Seven Feathers Event Center (formerly Compton Arena) is a 4,200-seat multi-purpose arena in Central Point, Oregon, United States, on the grounds of Jackson County Fairgrounds. [1] It hosts local concerts and sporting events and was the home arena for the Southern Oregon Heat of the National Indoor Football League in 2001, affectionately called "The Inferno". [2]

On July 3, 2015, it was announced that the Cow Creek Band of Umpqua Tribe of Indians had signed a three-year, $240,000 naming rights deal, naming the event center after its Seven Feathers Casino Resort in Canyonville. [3] The deal has since been extended.
