Went to a recent concert here and wow!!! What an underrated venue. I'd been a few times for hockey games, but never a concert. I feel like an old person complaining, but it was SO loud and the lights were blinding. At one point I put my sunglasses back on because it was like staring at the sun omg. Otherwise, great show. All seats are good seats since it's a smaller venue. Will gladly go back to see another artist I like perform there!

Approaching the coliseum

This building is known as Coca-Cola Coliseum these days. I grew up knowing it to be the CNE Coliseum or even the Royal Coliseum. Back then, it was used for the Royal Agricultural Fair and agricultural displays. When I moved back to the greater Toronto area from Winnipeg, I attended many Toronto Marlies games. The Marlies are a part of the American Hockey League (AHL) and the farm team of the Toronto Maple Leafs. This place was known as Ricoh Coliseum back then. I was a huge fan of the Manitoba Moose and would take in a game when the Moose played the Marlies. I ended up also supporting the Marlies. Marlies games are super affordable compared to taking in Leafs games. It's great if you love watching hockey live without breaking any bank and declaring bankrupcy. I remember staff being friendly and helpful at all my games that I attended. It's an arena that probably houses under 8,000 people. You don't have a bad seat in the house. I was recently in the vicinity and fond hockey memories all came back to me. The coliseum is a part of Enercare Centre. There is underground parking. Credit cards are accepted at the machine. You'll need to use the same credit card to exit. Otherwise, there's an attendant during game day who can help you with your transaction. I remember heading to the coliseum from the underground parking lot, which required you to exit Enercare Centre briefly to go into the building that leads you to the coliseum. It sounds odd, but many of the original buildings were separate entities where you could not readily walk through all of them. It makes sense that you do need to head outside, but it's for such a brief period that it's negligible. The Marlies are currently in the third round of playoffs. Part of me feels bad that I haven't been as supportive as I used to be. I blame being a Minnesota Wild fan and flying down to see the team play. Even with the exchange rate, tickets are much cheaper than getting Leafs ones. I don't remember ever getting food at Marlies hockey games. I have mostly had pop as my drink of choice. It's affordable. Concession stands are decent here. I should take in a game and rekindle watching in-person AHL games again. I should also check out the food, as I'm more of a snacker during hockey games these days. (139)

Attended a show at Coca-Cola Coliseum during the Canadian National Exhibition (CNE), which is home to the Toronto Marlies of the Ontario Hockey League (OHL). This 7,779 seat arena venue is part of the Enercare Centre exhibition complex at Exhibition Place. Many know this building as the former Ricoh Coliseum pre-1998.

Formally the RICOH COLISEUM, Coca-Cola recently bought the naming rights for this arena and home to the Toronto Marlies (AHL affiliate of the Toronto Maple Leafs). Value for money, attending a game is as good as it gets, tickets for lower bowl, about 8-10 rows from the glass, were under $25 each. And on the right day/night you'll have the chance to see actual future NHLers duke it out. I have to say the quality of hockey was far more physical than watching the NHL, and the skill level of the teams was certainly much lower (low quality passes, lower speed game). It likely has to do with player development, I enjoyed the physical aspect but missed the quality plays the big league team has in abundance. The arena itself is older, and the entry process at the beginning is clunky and a bit slow. They have limited staff and everyone needs to pass through one of 3 security checkpoints. It moves quickly but is still touch and go. Food options are a step above Arena food, but a step below pro arenas but also below pro level pricing. Beer on the other hand is on par with big league prices. Overall, I'd say it's a good family activity that doesn't break the bank, I think we'd go back since going to see the Leafs requires a second mortgage.

Toronto Marlies versus Hamilton Bulldogs @Ricoh Coliseum. Therefore this is based on the stadium being a Hockey game venue. I have been at this multi-venue stadium before while The Royal Agriculture Winter Fair had Horse Show was on but I didn't get entrance to it. Overall I find much similarities to the ACC specifically to be the little Brother of. The Acoustic Speakers and Base were small in size barely noticeable compared to everything else hanging up in the rafters but for a Hockey game it was plenty enough to hear the Announcer clearly and FEEL it as well. The Scoreboard and Panels are a bit downscaled here although it is somewhat expected. It is difficult for people in attendance to understand and keep track of Who, When, What. On the other hand, I do find the seats designed at a comfortable height and comfort level. Ricoh is made for smaller scale venues so there was no Level 500(Rogers Centre) or Level 300(ACC) meaning that everybody at this 50%(4,000) capacity game had good close up vision of the action.

Mesmerized by the view, show and seats!

Needed to get tickets for the Wiggles concert.... floor seats for 4 or a suite for 12... hrmmm, no brainer... Emailed MLSE and paper work was done within a few hours and tickets were at my door in 2days... We got upgraded from 12 to the 30 person suite, no one else was there.... I think it would have been "tight" for 30 big boned men. But for 8 crazy kids, oh boy, it was a little playground... The room was clean before we entered, the seats were spacious, arm rests don't go up. the staff was friendly and helpful. View and sound were great. Food was standard fare, but pricey for a Minor league arena, and the waits(mostly because people are using plastic) are a. It long. Only problem I've experienced is when Ricoh has an event and TFC is playing that causes a bit of parking frustration. For a KIDS concert, I think it's a solid 5 star venue! TSO, Ozzy, AC/DC at the ACC would make this place look like a 1 ... Marlies vs Leafs. you're paying 1/5th so I think it balances out. If you enjoy spending $200 for upper bowl seats as opposed to $50 for glass this place isn't for you. But if you'd like to spend a bit less for the venue so you can use those savings for food... Ricoh has plenty to offer. 5 stars for MLSE staff 5 stars for price 1 for food variety 1 for food price(considering where you are) big league prices... 5 for parking if nothing else happening at the exhibition otherwise 1. 1 entrance, yes, but this isn't the acc to need 10 gates... concert halls only have 1 entrance too! Yes I would recommend Yes I'll be coming back

So, up went the Ricoh Coliseum in a central easy to get to location that houses some fairly decent tier-below-the-top hockey.

There's not a lot to this stadium. The shops aren't very well developed, and the food options are…read morelimited. There is a water fountain near the entrance: the trick is to twist the spout around 180 degrees so you can fill your water bottle. But, put it back so you don't just have water splashing onto the floor by those not expecting that. The one thing that you want to pay attention to is the side you sit on. If there's an afternoon game, and you're on the east side... well, the sun sets in the west, so that sun is directly on you. And it gets hot. Very very hot. Also, make sure you have a clear bag if you want to take anything in... It's not the worst stadium, and when you're in your seats it looks great, but it doesn't have a lot to offer.

This review marks my 3,000th one. Crazy, huh?…read more I wanted to review something either in Toronto or the GTA to mark this milestone. It's BMO Field. As with many of my reviews, I do have a different spin. Here's mine with this stadium. BMO Field is where the old Exhibition Stadium used to be. BMO Field was established in 2007. It is the home of the Toronto Argonauts (Canadian Football League) and Toronto FC (Football (soccer) Club). I have seen all Argos games at SkyDome or Rogers Centre, depending on when the name change occurred. I have yet to see a Toronto FC game. My spin? Although BMO Field isn't a concert venue, the first and only concert that was held here was Genesis on September 7, 2007. I was there. It holds a special place in my heart. It was a fantastic concert. I don't know why it hasn't hosted more concerts. I was comfortable at this concert. Concession stands were everywhere. The prices were a bit expensive back then, but you expect that to be the case at any major entertainment event. The washrooms were clean and accessible. These days, I'm normally around the area to park. I remember seeing Erasure at Queen Elizabeth Theatre a few years back, which is across from BMO Field. I parked near gate 4. It was affordable and a fairly close walk over to the theatre on a soggy, rainy evening. I haven't seen any CFL games recently. I should, as I miss seeing all CFL action in a stadium. I'll need to give it a try at BMO Field in the upcoming Argos season. (127)

An old sports stadium that is owned by the city. I know that they open it up a lot for public use…read more(Ultimate Frisbee, fitness competitions, etc...), but I came as a spectator for a Wolfpack game. I can't speak to the pitch quality, locker rooms, etc... It is indeed quite old. If I was paying good money for a game here, I may rate it lower, but since I didn't, I could appreciate it for what it is. It's nice that there's no assigned seating, so you can go wherever you want - not that there's really a bad seat anyway since it's not terribly large. The Wolfpack were clever in using the open area behind each end zone for vendor stalls - which are almost all booze vendors. It's also in a great location. It may not speak to the quality of the venue itself, but location matters for the experience too. It's barely a couple blocks from Exhibition GO, right off King for the frequent streetcar, and they also set up a makeshift station for the Toronto bikeshare program. I also saw a couple parking lots with posted rates that looked reasonable and still had spots leading right up to game time. Lots of good pubs nearby too.

Meh. The stadium isn't very impressive. It reminds me of a high school stadium. Very basic concrete…read morebuilding with metal benches in the bleachers. The washrooms need a renovation. Stalls & toilets looking dated. There were only 4 stalls in the ladies room. For all the people that attend games at the stadium there should be more washrooms. There's always a lineup for the ladies. Food stand is pretty basic too. Fries, hot dogs, etc. Stadium food is usually expensive & not the greatest options. This stadium isn't any exception. I would love to see a stadium which does things differently. Is it possible to have a classy stadium? I think so. There must be one somewhere in the world. Anyway the stadium is blah but watching the rugby game was actually fun. Would like to see the games in an updated stadium as this one needs a reno & is looking very dated.

Fun family splurge, if a bit hokey. :)…read more - Parking was confusing - Bummed that the exterior wasn't shaped like a castle, like other locations (not a big deal, but you should know) - The two entrance lines should be clearly marked before the doors open for VIP/non-VIP. The red mat on the floor isn't obvious. - Frozen drinks at the lobby bar are surprisingly good/well-spiked (you can also get them alcohol-free for the kids) - Souvenir clothing items are decently priced - Be sure to see the horses when you first walk in. They're taken out of their stalls pretty quickly after you're inside. - Museum of torture got to be too much for me about 2/3 of the way through (I can be sensitive to graphic stuff, and made the mistake of reading all the placards). Had to abandon. - Condition of the restrooms (specifically the floors) was unforgivable. This was true of all restrooms, multiple times through the evening. - Couldn't follow the story line during the performance, but it didn't really matter. :) - Performers were excellent and COMMITTED, and our server (Kat) was wonderful. - Food was way better than expected! - Combat impressed even my 12 & 13 year olds. Sparks! Splinters! Awesome. - If you can't be silly, don't come. Let loose. Cheer! Boo! - I find dressage (making horses dance and bow) really unnatural and a bit upsetting. It feels forced and looks uncomfortable to me, so I never like those parts - and there are a lot. Just be aware. (And know that you may have to explain why they're whipping a horse to your young child.) - Overall we had an awesome time. We hooted and hollered and made memories. Thanks, Medieval Times!

First time coming here…read more Show was about 2 hours total. First hour or so was a bit boring and the second half was more entertaining with the knights fighting each other. It was all staged but still felt fun and good to do once. The food is included in the show and you shouldn't expect much. You get tomato soup, garlic bread, half chicken, potato, corn, dessert, and a drink. The chicken itself was pretty under-seasoned and very dry. The soup and bread were decent. We got tea at the end and it tasted like water. Overall it's a fun show to do and see once but don't expect good food

The arena itself is right in the heart of downtown, so the whole area around it already feels super alive before you even walk in. There's people everywhere, jerseys, food spots nearby, and just that pre-game energy that makes it so fun. Inside, it was packed but in a good way, like full energy, loud, exciting, everyone already hyped before tip-off. I had seats in the 300 level and honestly I don't even think that's a bad thing at all. The view from up there is actually really solid, you can see the whole court properly and the energy from the crowd feels even more spread out and intense. Service-wise, everything was pretty organized. It was busy, so lines and movement around the concourse can get a bit crowded at times, but nothing unexpected for a Raptors game night. Once you're settled in your seat though, it's smooth and you can just focus on the game. Overall, I'd 100% recommend going at least once if you're in Toronto. It's not just about basketball, it's the full experience: the crowd, the energy, the location, and just being part of that atmosphere. Even from the 300s, it still feels like a really good seat. Definitely one of those experiences that's way more fun in person than on TV.
