FanProof verdictConfirm Coliseum rather than Moda Center on your ticket, then compare the bowl chart and garage walk. Bring cashless payment, follow your event’s bag limit and check the GA-floor exception before carrying an empty bottle.

What do you need to know?
Getting inBag rules, screening and your event
Bags & entry
The current guide distinguishes non-basketball events (maximum 14 × 14 × 6 inches) from NBA/WNBA basketball (10 × 6 × 2 inches). Medical and children’s bags have screening exceptions; event-specific Know Before You Go instructions control. Paid bag check is described on the Commons; prohibited items cannot be checked.

Getting thereArrival timing, parking, transit and getting home
Localtime
When to arrive
Winterhawks regular-season doors normally open 60 minutes before the event; other event doors vary. The box office opens two hours before Rose Quarter events and is closed on non-event days. Allow time for cashless parking, screening and the walk from your garage.
Transit & the journey home
Use your ticket’s Coliseum entrance and the Rose Quarter campus map, rather than assuming Moda Center access points serve this building. MAX serves Rose Quarter Transit Center and Interstate/Rose Quarter; check TriMet’s current service. The owner places rideshare pickup across from Convention Center MAX station.
Confirm return service and last departures for your event’s finish time.
Parking
Parking At A Glance
Parking difficulty
Usually manageable
- What to do
- Campus parking is cashless: bring a card or mobile payment and check event-specific prepaid options and rates. Garages generally open about two hours before events. The currently linked campus map identifies West, East, Garden and Annex garages; its older filename does not establish current prices.
- Best option
- Compare the garage and Coliseum walking route before reserving. West/East clearance is 8 ft 2 in; Garden/Annex is 6 ft 8 in. Accessible parking is available in campus garages with elevators, but the Garden P3 direct arena entrance described elsewhere serves Moda Center.
- Avoid
- Do not assume the Lloyd-area off-site parking advertised for Blazers home games applies to Coliseum hockey. Arrange oversized parking in Benton or Aegean River lots in advance with parking@trailblazers.com. Confirm the current pickup location and post-event route.

Seats & views
Accessibility
Arrange accessible seating and the route to your specific Coliseum entrance before purchase. Complimentary wheelchair escorts use 503-797-9650 on show days, answered from 30 minutes before doors. Assistive listening devices and sensory bags are available, but owner pages disagree on Guest Services entry labels: ask staff for the current desk. The dedicated sensory room described on the site is at Moda Center, not the Coliseum.

Inside the venuePayment, water and the atmosphere
Payment
The Coliseum is cash-free: credit, debit, prepaid cards and Apple Pay are accepted. Cash-to-card kiosks are listed at Coliseum Entry B and the box-office lobby; conversion is fee-free, with $1–$500 per non-reloadable card. Keep the receipt and card for remaining funds.
Water & drinks
Empty non-glass water bottles up to 32 oz are allowed except on GA floors. Water fountains are listed in the Coliseum; the guide’s numbered refill stations are at Moda Center and are not Coliseum locations. Outside beverages remain prohibited apart from arranged exceptions, and there is no re-entry.
The experience
- Best for: Portland Winterhawks hockey and Coliseum events. Use the owner’s numbered bowl chart, campus parking map and real fan seat photos. Moda Center is a separate neighboring arena; check that your ticket actually names Veterans Memorial Coliseum.
- Watch out for: For non-basketball events, the current owner guide limits bags to 14 × 14 × 6 inches; NBA/WNBA basketball uses 10 × 6 × 2 inches. Event notices may tighten limits. Empty non-glass bottles up to 32 oz are allowed except on GA floors; no re-entry is permitted.
Why It Works
- ✓No flash cameras allowed inside. No audio or video recording devices allowed inside. No smoking inside the building. Bags and full-length umbrellas are not allowed in the arena. Exclusions apply for medical bags, children's bags and clutches 5X8"" or smaller.
