Seating Recommendations and Charts

Centerfire Place offers seating for approximately 1,537 guests, with reserved seating for hockey and a flexible configuration for concerts and special events. Suites and VIP boxes are available for select dates, giving you options from up-close action to elevated comfort.

• Center Ice Sections: For Oil Barons games, center-ice seating provides the best all-around view — great sightlines to faceoffs, rushes, and play at both ends.
• Lower Bowl Seats: The lower rows put you right on top of the action, perfect if you want to feel the speed and physicality on the ice. For concerts, lower-bowl seats near the stage side deliver strong sightlines without being on the floor.
• Floor Seating (Concerts & Events): When concerts or exhibitions set up on the arena floor, floor seats offer the most direct line to the stage or performance area.
• Behind-the-Net Views: These end-zone seats give you a unique angle on scoring chances and goalie play — a favorite for fans who love watching offensive sets develop.
• Suites & VIP Boxes: Enjoy private seating, an elevated perspective, and a more relaxed experience for groups, clients, or special occasions.

Location and Transportation

Venue Address

Centerfire Place

Fort McMurray, Alberta T9H 5A5

Located within Fort McMurray — approximately 435 km northeast of Edmonton — the arena is easy to reach for local fans and out-of-town visitors alike.

• Parking: On-site parking lot available; free parking for most events.
• Public Transit: Local Fort McMurray transit routes serve the area.
• Rideshare & Dropoff: Designated pickup and dropoff area in the main parking lot.

Arrival Recommendations

Plan to arrive 60–90 minutes before puck drop or showtime. Early arrival makes parking simple, helps you avoid entry lines, and gives you time to grab concessions and find your seats. It’s the best way to be in your spot when the Oil Barons hit the ice or when the lights go down for a concert.

Fort McMurray winters can bring severe travel conditions. While the arena is fully indoors, consider extra travel time in cold or snowy weather, and dress for the brief walk from the lot to the entrance. If you’re using public transit, check schedules in advance — evening service windows can vary by route.

Walking from the parking lot to the main entrance is minimal and generally level, with accessible paths throughout. If you’re meeting friends, choose a clear landmark like the main lobby so your group can reconnect quickly before heading to your section.

Venue Navigation

Centerfire Place is designed for ease — a multi-purpose layout with spectator seating that prioritizes good sightlines across the arena. You’ll find access to seating from the main level, with ramps available and elevator access to the suite level for guests who need it.

Concession stands offer classic arena fare along with beverages, and ATMs are available in the lobby for convenience. On game nights, the Oil Barons merchandise stand is a go-to stop for team gear. Community meeting rooms and multi-purpose spaces support a variety of local events, and restrooms are conveniently located to keep lines moving during intermissions and set breaks.

Post-Purchase Tips — Be Ready for Event Day

• Download your tickets before arriving — cell service can be limited.
• Bring a valid ID and cashless payment option.
• Charge your phone fully.
• Review venue policies in advance.
• Use the on-site parking lot — it’s free for most events.
• In winter, monitor road conditions around Fort McMurray and allow extra travel time.

Pre-Event Planning

Make a night of it by dining before the event — several strong options in downtown Fort McMurray are just a short drive away. Grabbing a bite beforehand means you can head straight to your seats without rushing for concessions once you arrive.

If you’re visiting from out of town or turning the game into a weekend plan, pair your tickets with time at nearby attractions like MacDonald Island Park or the Oil Sands Discovery Centre. Depending on the season, you can explore the Birchwood Trails or even keep an eye out for the Northern Lights.

Coordinating with a group? Choose a meet-up point at the main entrance or in the lobby, then head in together. If you’re celebrating a special occasion, consider suites or VIP boxes when available — they offer privacy and an elevated view that’s perfect for groups.

Centerfire Place is ADA-accessible, with designated accessible parking near the main entrance, accessible seating available in select sections, ramps throughout the venue, and elevator access to the suite level. Assistive listening devices are available upon request, ensuring an inclusive experience for guests with hearing needs.
