treats that greet service animals through the box office window along with their owner’s tickets, Theresa made our venue a community home and will be forever missed. Today we are sending love and light to her family and friends.

  • Eating good in our Free St. neighborhood ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ . . . Our hardworking @cross_arena staff enjoyed a well-earned, INCREDIBLE meal at @Leewardmaine last night and it was such a treat! There aren't any pics of the food because we devoured every bit, but go check out their page to see all the pasta goodness- 😍@Leewardmaine. Being across the street, we could walk out our *closed* arena doors and see the pandemic rollercoaster that Leeward was riding. We are so excited for the brighter future of this Italian restaurant and the hospitality industry.

Can't wait to experience our neighbor's delicious food and drink again.      
  • With the recent decision to mark Juneteenth as a Federal Holiday, we are late to recognize and celebrate Juneteenth - our country’s second independence day when more than 250,000 enslaved black people were finally freed in Texas in 1865. We believe Juneteenth serves as an important part of Black History and American History in our country, and should be celebrated for its cultural and historical significance.
