Abbotsford Heat Hockey Ltd Review

Small venue but have seen a couple shows no bad seats staff always super friendly and so helpful

Decent concert venue, but the ambiance sucks for more intimate style shows, like theatre or small performances.

There is an ok selection of food and drink, although not inexpensive.

Location is ok, although on site parking at the university is overpriced and parking in pop up lots or nearby businesses can sometimes be tricky. Be sure to give yourself lots of time to find parking and then walk.

Sometimes, you need more wild hillbilly action, and shooooo-doggy did they nail it. That gnarly soil was just too soft from them thick mud tearing, dirt flinging tires. This was the ruttiest, most technical course any of these riders have had the sweet pleasure of riding before. Thanks for the show gents, and the sign girl that couldn't figure out the sign!

Easy access. Great parking and every seat is a good view! Definitely recommend!

Great venue, most seats had a good view and great sound also!

Awesome...phenominal concert with Chris Tomlin. I'd go again. Woohoo!!!

Fun night at Weird Al. The venue has a great selection of snacks and drinks. Ushering staff was friendly and the door entrance was smooth. Washrooms we're cleaned and there were plenty enough that you didn't have to wait. Would gladly come here again for an event. Re Weird Al. Fun set with great sound. I thought there was great clarity in the PA. Light show was great to go with the songs as well as the costume changes and 41 piece orchestra. Lovely evening and venue. Thanks!

It's such a nice size, all seats for a concert are great!!

A good litl place for concerts! They got toilets, beverages and food so no need to worry about those things. The lines are slow but if you arrive early you can get a drink n sit before the show starts. Paelrking is plentifull and cheap! Enjoy the show!!

Was there for the Jeff Dunham show. Great venue and place to see that type of show

Very nice Abbotsford Center. Will come again. Thank you Abbotsford Center for hosting Jeff Dunham. Had a great time. We came from Nanaimo, BC to see him.

Lots of seating. No issues getting into the venue.. great concert!! Seen many concerts here and will keep coming here. Friendly and helpful staff as well

Food and beverage service needs to be more efficient. Other than that....had a great night.

Saw a show there. It was easy to navigate through. As at any arena needs more bathrooms. Thing they could actually improve on is the number of people working concession. There was a rather short line at the one I went to but it took for ever to get through because they only had two people working the front. Plus the young employees didn't know how to make change.:/ I had gone to another one earlier staffed by older people, and three working the front with a longer line and got through at twice the speed. They could also put in a water bottle filling station that would be really nice. Make sure you bring a full one or be prepared to spend 3.50 on one because the fountain is awkward to fill, and doesnt taste great.

Went for grandson university grad lots of help for seating and questions big plus parking meters were covered

Awful traffic and parking management. Plan to spend at least half hour parking and half hour to leave for a busy event.

Well run, especially compared to the other Cirque venue I attended downtown, and much better parking than BC place. It's much smaller, though.

Great place to "get er done" nice venue for a concert. Park at the church. Save 7 bucks and avoid the traffic getting out.

Good venue for concerts, but I think they need more concession stands.

Great venue always a good seat how ever when. It comes to parking be aware of where your parking you could pay more then 10 dollars when if you walk for 3 minutes to the other parking lot it's half the price or if you don't mind a 10 minute walk you can find free parking in the surrounding areas. They also need to lower their cost of food and beverage it's over priced.

2 things... 1, the floor seats and 2, the traffic leaving. The floor seats are extremely uncomfortable and close together. Unfortunately my wife and I were unlucky enough to have purchased floor seating. We were seated between 2 obese persons. The seats are uncomfortable on thier own being cheap fold out chairs, but tying them together? Are you kidding? Paying a premium to sit on a fold out chair, pressed up against a fat guy is not my idea of a good time.
Leaving the Joe Rogan show on Friday Aug 24, 2018 was an absolute nightmare. We sat in bumper to bumper traffic for 40 minutes just trying to get out. There were no traffic attendants. Is should possible to direct multiple cars through the 4 ways, until they reach the roads with regular traffic lights.
I'll certainly avoid this event center in the future as a result of this brutal inconvenience.

saw offspring and sublime there was a good show its a nice midsized stadium and there are no bad seats cause of this

Great place to watch a concert. Wonderful acoustics. Best to park on the street.

Awesome venue with an incredibly helpful staff. Large venue that brings in great concerts.

Buffet dinner and a drink before the show, perfect combination!

Private luxury suite well worth it. Customer service was outstanding

Great place to have the Jehovah Witness convention!!!! Thank you ..

Nice facility. Parking can be a challenge if you're not there early...

It was totally amazing. Been there many times and it has been set up differently every time and is amazing every time. Packed and different. You will not be disappointed in the sound quality and the show if you go to a artist good at stage presence.

Awesome local venue! Free parking around the corner at the Park and Ride (less than 5 mine walk). Don't recommend Finnegan's on an event night as everyone goes there and it's very busy

Seen Hedley here it was awesome butt I feel like the seats were to far away from stage and they let the seats on the sides go to far back could see the people sitting there had cords in front of them and etc. Everything else was great though lots of food and drink options! Heads up no in and outs so if your a smoker, smoke before entering! Learned the hard way!

Everything except cold popcorn right at the beginning of doors opening is great!

Concert was great but the drink and bathroom lineups were ridiculously long.

Good venue. It's exactly the same format as so many stadiums these days. Not too big, and all the seats are good. The same predictable concessions.

Lots of folks selling affordable parking close by.

Leona I don't work there but for future reference that is for parking in the vip section. ..... there's piles of parking avail in all the surrounding lots and area that u just pay for at the parking meters located outside or inside the building ....all u need is your stall number ....

Great place awesome service only complaint is parking and the roads afterwards.

We saw the Skillet concert last night and my family had a great time. The concession food portions were good and the stage set up was perfect. Even though we were in an arena, it felt like a more intimate concert the way they had set it up. Everyone working there had smiles and something positive to say. The concert was excellent, great sound and mixing. It was a great way to spend the Family Day weekend, Saturday night!

This is a really great venue for concerts because there are no bad seats at all. Food and beverages are also reasonably priced but unfortunately there are not nearly enough stands so you have to wait 30-45 mins in a line up to even purchase a beverage.

Great place for concerts.... Not a bad Seat in the house. Would give a five star but not enough parking for sold out events. The new pedestrian bridge is helpful.

Foreigner was fantastic and nice opener Honeymoon Suite

Great venue for a concert. The view of the stage was great, the lines for concessions were long though, and the acoustics varied depending on the sound engineer.

Big arena. The seats are kinda hard but overall, not bad. Bring a cushion if event security will let you.

Other than the long lineups (like most stadiums) for merch and or food/drinks... never had a bad time.

I don t think I would ever go to this venue again. They do not understand how to run anything! Beer line ups were almost an hour. Food line ups were 30 min to order then another 30 min to wait! Absolutely ridiculous! No comprehension of efficiency what so ever. That s not the worst part. Leaving the parking lot took about 40 min. Then by the time we got on the highway it was 1 hr. Poorly poorly mismanaged!

A very nice and new venue. With ample parking and state of the art features it's a real treat. However it is very far away and in the middle of no where almost. Also the seating capacity is only 7000. The chairs are folding plastic that are bolted to the floor, not the most comfy when watching any 2+ hour show. Vendors like most venues are way overpriced (no suprise).

Great venue, beer and food way over priced for the quality though.

Been here for WWE events a few times. Friendly staff and easy to find parking.

Great place for a concert! Judas Priest was awesome! Great people and great service!

The usual uncomfortable seating at these kinds of venues...

I love that the fraser valley has this facility right in our back yard. Lots of great bands and shows are rolling thru town and making a stop, its awesome. The acustics are not bad in this venue, and the parking is pretty reasonably priced.

Great small size venue for a concert. Very surprised at the selection of food and drinks available. Great site lines and good sound quality.

Excellent venue, decent parking nearby at the university and reasonable prices on the beer.

Food vendors were not ready. Still stocking while line got longer and longer, sold old popcorn etc.. Between shows washrooms were closed to customers leaving. The show was amazing though.

It's a good basic arena used for anything but arena stuff.

The centre was really cool, I had never been in something like that before. However the food was insanely expensive, $9 for a drink!

I managed to get to the page to buy tickets for the Theresa Caputo show, chose to pay the $10 for parking and when I went to check out and pay a note came up saying that the parking was all sold out. I don't know that area very well and don't know if there's street parking or not. Couldn't buy the tickets 'cause there's no parking - does this make any sense at all? Sorry Theresa, would've loved to come and see you.

I didn't see the concert but I was in the back and the music sounded good, and there was lots of lights

Decent small venue, huge lines at concession and good luck getting a cab after a concert.

Was very difficult to find parking when we went to see the joe rogan show. We arrived 15 mins early and took 45 mins to find parking and missed the first 30 mins of the show.

Parking is expensive but it's a very clean and well kept venue. Wish there were more events that went on here. Seems to have sort of died with the Abbotsford Heat left.

Beer lineups were really terrible - over a 1 hour wait to get a beer. Worst lineup at a stadium I have ever been in.

The experience of our concert was great. It seems as no seat would have been a bad seat.
The seats are for young smaller people. That was kind of squishy. The line ups were quick. Bathrooms were clean and kept clean. Parking was $10.00- machines out doors were credit card only and 2 machines inside were change and credit.
We would attend another concert here.

The lineups for merchandise or drinks was very long. I wouldn't buy food or booze as its way overpriced. $3.50 for a bottle of water....sure the venue needs to make money. Maybe some vending machines for those of us that just want something non alcoholic and don't want to wait in an hour long line.
Give yourself lots and lots of time as traffic getting to the venue is crazy as not enough parking at the site. Just give yourself extra time.

Great place to go for events like concerts, cirque du soleil etc. Easy to find parking. Small enough to find your way around. Close to the #1. Good sound. Not a bad seat in the place.

Great place. The parking line up are a little crazy. So get to the event early
