WE ARE MUSIC.
WE ARE SPORTS.
WE ARE THE LIFE OF THE PARTY.
The future of entertainment starts now. Independent Nation and Sports Illustrated Clubhouse are joining forces to launch the ultimate adventure destination in Sunland Park, at the crossroads of New Mexico, Texas, and Mexico. Get ready for nonstop live sports from around the globe on the largest HD Jumbotron in the Southwest showcasing more than 100 feet of pure adrenaline. Brace yourself for ringside action in our combat sports arena, concerts and festivals that bring the house down, laugh-out-loud comedy that keeps the energy rolling, and a marketplace alive with the soul and craft of the border. But it doesn’t end there! Start building your crew for pickleball matches, axe-throwing sessions, and state-of-the-art immersive games. Independent Nation is designed for good times, EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.
While construction is underway, Independent Nation is hosting pregame pop-up events throughout the Borderland to give you a sneak peek into the revolution of entertainment and to start living it up with our future fans. Follow our calendar for the latest!
