Home to the Edmonton Oilers and many concerts, the formerly known Northlands Coliseum, Edmonton Coliseum, and the Skyreach Centre is an older arena that provides great views for the fans.

Opened in 1974, the two-level complex feels like you are right on top of the action no matter where you sit. In addition to that, players consider Rexall to have the fastest ice, which makes games even more exciting.
