Jobing.Com Arena - Phoenix Coyotes - National Hockey League Reviews

Great times to be had at Gila River Arena, home of the Coyotes.

Best Elton John concert ever, and this was my fifth show. Arena accoustics were superb. Easy in and out before and after the show

Were there to see Coyote meet Calgary. A big experience.

Always a great time when we go for hockey games. Though I think the Coyotes games need an "obnoxious jerks who misuse profanity and abuse personal space" section.

We called the box office and paid for upgraded tickets for a Coyote game, as they were represented. We paid airfare and hotel fees to attend the game. Only when we got to the arena, the tickets we purchased were not what we got. Took an hour to get the issue resolved. We missed all of the pregame and the beginning of the game. There was almost a fight in the box office. Don't go through the box office!!!

A fun arena with great atmosphere! Drinks are really pricey though.

Came here for a Coyotes game. Nice arena and good concessions

Went to go see TSO. Security was surprisingly fast but thorough. Order the chicken BBQ pizza and chicken wings. Both tasted great. Beer glass on small size. Bottle of water. All expensive. Ended up paying $42. And $10. For parking. TSO shirt don't get me started.

Huge arena. The sound system is not great for shows. It seemed to get a little better as the show went on and then got a lot worse. They had a lot of open bars and lines weren't too bad. Bathrooms are big and clean. The facility is huge and was pretty big.

Been there for concerts and sporting events. Absolutely fantastic place to be!

Very clean, not the greatest signage to find where to go, good security, friendly staff.

Very nice venue for large crowds.
Lots of restaurants around for early event arrivals. We were there to see Cher.

Very nice stadium, it was even better watching the Blackhawks spank Arizona

So a soda is $9.00 so bring lots of cash. The food was great I got the chicken tacos.

It was great as a concert venue we had never been here before

Always have a great time watching hockey at this arena. I go to at least 4 different arenas every year and this is my favorite.

Great game last night. The arena is okay. Bathrooms needed some attention, and everything is ridiculously expensive.

Nice venue for a concert. Well-organized and staffed. I was pleasantly surprised!

Great arena, however the security is another story! I get that at a coyotes game you may need top notch security, but when a local squirt game plays here in their tournament, there is absolutely NO reason for security to be so rude to a small group of families here to watch their kids! Tone it down guys! I know you all missed your calling in law enforcement, but this job is not your answer to missed careers! Stop acting like the coyotes are playing and let us enjoy our kids!!!

Favorite venue when it comes to larger concerts. Seems like you can't really have a bad seat and the sound quality is fantastic.

Gila River Arena is a great venue. I am new to Arizona and have attended 4 hockey games and have enjoyed the experience especially in a nice arena. The people attending even though they are cheering for their teams are polite, win or lose. No hard feelings, just fun and having a good time.

I love the coyotes but please get out of this building

I have not been to a hockey game but have been to a concert here. Nice size arena with plenty of great views.

I've been here for hockey games and live concerts and both were great. The venue accommodates large crowds well. The arena is in front of a bunch of bars and places for shopping so you can enjoy more than just the event you came to see.

If you are coming from the East side be sure to factor in traveling time, especially if it is a popular event.

Hockey Game is the event I attended with 3 guests. Very well organized... Lots of people to help with directions, plenty of food, drinks, restrooms, and police for security. Was very comfortable being there. Would absolutely go again.
Drink prices were VERY expensive..Tip: PRE GAME

Wow, Phoenix has the worst arena and hockey team I have ever seen!!

Nice arena, need more monitors in the higher levels so we can see what's going on through the smoke and mirrors on stage.

Beautiful Arena for Hockey, not a bad seat in the house

The school field trip for STEM was very good. We watched the Coyotes practice then a staff member did a presentation with other employees describing their jobs while students filled out questions on a bingo card. The bingo cards were used to give the kids a chance to win prizes.

They now charge for handicap parking, such a disappointment.

My wife and I went to a Cayotes game and had a blast!!

Went to see a concert. Great venue. Problem, however, they only had a few doors open with long lines and the concert beginning in 20 min. They need to be sure to have more doors open for a sold out performance.

Hockey game was great. ! Az. Coyotes beat Las Vegas Knights 4 -1. Had a nachos and pulled pork with beans and cheese . It was good. Snack stand was pricey that nacho and pulled pork cost me about 16 dollar. Hockey fans are the best, more energetic loud fans that love the hockey game. I love it too. Go Coyotes. ......

Went to hockey game here. Very nice seating but expensive. Even the beer was expensive, like $16 for a large can. Take a jacket if you go for hockey as it is cold in there. Terrific overhead monitors for viewing replays.

I love having a hockey team in the desert. I go watch live games as much as I can! Great arena!

Amazing time! Great game. My girls went to their first game and it was perfect!

It would be a better arena if the coyotes weren't terrible... but in all seriousness, it's a great facility with a multitude of different events. The biggest downside is that it's so far from the east valley.

Have seen several hockey games and a few concerts here, always a ton of fun, great venue, always worth the visit

One of the best arenas I have experienced....the ambiance, the setting and how it was planned out provides a great experience for the hardcore fans and for the one time fans. The lower level is price accessible and the view is quite good no matter where you sit. To my liking, there's no best intro as the Coyotes intro.

I really liked it. We came while visiting Arizona to watch the Phoenix Coyotes hockey game. I know some of the locals complain that the arena is out of the way a little bit but it is way way nicer than where the Phoenix Suns play. This is a great arena for ice hockey.

Honestly one of the best venues in sports. The food is excellent with a wide variety of options. There's ample access to all amenities and lots of room to walk and still catch the game on TVs or standing areas above the seating on case your toddler gets restless during the game like mine did...

Great time and positive staff. The seats made it easy to watch the game. Although pricey, the food was of good quality.

Rude asa customer service, don't recommend this venture

Nice location, but traffic to get out to a game on weekdays is horrendous.

I love this arena, I have been to several hockey games here and never had a bad experience. The food prices are on par with any other sports venue.

Gila River Arena is a nice NHL facility. All they need is an NHL team to play there. If there is a boring hockey team to watch I haven't seen them.

PA announcer is too loud and shrill. It is almost impossible to understand anything she says.

Been here for several coyotes games and always have a good time. It does get a lil cold during hockey games and the upper deck is very steep. Use caution. Recently saw Smashing Pumpkins here and it was good, but the bass was a little muddy. We were in section 117, pretty much the middle of the stage.

Had great time at SmackDown the ushers were very helpful with finding our seats

Get there super early!!! Security is super slow and it takes forever to actually get in the venue. The venue itself is great but getting there, finding parking, and the getting through security is a mess!

They should have hockey here year round... and shuttles to bring people to the games since the arena is in east California...

Went here for the Coyotes v. Pens game, the stadium is in pretty bad shape and it was freezing cold. The staff was nice.

Love my Coyotes , the arena is always clean and staff very helpful , the prices have gone up and paying to park is just gouging i.m.o....owwww Owwww owwww let's go coyotes

Food options could be better but otherwise a nice stadium

Watched our first hockey game. Arena was nice. Seats were as comfortable as can be expected. Food was as pricey as can be expected. It is chilly for a hockey game. Dress warm!

Beautiful facility and very well organized. Parking is a breeze. Nice and clean and lots of nice amenities.

Had a great time watching Coyotes Hockey. Food was good but pricey.

Helpful and kind. People want you here. Greay atmosphere and place to spend an evening
