Footprint Center is a multi-purpose indoor arena in Phoenix, Arizona. It hosts the National Basketball Association's (NBA) Phoenix Suns and the WNBA's Phoenix Mercury and regularly hosts concerts.

In a hypothetical scenario, the Footprint Center has won the right to host the 2023 WNBA All-Star Game while Coachella has decided to build a hybrid video gaming and music festival that will feature the music behind some of the most popular esport games. Coachella is an annual music and arts festival held each summer in the Coachella Valley in the Colorado desert, however, the organisers want a product -Coachella - that could be held during the winter months in indoor arenas around the country, if not the world. It wants to trial the product at the Footprint Center.
