The WCC's eight-year tournament contract with Orleans Arena expired after the 2016 WCC tournament, with the WCC looking to potentially moving the tournament to a different Las Vegas-area venue (the MGM Grand Garden Arena or the T-Mobile Arena), keep it at the Orleans Arena, or move it elsewhere.[2] In May 2016, the WCC announced that it reached an agreement on a new three-year contract with the Orleans Arena, which will run through the 2019 WCC year-end tournament.[3]
