Calgary Sports and Entertainment Corporation Reviews

Great place. Getting a little old now. Good for hockey games. Great for lacrosse games.

Took my son to see the Harlem Globetrotters at the Scotiabank Saddledome. The show was amazing. Parking was easy, junk food was top notch and the lines weren't bad at all.

Go Flames Go! Great arena love seeing the flames play here

Could use better washrooms but other than that I still enjoy the dome.

Nice arena to watch a game at. Every seat as a good viewing angle. Go Flames!

It's really a shame that Shane Keaton and so so many other poor counselors if you want to call them that, see fit 2 dispose of this beautiful building. Shame on you mr. Keaton and shame on you Mayer and city council you have done the city and absolute disservice!

Seen better days....not a bad facility, but gone are the days of it being world class....

Best beer in the world. Security can frig right off though

Quoted on installing a house sound system for Calgary Audio Visual in one of the lounges. It's an older building but I really enjoyed my tour around the building. Got to see some guy get slimed for a tv commercial and the hallway where hockey players are interviewed.

It is always fun and the staff are so welcoming and awesome

Always a good trip to the dome! Staff and service were pretty quick for the lacrosse game we went to. We had a very good time just hate the price for parking close!

We had a box suite for a corporate event. The food was alright at best, not a lot of options compared to other arenas I've been and if you don't drink alcohol as the DD nothing but coffee or soda, no espresso options like lattes, cappuccinos or etc. The game view was good no complaints there but no in suite private washroom and the big screen inside the unit was not very big. Compared to other arenas I've been this is dated so I don't blame them entirely, it needs an upgrade for sure. The staff were friendly and attentive, 5 stars to them.

Went to the Def Leppard concert and loved every minute of it.

The restaurant was fantastic.
Great evening with the Auto Finance team at Scotia Bank

Worst popcorn in the world, would not recommend it. Everything else is great.

Great times are always fun. Just wish the flames won when I watch

Amazing atmosphere, good food reasonably priced for a stadium. Needs more male toilets though... Loved all the prizes given out. Shame the flames lost... Maybe next time

Great!!! Watching a Hitman's Game. Kids had pizza, it was good but a little greasy

The Dome is a great place to watch a Calgary Flames Game and also food is good.

Parking was decent, interior of building is showing it's age

Staff were great. Very helpful.had never been here before and very good customer service.

Great facility for concerts and shows. Easy to get to via transit

Facility is showing its age and washrooms are ridiculous on game days. Leaving the venue is usually logjammed. Usually good events with pleasant staff and an improving food selection.

Needs better beer. Seriously. With all the great beer in this city it shouldn't be that hard to get better beer. Grrrr.

Great atmosphere even though the building is showing its age. Time to replace this iconic arena. Customer service is good but prices are astronomical.

I love the saddledome and am disappointed with the price of drinks and food

Really nice historical building. The only one that I know of where you can have a tour for free. Rick was our tour guide and he is really pationnated about the building, the history and the teams. There is not tour everyday and every hours so you have to look first, but it was a really nice experience. I highly recommend it!

Home of the Calgary Flames. When in the city, definitely try and attend a game. Great atmosphere.

Time to bring out the thermite, the ol saddle has had its day! Flames fan until I die but our city deserves a world class venue to attract better concert talent. Personally the no re-entry policy isn't helpful for the mood of the crowd. Bathroom lineups are terrible and it's just old, dingy and way past its time.

Overpriced, overcrowded, outdated. But man, nothing beats watching a flames game here

I love working at the Saddledome with all the awesome people and great fans and lots of fun

It's just what you think it will be. A big stone building that things happen inside. They don't let you take cameras inside, so that's gonna bother me forever.

The burgers at burgers and brew are amazing!! The test kitchen has something new each month as well :)

A few suggestions to help improve service:
Train security staff and Saddledome staff to give consistent and correct direction information.
Post easy-to-find maps.
Reduce price of drinks and food. Gouging customers is a real turn-off. Do not be surprised if you don't have return customers due to your exorbitant prices.

I've never had a bad time here. Although several improvements could be made. 9$ for a can of bud? Come on. The sound quality for concerts is horrendous, that's why most larger acts go to Edmonton instead, missed revenue opportunity.

Love going to the flames and roughneck games but hate the lack of washrooms . Can t wait till we get a new facility

Cant leave for smoke break and beers are stupidly over price extortion for being only major venue in city

We caught the Toronto Rapters game as part of their Canadian tour. While The saddledome wasn't the perfect venue for a basketball game, it was good overall.

Visited here while at stampede. Got to take a tour of the arena only as I have never seen a live game or event here. The arena is excellent as all seats look like they have a good view and appear very comfortable Food and drink are great and arena is awesome. We ate at the Sports Bar restaurant attached at the entrance. Would go back to this arena again for any venue or just for the restaurant.

Always a good time there. Had a "Big League Experience" and it was crazy fun

Great entertainment, super athletes , and a winning team Go Flames Go,
(Go Roughnecks! Too) sad to see this building go when the new building gets built, I think it should stay put .

Dated, but has lots of food options. Not very many 'bad' seats, sight lines are really good throughout.

Good game so far, 2-2 against the Habs. Had an awesome meal in the Iconic Platinum Club. Got to meet Lanny McDonald and even had my jersey signed. All in all a great evening!

Iconic building of Calgary and a great place to take in a hockey game, concert or a tractor pull!!

It's a little worn. Doesn't have much space for the large crowd so the entry area is always packed.
It's big but the seats aren't very comfortable

a good place to see games. seats are comfortable, easy to find a gate. a wide variety of food. Clean

I've been to the Saddledome for a few different events now, and I really like it. The atmosphere with our history and Calgary's obvious passion for hockey is just awesome. It does run a little small for big events like concerts, but I can't blame them, since the 'Dome is obviously built for hockey. Only other small issues are that there are no cup holders and the food is outrageously expensive, but I can't say I'm surprised.

I love the Dome, used to be a second home to me as I worked there for several years and have been a DIEHARD Flames/Sports fan my whole life. Just which I could keep going back and "chillin with Jarome"

Go Flames. This is a pretty good arena and most of the food is pretty good

This place is always a nightmare. Parking is expensive and far away. You get searched like it's an airline. Tickets for things are crazy expensive. Food is expensive and not that great. You gotta really really like the games to deal with this place

Big stadium, and lots of seats. Make sure to get here early for parking, and to avoid the lines. The hockey is pretty good, but it is always more exciting when there is an NHL game here.

Great place, you can get lettuce wrapped burgers from the flame broiled burger joint

Poor acoustics, uncomfortable seats, lack of hand rails on the upper bowl.

In need of a renovation. Not enough bathrooms. Still makes for a fun night out

Must try the Aussie Burger from Down Under. Best arena burger hands down.

I think it's a great arena. Good seating from anywhere to watch the game.

First game! It was more exciting than the game, and the heat of cheer was also hot. Hockey attracted me to my first experience!

10.25 a beer........god help us. Can you imagine what the beer price would be in a new arena ? 14 or 15 bucks a beer.

Absolutely awful parking. Took an hour to get out of the parking lot. The Saddledome itself is well past it's prime.

This is a photo of the setup of a Roughnecks Pro Lacrosse game. Get entertainment at a very reasonable price. Normal games can be had for $25 / ticket or less. Lots of participation with the fans and kids interaction at halftime this March 24th.
