I absolutely love watching hockey games.At first it wasn't in my interest but now I seem to really like it.Theyre food is good to just a little on the expensive end but what can you expect it's a tourist place. Ive had the chance to go to their teddy bear tosses are a big it,I've been to two of them and was overall excited.
Love watching hockey games and concerts at this place we all know the food and drinks are fairly pricey. Its an older building but its a fun night out
Came here with friends one of them may have had to many drinks. so they cut us all off before game starred and tried to kick us out. Could have sent him and let us have fun.
The aisles between each row of seats is too small. If your seats are in the middle of the row, the people sitting need to stand and it's a fairly awkward and sometimes dangerous journey just to sit. Also the chairs can also get uncomfortable if you're seated for an extensive period of time.
P.S. the ground is ridiculously sticky.
A treasure of Calgary. We go for the hockey. The nosebleed section sucks you cannot see most of the ice but the atmosphere rocks! Drinks are expensive but they serve more than 2 kinds. Lots of venders to choose from on all 4 levels...look forward to long lines and expensive everything...but a great expierence!
I had fun here! It was a good environment to watch the game. Good place for families.
Great hockey game. Nice place. But make sure you only bring a small camera with you they don't accept professional cameras!!!! Very disappointing
Always a great time going for a show! Bring money for the drinks, kinda pricy!!
It's a very dated place for a NHL franchise and it's always overlooked for concerts because of the design and size of venue.
Fantastic state of the art facility. In 1983. If they can charge $4.50 for a bottled water they can afford to build a new arena.
Happy hour before the game. You'd never see that in TO.
Awesome venues, don't waste hour time on the roughnecks lacrosse games though
Doesn't matter what event you're doing here whether it's the hockey game or social event for an Agricultural, this place has stood the test of time. The food here is incredible it's by far the best place to eat drink Stampede and oftentimes your best bet to eat during a hockey game
This place still hosts amazing events but the facility is getting a bit long in the tooth.
Attended concert with Zac Brown Band. Music absolutely super, but the sound /acoustic was terrible.
Flames are awesome staff at vendors were great. But why cant they get with it and have debit.Not ever one has a credit card or cash on them all the time. Ever one carries dedit tho just saying.
Older stadium, but entertainment is always top notch. Plenty of washrooms if you time your visit right! Seat signs and directions are visible and easy to understand
Very unique stadium, but unfortunately this stadiums best days are behind it. From the long lines for washrooms, jam packed concourses, and constant stream of people going up the aisles to the upper deck, this arena is not very fan friendly. Decent once you're in your seat, as long as it's not the upper deck, that's about it
Wether or not we get a new spot, Calgary fans are the craziest!!!
I Have had season tickets for years and now after the flood of 2013 I may have to give them up due to the fact that the new seats are so uncomfortable that I came home with a severe back ache. Weird part is that my seats are second tier row 2 and I don't know why they were replaced as the flood waters never reached that high. The new seats have higher backs which my shins press against on the seat in front of me also the seats themselves are shorter than the old ones and no longer have arm rests that can be folded up. They are a very cheaply made compromise. I believe that the seats from the second tier were used to replace the ones on the lower tier.
Great atmosphere, plenty of food and drink options, comfortable seats, really great arena!
Expensive to park and concession stand prices are high. Friendly staff.
The flame's sucked today any over day it's a nice building
Great hockey arena! Can t beat some good Canadian hockey!
Typical indoor stadium, hosting a variety of sporting events. While in town I a minor hockey game. The stadium staff were very gracious and hospitable.
The Saddledome was built for the 88 Winter Olympics, and it very much shows its age.
The seats are uncomfortable, and green for some reason (which makes empty seats stand out like a sore thumb). The sight lines in the lower bowl are okay, but the second level is the place to be. Stay far far away from the 300s. At the top of the third tier air conditioning pipes will block most of the view of the ice.
Overall: The food vendors are lacking, drink selection is poor, the acoustics are just awful, and the building is very dated. Flames need to reno or rebuild this facility soon.
Enjoyable watching the game and great fun for the kids. Awesome staff!
Probably shouldn't have been so surprised, but it was actually freezing inside
Flames Fan no matter what!!! Parking was different due to pre Grey Cup festivities
It was my first time visiting!Great place to watch a hockey game!
Sure could use a new stadium. Also traffic after the game really sucks
I've seen a couple shows here and games, as far as sports go it's great views no matter where and the crowd is alive always, for the shows everything was great but sound not so much
Well run establishment. It's nice to see that they employ lots of young people.
I had won a pair of free tickets to see Little Big Town in concert Saturday night. Don and I went and it was amazing with their musical genius, laser lights and smoke affect. Great night!! Saddledome was packed.
I am in TOTAL Agreement it has become absolutely crazy for regular ppl to be able to get tickets anymore.
Absolutely love going to events here. Staff are always so wonderful to chat and joke around with. Expensive to have a beer, but still great atmosphere.
It's a cool facility; well loved for all the awesome events it's held. Also, who doesn't love the saddle shape of the building? There's lots of parking, the drop off zones are off of the main streets, so it's very easy; and the train is right close. Only negative is that it is definitely crowded inside. The hallways around the main concourse are extremely squishy during sold out events. The seating is tight in the upper levels, but not terrible; lower levels are decent. It's a dated facility now, but overall still very acceptable.
So much fun. Jeff Bell working at section 226 is awesome
Went for a Roughnecks game. Always a party in the dome. Stuff is pricey, but expected.
Best place to watch my fave hockey team - Calgary Flames!
Good clean space. Anything can happen. Saw the ride horse and shoot target event. Great entertainment. Sat on the edge of my seat.
Club seats were very nice but imagine not accepting a debit card from Scotiabank.... at the Scotiabank Saddledome
I love the Saddledome but at the same time it's outdated.
Hanging out a Flames game. The dome is dated and difficult to navigate when the crowd is in the concourse between periods.
The perfect venue for th first level. Anything higher loses quality
An old arena that is due for replacement. The amenities are out dated and the layout is poor. Sound is TERRIBLE for live music.
Expensive food and drinks and the place could use a face lift
