New Main Event FEC coming to Baton Rouge

US FEC chain Main Event is to open its first location in the state of Louisiana later this year, according to reports.

In yet another example of an LBE outfit taking over shuttered retail space, Main Event Entertainment will move into a space vacated by electronics retailer H.H.Gregg in the Mall of Louisiana in Baton Rouge.

Permits have been received to commence work and over US$6m is thought to be going into the creation of the 49,450sq.ft centre.
