I LOVE Rogers Place! Even the nosebleed seats aren't that bad! The seats are inclined in such a way that 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! read more

Good venue, easy to navigate, easy to grab food and drinks.... Lines move fast which is great. Friendly staff, and they did an excellent job having the UFC fights here finally! Crowd brought the energy and you felt the love for all the Canadian fighters. It was a great experience. My only complaint is regarding the homeless are able to wonder around the place once you leave the ticket entrance. I was approached twice by some mentally ill/transient people which made me very uncomfortable. I saw police & security but they didn't seem to escort anyone out. Once I waited for my Uber outside there were plenty more homeless hanging around the front drugged out of their minds. It was very concerning and I didn't feel safe waiting for my ride. It was the worst part of my night but thankfully I made it out safely. Not sure I would be back because of this. Great event though. read more

$12.50 for a 12oz can of Coors Lite. Seriously. $8.00 for 1 small slice of crappy Pizza 73 pepperoni. Missing 1/2 the cheese. Rogers Place is going to face a major food and beverage boycott. My friends and I are eating before and after the events. It's impossible to get dropped off in front of the arena. You must walk at least 1 block. The ped-way is warm, but you still have to walk quite a distance. read more

Best arena in North America. New and shiny. It's sound system can't be beat. I'd highly recommend sportsnet club for any oilers seats. With a buffet and access to washrooms limited to just 400 people. It never has a lineup. That in itself is worth the extra price! The seats are also by loge and offers the best views in the arena with some hard-core fans. Don't get drink row seats for oilers game. If anyone stands up. Good luck seeing anything. It's basically an obstructed view. For concerts. Get floor seats up to row 24 and u can wiggle your way to the stage for better standing seats than front row or any pit seats. I prefer parking in the ice district lot for safety. But for easy quick access out. The lot outside in the back has pretty convenient spots which let you out within minutes for an easy escape. Secrets out. Enjoy. read more

This is a review for the amazing staff at Rogers place, especially Jennifer H. She made sure both myself and my daughter had tge best experience as it was a first time for my daughter to a concert. Jennifer H. was very nice, friendly and helpful. read more

Went to the Brad Paisley concert; spent good money on platinum 3rd row tickets only to have the entire concert view blocked by the people standing up the entire time in front of us .... If this was Oilers game this wouldn't happen at all but it seems Roger's doesn't care about people during these events :( big fail ! read more

I am writing regarding your Buy One Get One offer (attached) offering two for one price on Heart tickets that was sent out on November 22, 2024. We purchased two tickets on April 21, 2024 for $310.40 from TicketMaster for the show that we expected to go to in November, 2024 for my wife's birthday, however the show was postponed until March 21, 2025. We contacted Roger's Place and spoke with Dante, then Michaela his manager in order to receive the Buy One Get One deal/refund on one of our tickets. No help. My wife was heartbroken. First by the postponement and then them offering but one get one but that they could do nothing to assist us with it. We were warned about dealing with Roger's Place. Buyer beware. read more

They don't have much to eat in the evening and they are super over priced you can get candy cheaper in the vending machine then here

The buffet at Studio 99 amazing food great selection and better service . Thank you Ryan and the amazing cooks there we will definitely be back read more

Wow...this is a fancy place! This was my 20th NHL arena and it's the newest one I have visited (still have to get to Las Vegas). Boy, is it fancy! I am not kidding this place is like a palace or a cathedral inside! Getting in reminded me a little of the TD Garden in Boston because there were a lot of escalators but then there was this big inside plaza where security was. It was very efficient getting in. The concourses are wide and there are a lot of food and beverage options. Obviously, Edmonton is a hockey town so the fans are very knowledgeable and I had some nice conversations with the people around me. There are lots of food and drinks options so getting whiskey was not a problem. Restrooms are plentiful and lines seem to move fast. Downtown arenas are the best because it's nice to be able to walk from your hotel to dinner, to the game and back without having to deal with parking or traffic or anything. This is a beautiful facility. read more

I've been here a few times. I really love that no matter where you sit you have a great view of the hockey game or really any event you are seeing. We saw Oiler vs Coyotes sadly oilers lost but it was a great time. Washrooms first miles and food and drinks available just about everywhere. I like this venue. We walked several blocks instead of being stuck in traffic downtown and that's why this place works. You can walk or take a cab or heck park downtown too. read more

Wow this building is really nice. It so modern and high tech. Only thing is have to find a chance to watch a game or concert here. I just walked in to check out the place. Very nice venue in downtown. I will update my review once I get a chance to watch a game or concert inside. read more

Access to this new facility is terrible, not enough entrances nor reasonable parking! I am sure access and parking will improve as there is still tons of construction happening all around the place but so far not very good. It is hard to tell where the doors are and where it may lead you. The LRT station is nice though, stops right behind it with barely a walk. The inside itself is quite impressive though. It is huge and tons of people everywhere during their events. The lineup to get in gets lengthy but usually goes quickly. Once your ticket has been scanned, you are not allowed to get back in if you leave. There are many food outlets although they serve mainly the same items like Pizza 73, hamburgers, hotdogs, fries and nachos but it is very pricey and not worth your money. We tried the nachos with meat for $12 and it was enough for two people but very messy, you must eat it with a fork! They also have staff selling pop, popcorn, etc. on the floor and in the seating areas. The scoreboard is very large and is great for hockey games. The sound is excellent for any concerts, the seats are comfy however, they also offer seats along the back of the last row on the main level. These seats are chairs with a "table" where you can place your food or drinks or just rest your arms. The bad thing about these chairs is that it is very easy to kick the back of the seat in front of you. Or worse, it is a kid who is swinging her legs constantly! Be aware of this when picking your seat. You would think the washrooms would accommodate the amount of people this place could hold but expect a waiting line unless you do not wait until an intermission. Overall it is a nice place and something Edmonton needs! read more

Alright, I have waited a long time for this rant. I am on a bit of a roll today, so here goes... Anyone who thinks that Edmonton got a great new arena simply hasn't seen much outside of Edmonton. That is pure fact. What we received after years of Katz playing hardball with the city and province is a paint by numbers, half assed attempt of putting out something nice for the least amount of money possible. Corners were cut EVERYWHERE in this build, and it is evident when you see the competition. First off my pedigree on this topic to show I have a bit of an idea what I speak of. Sports travel is my hobby. And yes, it's an expensive hobby. As of this writing I have been to 18 NHL arenas, 18 NFL stadiums, 14 MLB stadiums, 22 NCAA college football venues, 8 CFL stadiums, and 5 NBA arenas. I have seen the newest and oldest facilities in many sports and find the appeal and charm in most. I have also been to the two NHL arenas that came after we moved into Rogers Place a few years back... T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas and Little Caesars Arena in Detroit. Both are nicer than Rogers Place, but I swear by the fact that Detroit got 50 times the arena we did. Mike Illitch spared no expense building an arena for Red Wings fans. Our nut job owner cut corners at every turn and screwed over local contractors wherever possible (don't believe that? Ask around). I have been to Rogers Place many times now... many Oilers and Oil Kings games. I have sat pretty much everywhere at this point, upper bowl, lower bowl, loge seating,drink rail seating, Club Access seats, Sportsnet Club seats. So lets list off all the awful going on in the barn we folks here in Edmonton seem to think is so awesome. - the food is awful. The selection, the quality, the price. All awful. Disgraceful when you see the offering at other arenas and stadiums. The selection was actually better at Rexall Place , where you could at least get a Starbucks Coffee or herbal tea. Here you get old, gas station quality coffee or Red Rose Tea (the only person I ever knew that drank Red Rose Tea was my Baba, I seriously had no clue they still sold it) from the same spot you buy your $7 crappy hot dog. - the lack of an adequate amount of bathrooms has been well documented and doesn't need to be beat to death here. You are the Oilers. You know that even at $13 you are going to sell thousands of crappy draft beers each night, more on weekends. So why not have more bathrooms? Because those cost money. And Katz wasn't interested in spending more money than needed for his fan base. - the differential on concourse width between lower concourse and upper concourse. The main concourse is wide and spacious (almost seems big enough in many areas to add more bathrooms?) while the upper bowl where us cretins only paying $85 for a ticket are shoulder to shoulder trying to squeeze through to get to our seats. Then they put a nacho or beer stand across from a Team Store and everything bottlenecks and the human herd comes to a standstill. But at least Katz is making more money there. - the two "worlds longest escalators" going to the top level. Again, no one her gets shafted more than the second class citizens sitting in the upper bowl. How about two more escalators so I don't have to wait ten minutes to get on the escalator when it's busy? Oh yeah, those cost money. And if you have been there when one breaks down, thats extra special. The old dude giving high fives as you step on is awesome though... I love that guy. - parking is crap, just like Commonwealth Stadium, but that is more a City of Edmonton thing than Rogers Place. - how is it even legal how steep the seating in the upper bowl is? How has there not been a drunk fall and break his neck yet? Dead sober I have wonky knees trying to navigate that incline. - selling beers in Ford Hall for $5 to try to get people there instead of one of the cool pubs in the area, then jacking that to over double the price once you are trapped inside past security is just another fine example of this outfit squeezing you for everything they can take. - speaking of beer, awesome selection of Molson products (that's called sarcasm) . Just another example of Katz and his team pimping to the highest bidder (see the concessions in my first point) and not being concerned with actually giving the fans some selection. Every other new stadium or arena I can think of has major breweries and local and regional craft selections. Not here. Drink your Coors Light for $12.75 and be quiet. - don't get me started on the on ice product and ownership/ management. But I continue to pay good money to see this garbage year after year, so who's the fool in this point? - finally, what is up with the brass band in Super Mario Brothers costumes? Someone thought people would say "oh look, that is cool"? Awful. My rant is over. Heading to Ticketmaster now to buy tickets for an Oilers game in January. read more

I like Rogers Place, it looks great and is a fantastic addition to downtown Edmonton. We always point it out to visitors to the city and stop to take a look (or selfie) at the statue of Wayne Gretzky. I've been for large concerts including when Rod Steward was in town. They can hold a huge amount of people and I've never had a bad view. The bar is pricy but we all know that so I felt prepared for that. What I wasn't prepared for during an Oilers game was the amazing hot dog stand. I wish I could remember what it was called but the toppings were upscale. It made a nice change to the very basic snacks you used to get at games. It's an arena sure, but it's also a sign of the city and how it's changing and developing. I'm excited for the whole Ice District to be completed in the next few years. read more

Rogers Place is impressive with it's large scoreboard, Ford Hall, free wifi, railing, and newness of seats that have padding and cup holders (if you're in the lower bowl). Having seen 2 concerts here, it's not as fabulous as I was hoping. For the first concert, we had tickets in the lower bowl and although it was a good view of the stage, I felt claustrophobic. The seats around us were all occupied and the person next to me occupied some of my space and although he was nice and friendly, I felt uncomfortable. We noticed there were lots of seats in the upper bowl and decided to move before the show started (and it was nice we won tickets so all free). I think the man next to me was happy so he could use the cup holder for his second beer. We found a section with few seats occupied and sat a few rows up from the lowest row. The steps seem more steep so it's good they have the railing for those who have had one too many beverages. We noticed there were no cup holders up here, so it pays to have the lower bowl seats. The view of the stage was alright from the higher and steeper seat. For the second show, we had tickets in the upper bowl and after going through security, they informed us we would need to change our tickets. The whole upper bowl was closed off so they gave us tickets for row 5. The section we were in wasn't a walk straight down to our seats but there wasn't a turn left and then come back right down the stairs. This time the seating felt more comfortable and not so enclosed as my first visit. The aspects of the arena that I'm not a fan of is that ticket holders for the floor can walk up and down the stairs for the lower bowl sections and it can get quite congested after a show. Although the concourse is wider, it can get quite busy after the show. Instead of waiting for the escalator, we went down the stairs all the way down and it was empty. The lines to go through security into the arena are inconsistent with how quickly they move. The ones in the middle seem to go faster as we moved to that line from one on the outer edges where people were barley moving. Certain women's washrooms were lined up even though both shows were less than 70% occupied so I could only imagine for a sold out show. I would walk to the next washroom and find no line. read more

A few things...it caters to some but doesn't cater to all...my summery of Roger's Place. I have been here a number of times...two concerts...and two hockey games.....here is my thoughts If you are an able bodied person with a lot of money you will love this place! Trendy, and high end this is the place to look your best and be seen. High end dining, casino, and concert hall are all at your fingertips. So what if you pay $12 bucks for a cheapo beer that tastes like it has been sitting out overnight and a $8.50 for a thin hamburger...that is not what you are there for. And, truth be told, I really love Atlas the one time I was there, and I have heard many good things from the other dining places in the arena. However if you happen to have no money and are taking your kids to a hockey game (one being disabled) good luck to you! No disabled parking....no help getting your disabled kid to her sit, and no where to store your adapted stroller. Great! This sounds like quality family time! We could try to manage our seats to wherever they are and then take our stroller back to the coat check and then manage your kid back down the escalator (good luck finding the $@$!&*^ elevator) . And hope to God (or whoever you believe in) that your kiddo does not need a bathroom because you need a treasure map for that! Why in the world would the city pay all this money for this area and not put in enough bathrooms. All in all I will go there if I am given tickets for an event at a great discount, or if I don't have my disabled kid in tow and I really love who is performing then I will consider it....otherwise I will save my money to see the performer somewhere else...anywhere else...than Roger's Place read more

Wow! Came here tonight for the first show - Keith Urban. The sound was phenomenal - truly! The building itself is beautiful and grand but a few things surprised me: The elevators and bathrooms had garbage and schmuck on the ground. The restaurants/food options were really lacking and overpriced. $14 for concert nachos in a bowl? Really!?! Beer was $10+ And I never found a Starbucks or coffee joint. I wish they had options like the Jugo Juice stand at the Saddledome in Calgary. The bars on the main concourse are cute but the food/grills are across from them with lines on both side so you have to say excuse me, excuse me, excuse me as you cut through more than a hundred people in line just to get through the concourse. The view from 218 where we sat was blocked by railings, speakers, etc. 218 here is like 300 at Rexall (think nosebleeds). The lower bowl (100s) is huge and I'm stoked to sit there tomorrow night for Dolly Parton. There is a PCL Loge lounge level with swanky seating and tables that you can purchase as season tix or if a season ticket holder decides not to buy their table for any given concert. The staff were friendly and ample tonight. Merch was available for purchase outside security, main concourse, and on the top level (200's) - pretty cool and no lines upstairs. 2 thumbs way up for having water fountains! I'm definitely looking forward to coming here again but glad we had dinner beforehand! read more

I've had pretty decent experiences at Roger's Place. Been there for concerts, hockey and talks (Michelle Obama). Every seat I've sat in has had clear lines to whatever I'm watching. The sound is good. Food costs what you would expect... alchohol. Comparable to other stadiums. Accessibility hasn't been an issue or parking. The only downfall is the entrance/exit... poorly planned. A pain to get out of. read more

Came for the first Edmonton Oiler exhibition game. Once the surrounding construction is done I think this will be a wonderful place to come to and it will be an event. Now this is just another, rather nice arena. Well designed for watching hockey. The 46' x 46' screen is amazing. Sound is great. The seats are still narrow and I am slim! Hard to get in and out of. The leg room is not great. There is a cup holder. There is suppose to be 1200 TVs throughout the arena. There was one TV in the bathroom in a poor location and it was not working. Prices for food and drink are high. If you like walking, parking is fine, because there is tons of parking. Just need to walk forever. Which I do like to walk. They have a designated driver program. What a great idea. Sign in as a designated driver (with drivers license etc) and you get a coupon for a free non-alcoholic drink. Great idea. read more

Went here and watched the Edmonton Oilers play the Arizona Coyotes! What a beautiful new stadium! The elevator is definitely a stairway to heaven so don't look behind you when you are going up it! The only complaint I would have about the stadium is how expensive food and drinks are! $12 to $15 for an alcoholic drink! read more

Called the "library" for a reason...Can't believe how quiet this place is during a game. Overall: 3 stars Food/concessions: 3 stars Service (tickets/concessions/stores): 3 stars Game experience: 2 stars Will I be back: Absolutely. Come to see the team, not the arena. Unfortunately for the team, the arena experience isn't all that great. i should preface this by saying that I'm not a native Edmontonian. I became an oilers fan as a kid (in Ontario) in the early 80s, because of Gretzky and have stayed loyal ever since. Food: Maybe it's because I was on the cheap seats level, but i was surprised at how little variety there was in options. note: I didn't go downstairs and check out their offerings, but even still...other arenas ive been to have had a variety of options, from your typical hot dogs/nachos/etc, to more "gourmet" burgers, etc. Maybe I missed it, but i didn't see such options. service: nothing memorable, nothing great or bad. meh. Game Experience I was shocked at the arena's quiet atmosphere. Is this a function of the arena or the fans? I think arena. Even the game pause distractions were forgettable. Will i be back? Now that I have family in Edmonton, if I come visit during the season, I'll do my best to catch a game. Has zero to do with the arena and 100% to do with the oilers. read more

For most of my visits to Edmonton I've seen the Oilers (and other events) at the beloved 40-year-old Northlands Expo Centre. There was a lot of media foreplay for Rogers Place, and a lot of downtown construction disruption during the years the stadium rose out of the dust. It was all worth it. I love the downtown location -- mostly because it makes hitting nearby restaurants easy to visit coming and going -- and the architecture of the building pleases my esthetic tastes. Culinary tastes, though? Yes! Another win! There are a huge number of dining options, from the traditional pretzels, hot dogs, and hamburgers to local ethnic specialties including the belly-filling pierogi bowl. The alcohols? Many. From the beers and wines to pretty decent Caesars. Sold at a lot of places around the perimeter, which you really ought to walk before buying anything, to get the whole range of food and drinks into your head. Architecturally? Not too bad. Big, plentiful, and clean washrooms. I appreciate the signage to the sections and seats. The seats are comfy, and the views from the first row to halfway up are great. There's some major strangeness in how the crowds are compressed into a small flow on the way out, something that sets my emergency services alarms going, but I'm sure it won't be addressed until after something bad happens. That's my only off-note. Well, that and the strangeness with security allowing people out and not back during events, even when they have a ticket and hand-stamp. Reeks of forcing the inmates to eat the jail food. :-/ read more

Depeche Mode @Rogers. For concerts there is not a bad seat in the house. GO CLUB, if you can. The line ups are shorter. Possibly because the bar in this area is private. Beautiful arena. read more

ROGERS PLACE DISCRIMINATION AGAINST WOMEN AND THE SIZE OF THEIR PURSES: So tonight my daughter took my grandson to the Oil Kings game for the teddy bear toss, and he also was supposed to be a 'honor guard' when the anthem was being sung. At the doors, my daughter was told that her purse was too big and was denied entry unless she got rid of her purse, to put in her vehicle (she cabbed there) or call someone to pick it up from her, or forfeit it to them and never get it back. She called to say that they were coming back to due this, and also said that a lot of women were being turned away due to the size of their purses. As she was leaving she ran into another lady and her child heading to the doors, and let her know, so she offered to let my daughter put her purse in her vehicle as she was having to go put hers in her vehicle before entry, and at the end of the game returned it to my daughter. Nowhere on their tickets do they say anything about that. Supposedly they implemented this stupid 'rule' last year, but not sure why seeing as they were shut down due to covid. Maybe they should have someone there reimbursing all the women the cost of their tickets as they get turned away. read more

Having an arena downtown is a sign that a town is evolving into a city. A state of the art arena with it's own district of entertainment, living spaces, gambling, food and retail shops on the edge of downtown is a sign for a brighter future for Edmonton. It's a beautiful arena from the outside and it will attract top level musicians & acts to the city. Okay now to the drawbacks of this 'Ice District'... 1. A big cost to tax payers. 2. An extra tax to all businesses in the vicinity which is passed down to the consumer of course. 3. Expensive food & drink options in the arena. 4. Bad planning and execution of the escalators that get you to the upper bowl. Of course you can use stairs or elevators to get up there. 5. Small bathrooms shows poor foresight and planning. Didn't they visit every other arena in the continent to measure need? The long wait time will negatively impact the food and liquor sales. 6. Small upper bowl walkways that lead to congestion, frustration, and can lead to loss of sales for ownership. 7. Parking is less affordable compared to Rexall Place. 8. All street parking meters nearby have been extended to 10pm. This will be a net positive to the city but more so to the Katz group since they are making the most money off this building. read more

I attended my second concert on Friday night at Rogers and saw the Corey Hart & Glass Tiger show. First off, Corey Hart was better than I thought it would be. But I had really wanted to see Glass Tiger perform and was super stoked for the show. As a retired stage performer, I know what to look for in sound. And it was not up to par. I'm not the only one who has noticed this. We we were sitting close to the stage. Very close. The bass was way too loud and drowned out vocals. The bass was so loud it shook the seats. There was a camera placed right in front of us that partially blocked our view that we paid for. Come on guys, you're a top notch venue. For the prices charged for tickets - I expect nothing less than perfection. Bass is fine for techno or dance music. But pop music? Come on. It never needs to be that loud. And the smoke. Why on earth would you fill the stadium with the smoke before the show started? My eyes flared up instantly. We sat there for thirty minutes before the show tearing up in a smoke filled room. The stadium is indeed top notch - if you're rich. But there are design flaws. Trying to get out of Rogers is always a gong show. Give yourself plenty of time to get through the crowd. We also weren't allowed to use the stairs going into the floor area even though we were on row 2. We had to climb up all those stairs to exit the building? Come on. Common sense folks. Also, find a bathroom before exiting the your floor. Or hold your pee until you get home. I made the mistake of buying a $7 pop and luckily, we hailed a cab straight away. I'll stop there. I like the venue. But ... there is a reason I like the Winspear better. Advice for concert goers: try to get tickets in section 102. But sit up around rows 4-10. This will be one of the better views of the stage. And you'll be high enough you won't get blinded by the stage lights. And shop around for beer. Prices range from $11-16 per beer at different vendors for the same brand. Wth? I just don't even know. read more

Roger's Place is a new stadium in Edmonton. Besides hockey, of course, the area holds concerts and other exciting events. It's not the biggest arena I've ever been to, but I don't think there is a "bad seat" in the house. When I first got inside, I was surprised that there were so many food and drink options. As I was there for a hockey game, there were also lots of oilers gift shops where fans could buy hats and jerseys. There were even some large bobble heads of the players where you could take pictures. While the oilers/red wing game wasn't the most exciting hockey game ever, it was fun to experience it at Roger's Place. I'm actually glad it wasn't bigger because I wouldn't want to have to walk more than a minute or two from the car lot to the entrance in below freezing weather. read more

Very nice venue to enjoy any kind of event!!! Been there for so many concerts and I love it!!! And my favorite food is the YEG nachos!!! Usually doesn't matter where you sit but it depend of the event too, and now more artists wanna come to Edmonton because of these arena!!! So happy about that! read more

Went to my first game here recently and have to say it is a huge improvement over Rexall. I was a guest of a friend in his PCL Loge table seats, so my review and rating could change when I go to other games in the more cheap seat areas in Feb haha. But I had no issues with lineups in the washroom, which was my fear, since once I start drinking the seal is broken haha. Also no lineups at the bar, though we also got table service which is nice. Only thing is the cost, so you may have to take out a loan if you plan on drinking it up here. All 4 of us each took turns to buy a round...so spent about $45 for 4 draft beers. Didn't even bother to buy any food, saw a tray of cookies at one table beside us for about $24! So for one night is was nice to sit in the premium area, so when I go back to the "common" area next month will see how it is. Go Oilers go! read more

I gotta admit that Rogers Place is a very pretty building. Granted, we are here for the inaugural concert (that being the Keith Urban Ripcord tour) so there's bound to be glitches and hiccups for opening night. There was a miscommunication regarding which way the escalators are supposed to go which made it difficult to go from floor to floor. Leaving the building might prove to be interesting. I was under the impression that the arena was connected to the LRT. We were told to get off at Bay Station and walk 2 blocks to the arena, which was fine. It wasn't until we got to Rogers that we discovered that apparently there is a pedway connecting to the LRT. We'll try to check it out on the way out. The food concessions are limited (no franchises that we found except for Pizza 73) but you can order a $10/20oz beer from pretty much all of them. I'll still give it 4 stars and give them the benefit of the doubt for working the bugs out. Can't wait for tomorrow night and the Dolly Parton concert! read more

After waiting so long for this place to open it definitely aesthetically lives up to the hype. I love that it's in the middle of DT. That's where it belongs. This is a really beautiful building. The arena itself is phenomenal. I seriously felt like I was in a video game. The seating is amazing, you do not have to struggle to see the game it all. It looks dope.

It took me a couple years to finally get to Rogers Place, but I can tell you that once I got here, I was extremely impressed with our new(ish) arena. M and I came here for a concert, and I couldn't get over how fast security got us through their line ups. Once inside, it was finally time for us to get to explore the space a little bit more. There is such grandeur to this place, with large halls, comfortable seating, and enough bars and one-off liquor salespeople to ensure that everyone can get a good buzz on. Not to mention there are enough bathrooms in this place that everyone could probably go at the same time! I can't give it full 5 stars because there were a few things that bring down the rating: First, the concession stands are SO expensive! Who wants to pay almost $6 for a bottle of water that you can't even drink IN the bottle?! They have to pour it into a cup for you. It seems kind of strange to me... Customer service doesn't seem to be a huge factor here. Anyone that I had conversations with seemed disinterested in being there or didn't even know what customer service was. It's unfortunate when people are the main factor of your business and you have no time for them. I hope that they start to look at the negative reviews that are being left for them and maybe put some changes in place. read more

Good overall experiences, the price hikes for the last 2 season have been fairly excessive and don't really make sense based on the original projection. Hopping live hockey can be back soon read more

Love the new stadium!! So beautifully finished. Even though we had seats far back and high up we. Oils still see perfectly and still felt part of it!! What I love most is the excitement and uplift it brings to Edmonton downtown. The only reason I'm not giving it a 5 star rating is the prices of food drinks and parking is OTT, but I will definitely be back!! read more
