Chicago, IL (PRWEB) June 29, 2015 -- Arena Americas, a full service special event rental company, has entered into a 4-year agreement with the United States Golf Association to provide tenting, flooring and other rental equipment for the U.S. Open Championship.

Arena began installation in March for last week’s tournament at Chambers Bay, which included over 400,000 square feet of tenting structures and over 500,000 square feet of leveled elevated flooring. These pavilions were utilized for Corporate Hospitality, Merchandise, Sponsor and Media facilities, as well as Concessions, Admission and Security areas.
