Canada Life Place

Best seats

London has the OHL's biggest crowds (about 9,000 a game) and some of the highest prices: upper bowl from about $33, lower bowl about $55. Upper-bowl seats are the value pick, and the sightlines are good all around.

Parking

No dedicated arena garage. Use the many downtown lots, including the South Lot at Canada Life Place (100 King St, HONK zone 2178), Covent Garden Market Lot #31 (130 King St), and several Ridout, York and Talbot St lots. ($15 CAD)

Getting there

99 Dundas St in downtown London, across from Covent Garden Market, between Ridout and Talbot. It's about 8 km north of Highway 401. LTC buses run along Ridout St.

Bar scene

One of the best pre-game scenes in the OHL. Pubs and restaurants are steps away around Covent Garden Market and King and Richmond streets, and The Talbot Bar & Grille inside the arena opens 2 hours before puck drop.

Pre-game bars

• The Talbot Bar & Grille — In-arena on the 200 level via Gate 6, open 2 hours before Knights games for any ticket holder. 7 Labatt drafts. Reservations recommended.
• Milos' Craft Beer Emporium — Craft beer bar a short walk from the arena.
• Waldo's on King — Steps from the arena near Covent Garden Market.
• The Squire — Pub near the arena on the Stadium Journey list.
