This is actually a really nice arena, I was not quite prepared for it, as I didn't think that ice hockey was very popular in England. If the Panthers are playing, it's a great and relatively cheap night of fun. The seats are close to the action and all have great views.

Enjoy the ice hockey, but the price of food/ at the outlets is very expensive. As they class this as a "family" sport it would prove to be very very expensive to take a family of Mum,Dad and two children.

Attended our first Panthers match the other day. Whilst the overall experience was enjoyable there are a few points that i feel are worth a mention to anyone considering a visit.
The arena is situated in the heart of Nottingham and is one of those venues that sits on the side of a main city centre road...but on a busy day can be extremely difficult for someone unfamiliar with Nottingham to get to a parking spot within a reasonable distance of it !. Especially as you find yourself trying to avoid bus lanes, stay within average speed limits and avoid other road users who are obviously more familiar with the roads !.



The walk to the ice arena was only a few hundred yards and took just a few minutes.
Once we arrived we headed for our hospitality box and began to get a feel for the game which had started a good 20 minutes before.
As the first session ended we decided to purchase some food and made our way to a small bar behind the boxes.
The staff were polite and attentive and we ordered 3 cokes and a basket of chips.



I only wanted a snack and a drink...not to sponsor the team

Returning to our box with our we then waited for the gold plated chips to arrive.....37 minutes from the time of ordering!!

The game continued and the last part was more akin to a mass brawl than hockey but we thought it was hilarious and enjoyable all the same, one of the players actually snapped his hockey stick in half !. Eventually the Panthers secured the winning goal in the dying minutes....which resulted in a few more scuffles and sin bin visits

My first Ice Hockey match and really enjoyed it, exciting end to end stuff. Some corny tannoy stuff but it added to the atmosphere. Good views from the seats, plenty of food and drink outlets (bit pricey but that was expected) all in all a good time was had.
