Inside the Venue At A Glance

01

Mixed

Arrival & transportation

The downtown grid spreads demand better than an arena mega-lot, but one-way streets and event pricing reward a preselected destination.

02

Mixed

Seat & section strategy

Hockey and football use the full bowl while concert production can close or obstruct an arena end; use the event map.

03

Positive

Event-day character

The distinctive downtown building pairs major-event scale with a compact central district rather than a suburban campus.
