Arena
Rogers Place is the home of the Edmonton Oilers (NHL) and Edmonton Oil Kings (WHL), located at 10220 104 Avenue NW in downtown Edmonton, Alberta. Opened on September 8, 2016, the arena was built on a former rail yard and parking lot in 33 months by PCL Construction. Designed by HOK in association with DIALOG, Rogers Place cost approximately $613.7 million (City of Edmonton contributing $125 million; Katz Group of Companies $100 million; a user-paid facility fee of $125 million; and provincial and other contributions). The City of Edmonton owns Rogers Place; Oilers Entertainment Group operates it under a 35-year agreement that includes a non-relocation clause keeping the Oilers in Edmonton through 2051. Rogers Place holds two significant firsts: it is the first LEED Silver-certified NHL arena in Canada, incorporating 14% reduced energy consumption through motion-activated LED lighting, 12 electric car charging stations, 37% less water usage, and diversion of 89% of construction debris from landfills. It also has the largest true high-definition centre-ice scoreboard in the NHL -- a landmark display that became the arena's defining technological feature on opening. The arena anchors ICE District, Canada's largest sports and entertainment district, spanning 25 acres of downtown Edmonton. ICE District includes the JW Marriott Hotel (with Oliver & Bonacini's Braven steakhouse, Kindred restaurant, and Alchemy bar), Grand Villa Casino, 1.3 million sq ft of office space in two towers, SKY Residences, and a 77,000 sq ft ICE District Plaza that hosts outdoor watch parties and events for up to 8,000 fans. Rogers Place and ICE District have collectively spurred over $5 billion in surrounding private and public development, transforming Edmonton's downtown from a struggling core to a destination. A further CA$250 million event park expansion was approved in 2025 to add a 2,500-person outdoor venue adjacent to Rogers Place. MacEwan Station (Edmonton Metro Line LRT) is directly connected to Rogers Place by an enclosed, climate-controlled pedway -- eliminating cold-weather transit challenges for Edmonton's winters, which regularly drop below -30°C. The ICE District pedway network extends to surrounding hotels and office towers, allowing fans to travel from the JW Marriott to their arena seat without setting foot outside. Wayne Gretzky's statue stands at the main entrance, unveiled on opening night. Studio 99 (named for Gretzky's number) is the arena's premium restaurant. The Oilers -- powered by Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl, two of hockey's generation-defining players -- reached back-to-back Stanley Cup Finals in 2024 (losing to Florida 4-3) and 2025 (losing to Carolina 4-2), making Rogers Place one of the most electric arenas in the NHL.
Rogers Place is directly connected by enclosed pedway to MacEwan Station on the Metro Line (Edmonton LRT). The pedway allows fans to travel from the LRT platform into the arena without going outside -- critical for Edmonton's winters. The Capital Line and Metro Line both serve the downtown area. From Century Park (south Edmonton park-and-ride), the Capital Line to downtown takes approximately 20--25 minutes. From NAIT (north), the Metro Line connects directly to MacEwan. Multiple stations within a 5-minute walk include Government Centre, Bay/Enterprise Square, and Central Station. Edmonton Transit Service bus routes also connect to the LRT network.
Multiple ETS bus routes serve the downtown core near Rogers Place. The 104 Avenue and 104 Street corridors have strong bus coverage. ETS routes connect ICE District to all parts of Edmonton. The MacEwan LRT station pedway is the most direct indoor connection. On Oilers game nights, ETS adds supplemental service on key routes. Rideshare (Uber) is available in Edmonton with designated pickup zones outside the arena on 104 Avenue.
Rogers Place is at 10220 104 Avenue NW in downtown Edmonton, accessible from Yellowhead Trail (Highway 16), 97 Street, and 104 Avenue. ICE District Central Parkade provides direct indoor access to the arena. Additional REEF-managed pre-paid parking lots are available in the ICE District area. Pre-purchase parking at rogersplace.com via REEF for guaranteed spaces. Edmonton's downtown grid is logical -- far easier to navigate than many Canadian city centres.

Rogers Place anchors ICE District -- a 25-acre mixed-use development with the JW Marriott Hotel, Grand Villa Casino, restaurants, bars, offices, and residences all connected by pedways and plazas. The 77,000 sq ft ICE District Plaza (outdoor) can host up to 8,000 fans for game-night outdoor viewing. Edmonton's downtown pedway system connects ICE District to surrounding hotels and office towers -- providing indoor walking routes away from Edmonton's harsh winters. Wayne Gretzky's statue stands at the arena's main entrance, unveiled on opening night in 2016.

It includes the JW Marriott Hotel, Grand Villa Casino, three Oliver & Bonacini restaurants, 1.3 million sq ft of office space in two towers, residences (SKY Residences), a 77,000 sq ft outdoor plaza, and the arena's own community rink (Ford Hall). Rogers Place and ICE District have spurred over $5 billion in surrounding private and public investment, transforming a defunct rail yard into Edmonton's downtown focal point.
Take the Edmonton LRT to MacEwan Station (Metro Line) -- directly connected to Rogers Place by an enclosed heated pedway, meaning you never have to go outside. From south Edmonton park-and-ride stations (Century Park, Heritage), the LRT journey is approximately 20 minutes. From downtown hotels in ICE District, the pedway network connects directly to the arena. The MacEwan LRT pedway is the most comfortable winter arena transit connection in the NHL.
Rogers Place holds the distinction of having the largest true high-definition centre-ice scoreboard in the NHL -- a massive HD display that became a landmark feature on opening in 2016. The arena also holds LEED Silver certification (first Canadian NHL arena), features 12 electric car charging stations, 14% reduced energy consumption through motion-activated LED lighting, and 89% of construction debris was diverted from landfills. It was designed by HOK (global sports architecture specialists) with Canadian firm DIALOG.
Wayne Gretzky is the greatest hockey player in history -- and an Edmonton Oiler from 1979 to 1988, during which he led the team to four Stanley Cup championships and set records that still stand. The statue, unveiled on the arena's opening night in October 2016, depicts Gretzky in his Oilers jersey and is the gathering point for Oilers fans before games. Gretzky's number 66 was retired by the Oilers, and the premium in-arena restaurant Studio 99 is named after his iconic jersey number.
The Oilers have not yet won the Stanley Cup at Rogers Place (opened 2016). The franchise's five Stanley Cup championships -- 1984, 1985, 1987, 1988, and 1990 -- were all won at Northlands Coliseum. However, the Oilers reached the Stanley Cup Finals in both 2024 (losing to Florida Panthers 4-3) and 2025 (losing to Carolina Hurricanes 4-2), making Rogers Place the site of some of the most exciting playoff hockey of the era.
Ford Hall is a community arena located beneath Rogers Place -- a full-size NHL regulation ice surface that serves as a public skating facility and community hockey rink for Edmonton residents. Access is via Rogers Place's lower levels. It is part of the arena's commitment to LEED-certified community engagement and is one of several features that distinguish Rogers Place from being purely a professional sports facility.
Rogers Place's 28,000 sq ft Food Hall features 15 vendors including Loaded Pierogi (Alberta-style), Hula Poke, Alta Vida Mexican Cocktail Bar, and Cross Bar Wine & Beer Station. Studio 99 (named for Gretzky) is the premium in-arena restaurant. Atlas Fish & Steak House provides premium dining.
