The Xcel Energy Center is the premier destination for sporting events and live entertainment in the Twin Cities area. Home to the Minnesota Wild hockey team, the X, as the venue is called, hosts sell-out crowds of over 18,000 who come to see the action and cheer for the home team. This downtown St. Paul entertainment venue also hosts concerts and other live performances, which have included the likes of Simon and Garfunkel, Pavarotti, Tim McGraw, the Rolling Stones and Prince (a hometown favorite), along with political functions like the 2008 Republican National Convention.
