Centre Vidéotron

Best seats

The 18,000-seat NHL-calibre bowl gives good sightlines from both the main and upper concourse levels; lower-bowl sideline seats put you closest to the action, while upper-level seats are a cheaper way to enjoy one of the CHL's biggest crowds.

Parking

ExpoCité runs about 4,300 on-site spaces, with access via rue Soumande or from the east via Avenue du Colisée; pay the attendant by cash or card. ($10–15 CAD)

Getting there

The arena is at 250 boulevard Wilfrid-Hamel on the ExpoCité grounds in the Limoilou/Vanier area, a short drive from Old Québec.

Bar scene

Inside, the Club Bud lounge pours the Labatt line from doors until about an hour after the game. The Grand Marché de Québec next door stays open late on game nights, and Limoilou's 3e Avenue has walkable bistros.
