Enjoyed the arena, kids first time there and they loved it. Comfortable seating and great visibility throughout, even higher up 3rd level. We sat at the first level and were happy to move further back and in the angled seats to see better and sound was better than being up close. We did the free Maren Morris concert and it became open seating. No wait to get in but same crazy expensive food and drinks you’d expect, wasn’t happy I tried their signature cocktail for the night and there’s no price displayed but rang up over $20 for a small cup. Good range of options for food and drinks inside, nothing wild.

I love this arena. I have only been to the club seats. "Thank you Cool Today for the tickets" the food is fantastic. The bartenders are wonderful, and the drinks are made just right. I never knew i loved hocky until I came here.

By far the best arena we’ve ever visited. Extremely quick Security, friendly staff, and also extremely serious about Security which in this age that’s an amazing thing. From lightning games to concerts, we have never had a bad time here. All of their sound technology and screens are very high-tech, and there is an amazing amount of food options inside the Arena itself.
