The Five Flags Center is a multi-purpose arena located in Dubuque, Iowa. Originally opened in 1980 as the Sundowner Convention Center, it underwent a significant renovation and rebranding in 1993 becoming the Five Flags Center due to its proximity to the five flags that historically flew over Dubuque representing France, Spain, Great Britain, the United States and Iowa Territory. The venue hosts a variety of events including concerts, sporting events (primarily hockey as home to the Dubuque Fighting Saints), conventions and trade shows.
