As a newbie to college hockey I can't think of a better place to start your journey than the Mariucci center. A friend graced us with tickets and we went on a Sunday night. The environment is unlike anything I have experienced at the pro level with knowledgeable fans, rich history and a cool arena that makes you want to return. I can see why people love to root for this team it feels like family when you are there!

Really nice place. I have been in the cheap seats and in a suite. Every time I have been at the arena it has been a blast. Really good views, fun atmosphere, great food. They have security but not to much. Good close by parking that they don't charge to much for and easy access to the freeways. Lots of local places in walking distance to eat or hang out after.

This is a great arena to come and watch hockey. It is designed well and has a ton of seats! I have been to many other events here besides hockey games, I actually had my college graduation ceremony in this arena! The staff are always very friendly and helpful. The concessions here are better than at most arenas too. They have a kemp's ice cream vendor which is awesome, and decently priced! They have many options so if you are going to eat here during a game, you will find something you like. Getting in and out of arena is also very easy, doesn't take long at all. The bathrooms are usually very clean and up to par as well! If you haven't seen a hockey game at the UMN yet, it is super fun. And most games, you can find very reasonably priced tickets.

Mariucci Arena is a premier hockey arena! The atmosphere and the fans are amazing! Big enough to enjoy the game, yet intimate enough to feel like you are part of the game! There's really not a bad seat in the house and great sight lines even from behind the nets. I love the fact that Mariucci is only one level too which makes for an even better fan experience. Plus you cant go wrong with cheering on the Gophers on their amazing home ice! Bring cash for concessions and parking. Only Goldy's Snack Shack accepts credit/debit cards.

Phenomenal atmosphere. Minnesotans take their hockey seriously, and this is as proud as you can get with respect to a sports venue.

Not even sure what to say. Phenomenal game day experience as always, great team play, loud fans,…read morewolves back. However, as I was exiting basketball heaven, I felt a warm squirt liquid come over me and my new 7 rally towel friends. At first I thought Kuminga was surprising me, but I was disappointed to find the color of the liquid was infact bright yellow. Mustard squirt. My shoes, socks, pants, and Anthony Edwards Georgia jersey, that I paid $136 for, are all stained bright yellow! No worse way to end a day. Awoooooo

I worked at Target Center for 10 years as part of the MN Timberwolves and the arena always felt…read morelike a second home to me. Seeing the remodel, knowing all the secret hallways and backstages crevices, I really got to understand all components of the space. Helping guests navigate ramps A and B were a daily occurrence for me along with entertaining fans on camera. Flash forward to today's world, I feel a little out of sync not being there 24/7 yet there is still so much familiarity. I attended the Cardi B concert in the suite level and as I remember, every staff member was extremely helpful and the suite level was decked out with balloons and was extremely clean. I still get chills thinking about the stage managers who can transform a basketball court into a concert stage and then into an ice arena and back again. The level of detail is always mind blowing. Bravo!!! I look forward to my return to TC in whatever capacity that is. Thank you!

This is such an amazing and beautiful upgrade!! My review is based on a concert experience, but I hope to come back for a game someday! I visited from out of state for the Noah Kahan concert and everything was very well organized. I arrived during the opening acts and there was no line at all to get in. There were plenty of staff in place to keep crowds under control and ensure that people got to the correct section. My seat was on the field and I loved that there were bathrooms and concessions available in this area so that I didn't have to leave the field while I was there. My only complaint is that it was extremely difficult to get phone reception, and others around me had the same issue. I really liked the area surrounding this park as well. Lots of hotels, restaurants, etc in walking distance, and so many parking lots and garages that were very reasonably priced.

A NORTHERN PASTIME…read more The Minnesota Twins' home ballpark is a great venue to watch a game. I took my family on vacation to Minneapolis in early June, and in doing so I was able to check off Target Field from my list of MLB stadiums (7th in the AL, 12th overall).  Tickets on a weekday afternoon to see the Twins play the Chicago White Sox were pretty cheap, far less than what I expected. Security was friendly and we got our stroller + stuff in easily.  We sat in section 133, an area in right-center field that always has shade thanks to a large upper deck directly above it.  In front of us were some planted flowers, props to the Twins landscaping crew for keeping things green and colorful. In several spots at Target Field, you can find grab-and-go kiosks stocked with a number of classic ballpark snacks at reduced prices: $4 hot dogs, $3 peanuts, $3 popcorn, $4 pretzel w/cheese, and $5 cans of light beer. These no-frills offerings were PERFECT for me and the fam, plus it saved us a bunch of money. When we stopped at guest services to get a "my 1st Twins game" certificate for the kids, the guy behind the window tossed a couple of dog-eared papers our way and said nothing.  No midwestern warmth for visiting fans as my Sox proceeded to paddle the Twinkies 8-0. Once the game ended, we hit a massive traffic logjam trying to leave the top deck of the parking garage.  Since there was only 1 way out--the bottom floor--we had no choice but to wait for all the lower levels to clear in turn.  A full hour and a half later, I was able to drive everyone (now fast asleep) back to the hotel.  Ooof. When a Twins player hits a home run, a large neon sign in center field features "Minnie and Paul" shaking hands, a nod to Minnesota's former minor league teams the Minneapolis Millers and the St Paul Saints.  This sign also flashes 'Twins Win' anytime the home team secures a victory. * TL;DR * Target Field is one of the nicest stadiums I've experienced in the big leagues--Truist Park (Atlanta) and Nationals Park (D.C.) also fit this mold. Being able to get ballpark snacks for cheap was absolutely clutch, as my kids weren't interested in a $12 Kramarczuk's sausage and I was thankful to not shell out $14/beer.  We dug the open-air vibes of the right field concourse and overall facilities were nice. I still gotta dock a star because leaving the game was absolutely brutal.  No stadium is perfect and exiting traffic can often be a hassle, but 90 minutes of not moving isn't fun for anyone.  A different parking scenario for us and it's a 5* experience for sure. If you find yourself in the Twin Cities between April and October, check the Twins schedule and try to catch a game here.
