Scotiabank Arena

Best seats

Lower bowl sections 114–120 (centre ice, bench side). Golds are pricey; 300-level corners are the value play.

Parking

No arena lot — use Green P at Union or the ACC/Scotiabank garages. Cheaper municipal lots south of the Gardiner Expressway; street parking is scarce. ($25–40 (garages) · ~$15 further out CAD)

Getting there

Union Station is a 5-min covered walk via the SkyWalk. Take the GO/TTC and skip parking entirely.

Bar scene

Maple Leaf Square / the 'MLSE district' right outside is packed with sports bars and patios; the Financial District and King West (upscale cocktail bars, breweries) are a short walk/streetcar away.

Pre-game bars

• Wayne Gretzky's — Themed, patio, 2-min walk — busy but iconic.
• Real Sports Bar & Grill — 39-ft screen, the definitive pre-game spot next door.
• The Loose Moose — Bigger groups, solid taps, books up fast.

Concession prices (CAD, approx)

• Domestic beer (473ml)$13–15
• Hot dog$8
• Poutine$12

Insider tips
