The complex was named for Bob Perani, owner of Perani's Hockey World, a sports equipment retailer in Flint. Perani's Hockey World paid for naming rights to the complex. Bob Perani was a goalie for the Flint Generals from 1969 to 1974. His jersey, #1, is one of only five numbers retired by the team.

In 2020, the Dort Financial Center underwent renovations and updating. Renovations included updated seating in the main arena, as well as LED ribbon panels that would encircle the entire arena. The updated black leather seats, as well as the LED panels, were both acquired from The Palace of Auburn Hills before it was demolished. The renovations gave the arena a uniform seating appearance, while the LED panels are capable of displaying advertisements and sports scoreboards simultaneously. [5]

In July 2015, Dort Federal Credit Union (which rebranded as Dort Financial Credit Union in 2020) secured a 10-year deal, initially calling the venue Dort Federal Credit Union Event Center, which was updated to its current name following the credit union's rebranding, with the partnership extended through 2035 in October 2024. The center's main arena has a seating capacity of 4,365 for hockey games and up to 6,469 for general admission concerts, while the auxiliary arena supports additional recreational activities such as public skating, soccer, , and youth sports programs. Since 2015, it has served as the home of the , a team in the (OHL), drawing average crowds of around 3,000 per game and contributing to the revival of Flint's sports culture after the departure of previous franchises like the .

History

Construction and Opening

The IMA Sports Arena, originally conceived as a multi-purpose sports and entertainment facility in , was developed by the Industrial Mutual Association (IMA), a supporting local workers' recreational needs. Construction of the arena, funded entirely by the IMA, cost $10 million (equivalent to $82.6 million in 2024 dollars) and began with groundbreaking in 1967, culminating in its completion two years later. The project aimed to provide a modern venue capable of accommodating , basketball, concerts, and community gatherings, reflecting Flint's industrial heritage and growing demand for local entertainment options. The arena's initial design incorporated a dual-arena layout, featuring a primary with seating for over 4,000 spectators and an auxiliary space for simultaneous events, enhancing operational flexibility for diverse programming. This configuration allowed the facility to host multiple activities at once, from to public skating sessions, setting it apart as a versatile community asset from its inception. The venue officially opened in October 1969, coinciding with the inaugural season of the , an expansion team in the International Hockey League established to anchor the arena's programming. Early promotional efforts included a grand opening brochure outlining planned sporting events and demonstrations, drawing crowds for the Generals' home debut and marking the facility's launch as a hub for Flint's sports scene.

Renaming and Ownership Changes

In 2003, the venue, previously known as the IMA Sports Arena, was renamed Perani Arena and Event Center following a agreement with Perani's Hockey World, a local sports equipment retailer owned by former Bob Perani. The sponsorship, which highlighted Perani's contributions to local hockey, expired in 2009 but the name remained in use until 2015 amid ongoing operational challenges. Flint's broader economic difficulties, stemming from the decline of the automotive industry and resulting in reduced attendance and facility neglect, contributed to instability in sponsorship and management during this period. In early 2015, IMS Hockey Corporation, led by owner Rolf Nilsen, acquired the arena and the relocating Ontario Hockey League franchise that became the Flint Firebirds, marking a significant ownership transition to IMS Hockey Corp. with operations handled by IMS Hockey Management, LLC. Later that year, on July 9, 2015, the facility was rebranded as Dort Federal Event Center through a 10-year partnership with the Flint-based Dort Federal , replacing the Perani name and signaling renewed investment in the venue. In September 2020, following the credit union's rebranding to Dort Financial , the arena adopted its current name, Dort Financial Center. On October 10, 2024, the agreement was extended for an additional 10 years, securing the Dort Financial name through the 2034-35 season and reinforcing long-term stability under IMS Hockey's management. This extension underscores the venue's adaptation to regional economic pressures while maintaining its role as a community hub.

Renovations and Upgrades

In the , the venue, then known as Perani Arena and Event Center, underwent significant upgrades to modernize its facilities for diverse events. In , nearly $1 million was invested in enhancements including updated food service equipment, refreshed concession counters, enhanced arena , fresh paint, and roof improvements. Following the 2015 acquisition by owner Rolf Nilsen, an additional $5 million was allocated for improvements such as new concession stands, locker rooms, and upgrades, with another $4 million that year dedicated to new ice arena boards and glass, a high-definition center-ice , LED throughout, and pro-style locker rooms. These changes enhanced the venue's versatility for hockey, concerts, and conventions while supporting Flint's broader revitalization initiatives. The most prominent recent renovation occurred in 2020, a $2 million project that introduced nearly 4,000 black leather seats salvaged from the demolished , creating a uniform seating appearance across the main arena. Additional features included LED ribbon panels encircling Arena I for improved scoring and event displays, along with new concession and bar equipment to streamline operations. Post-2020 enhancements have continued to build on these efforts, with total capital improvements exceeding $8 million since , funded largely by private investments from owner Rolf Nilsen and sponsorships including from Dort Financial . Key additions encompassed a new video board, LED signage, rink resurfacing, and the construction of the Dort Financial Center Club lounge, all while preserving the original dual-arena configuration.

Former Tenants

The Dort Financial Center, originally known as the IMA Sports Arena, has hosted several professional and semi-professional ice hockey teams since its opening in 1969, reflecting the venue's role in Flint's sports history amid economic shifts. The Flint Generals, an International Hockey League (IHL) franchise, were the arena's inaugural tenant, beginning play in the 1969–70 season as an expansion team founded by local businessman Frank Gallagher. Over their initial 16-year run through 1984–85, the Generals qualified for the playoffs in all but their debut season, compiling a strong record of 561–559–122 (wins–losses–ties) and capturing two Turner Cups in 1976 and 1984. Notable players included forward Doug Manchak, who led the team with 61 goals in the 1983–84 championship season, and goaltenders Merlin Jenner and Bob Volpe, who anchored the defense during the title runs. The team relocated to Saginaw, Michigan, after the 1984–85 season due to failed lease negotiations with arena management and mounting six-figure annual losses exacerbated by rising operational costs. The Generals name returned to Flint in 1993–94 when the Flint Bulldogs franchise relocated from , and rebranded under new . This second iteration of the Generals played through the 2009–10 season, first in the Colonial Hockey League (later ) before rejoining the revived IHL in 2007, and achieved success with a Colonial Cup victory in 1996 against the Senators. Standout contributors included forwards Kevin Kerr, who amassed 674 points over his tenure, and Brian Sakic with 628 points, alongside defenseman Stéphane Brochu. The team folded in 2010 amid financial difficulties, including insufficient transition and scheduling conflicts with the arena's junior hockey commitments. Following the original Generals' departure, the Flint Spirits entered the IHL as an for the 1985–86 season, directly transitioning to left by the relocated franchise under local of Laraine and Carl Lamb. The Spirits struggled competitively, posting an overall record of 162–214–30 (including overtime losses) across five seasons, making the in 1986–87 and 1987–88 but never advancing past the first round, with low attendance that saw events like WWF wrestling shows outdraw their full-season gate receipts. shifted to Bob Couche in 1988 in an effort to stabilize operations, but the team folded after the 1989–90 season due to persistent financial losses, lack of an NHL affiliate, and escalating IHL franchise costs amid declining fan support. From 2010 to 2015, the Michigan Warriors of the (NAHL), a Tier II junior league, called the arena home after relocating from , where they had operated as the Marquette Rangers. The Warriors enjoyed moderate success, capturing the NAHL North Division title in 2010 and reaching the Robertson Cup finals that season, followed by a semifinal appearance in 2013–14, with an overall playoff record of 16-10 across five postseasons.
