In addition to shows, the arena is also home to the Reading Royals, a minor league ice hockey team; the Reading Express, an arena football team; and the Reading Railers, a professional Men's basketball team that just finished their debut season at the Sovereign Center.
The Reading Eagle Theater, which is a smaller version of the Sovereign Center arena, was created in the Summer of 2004 when the Reading Eagle Newspaper purchased naming rights. When the arena is transformed into the theatre it becomes a smaller, more intimate setting for shows ranging in size from 2,500 to 4,500 patrons. Artists such as Dolly Parton, Dave Koz, Marilyn Manson, and Brad Paisley have all played the Reading Eagle Theater.
