I LOVE Rogers Place! Even the nosebleed seats aren't that bad! The seats are inclined in such a way…read morethat the people in front of you don't obstruct your view. It's great when you don't have to keep shifting in your chair to see whatever you're trying to watch. Entering and exiting the building is pretty straightforward. They have stairs, escalators and elevators. Just remember you will need to get through security when you come in for events. The different seating sections are labelled clearly. There are plenty of staff available to assist you. Food concession stands are everywhere. Washrooms are relatively easy to find. I appreciate that this venue is located in downtown Edmonton. I know that some people have differing opinions about this but I personally like the energy and vibe this venue brings to our city. It's a cool looking building from the outside and inside. A variety of different events are held here, from sporting events to concerts. It's probably best known as the home arena of the Edmonton Oilers! This amazing venue brings our community together. It's a place where we can make and share lots of wonderful memories!

Can you believe this was my first time at Foote Field? It wasn't even for a U of A game, either!…read more My second FC game, and my first time at Foote. TIckets were cheaper here than at Commonwealth, and it's because the venue isn't as nice. But it gets the job done - lots of seating, a big open grass space, plus they were selling pop and drinks, and hot dogs. Unfortunately, the wind-pocalypse hit in the first half and we booked it out of there before it got any worse. Because it's such an open venue, and it's raised up from the ground, you really feel the wind or sunshine or whatever weather you happen to be receiving at the moment. But the game was fun, the drinks kept us warm(ish), the crowd was enthusiastic, and Foote Field did its job.

My experience with Foote Field is based solely on attendance at FC Edmonton games…read more I guess this is a multi-purpose field for U of A students, and is definitely not soccer specific. This could be confusing as there are white, red, and blue lines on the field of play. There are two sections of seating; reserved on the west side and general admission on the east. Reserved is just regular seats and the GA side is raised up high school style bleachers. Trust me when I say the reserved side is much more comfortable, especially when there is adverse weather, like wind, or even when it's very sunny. There are actual bathrooms and concession counters on the west side, whereas on the east side there are four porta-potties and a Fat Franks stand (which is sweet), and dudes selling beer essentially out of an ice bucket. The GA side is also kind of up a hill a little bit, so while it doesn't seem like it when you're sitting there, you're a bit of a distance from the field compared to being on the other side. The field has your regular electronic scoreboard, but no huge TV for replays. I still find myself looking up for one, even though I know it's not there! You pick up your pre-bought tickets at the will call counter, or you can get tickets the day of. The box office isn't open on a regular basis as I understand it. There is tons of parking available and the LRT stops right beside the field. I suppose it will do for now, but Edmonton really needs a soccer specific stadium.

The real name for this place is the Universiade Pavilion - but it's, more appropriately, called the…read moreButterdome by everyone. For obvious reasons. It's shaped as a giant block and painted a golden yellow. When I moved here, I saw it from a distance and thought it was an unfinished building with exposed inner walls. I always thought it looked like the inside of a Crunchie chocolate bar, a giant block of sponge toffee. Garish and giant as it is, it's a landmark, which is a good thing on a big campus, so many people have a love-hate relationship to it. It's right next to the sports hub of the university and it is used for big events, like concerts, sports meets, craft sales and also had an indoor climbing gym which is open to the public as well. I've been there on more than one occasion and it's a great place for a concert or just to use as a landmark when giving directions. Hard to miss a big block of butter...

The reasons I've been in this building have varied so very much over the years. I've been here for…read morethe Butterdome Craft Sale (both spring and Christmas editions) many times over the years and that has been wonderful -- well run and a great venue! I've been here to write exams over the years of my various degrees -- stressful and the desks aren't amazing either but this is a good use of the space. I've been here for at least one concert and it was a neat venue for this party! I've also really enjoyed watching/participating in sports activities here -- which is really the reason that the building exists, it having been constructed for the 1983 Universiade if I remember correctly. This is an essential facility for a University of this size. And while I do not visit it terribly frequently I think that it is still well used and in good shape for hosting the many events and activities that it does over the years!

I've been here over the years for Trappers games and more recently an Edmonton Prospects game. I've also been here for a party during the World's Masters Games (at which I was volunteering) and the field is a really neat concert venue as a result. It's perhaps not as big as a bigger ballpark but it is certainly very useable and useful. Having sat in box seats as well as in the regular stands I can appreciate both. The field is parking and transit accessible. I like to just walk down to it from downtown as it's a nice walk. While I'm not a huge fan of baseball, I will admit that one's enjoyment of a game here really has more to do with who one is with than the game itself for the most part. I think that the more dated aspects of the park would become renewed if we again had a higher league ball team playing here.

We love to go to games here and appreciate that seats are so inexpensive!…read more This is a fun alternative date night or weekend spot. On Canada Day, you can stay past the game to watch the fireworks. There is a concert .in between the two events. The food here is okay. It has switched to Remax field and I think that this is why the menu changed as well. There are fewer choices than before. I want to try to nacho poutine next time I am there. There are a variety of seats to choose from including lower bowl where you sit on field level, balcony seats, nose bleeds, and bleachers. I believe the field seats have a private bar and you can order your food instead of standing in line. We go to games as often as we can

Pretty good event space holds tons of people. The staff are all friendly which is nice…read more Attended the NHL concerts here and I was pleasantly surprised how good these events were. Ice district was awesome for checking security to make us all safe. I didn't like how they didn't have roaming bartenders to serve the front row like they do at most outdoor concerts. Or even come around for water. This really made the concert experience less fun for sure. Loved how I could get up close to front row for free and security made sure there was no pushing or anything like that. Vibes are good. People friendly and nobody was getting into eachother space at all. People are quite respectful

But for a afternoon soccer match, it's A-OK - Just make sure to park right in the lot and not a block or two away. The stadium is sponsored by Molson's so you can drink beer, and choose from Canadian, Coors, Rickard' Red and I believe cans of Corona. They have a hot-dog stand that's pretty darn good dogs. The washrooms seem to always be clean and there are lots of staff/volunteers around so you can feel safe bringing the kids. The blue bleachers have new plastic seating that is just as good as any major league seats. Here's my seating tips: If it's Spring or Fall the East bleachers will keep you warmer (ie sun on you much longer then the West Bleachers) for evening games. But, there are only washrooms located on the West side of the bleachers. In the height of summer the West side will provide a bit of needed shade - best bet, West bleachers! And don't forget to cheer!

I am so surprised that there is no review for Gallagher Park yet!…read more This park was named after a former City Councillor and Edmonton's 3rd Mayor, Cornelius Gallagher (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cornelius_Gallagher_(Canadian_politician)) Gallagher Park is most noticeably famous for hosting the Folk Music Festival in the summer and as one of the best toboggan hills in the city during the winter. It is an ideal hill for both uses. You have great views of the Folk Music Festival main stage from any point on the hill because of its incline. It is a huge area too so it fits a lot of people for that event. There is also a great little playground and spray park located at the bottom of the hill by the Community League hall. Another great thing about this hill is that is a great vantage point for downtown Edmonton. You can get great pictures here year round!
