Insider tips

  • Concessions use cashier-less tap-to-pay checkouts, and your bank places a temporary hold of about $30 until the final total settles.
  • Only small bags and purses are allowed; no backpacks or oversized bags.
  • Doors usually open an hour before the event. There's no re-entry, even to smoke.
  • Tickets are mobile through the Ticketmaster or TD Coliseum app, and printing at the Box Office costs $5.
  • The building reopened in late 2025 after a full rebuild; the former FirstOntario Centre is now home to the AHL Hammers and PWHL Hamilton.
