Such a great building.. Hope to be able to see another game at the Saddledome before Calgary builds a new stadium. They wont build such a unique place for sure. Lots of Parking and just minutes from downtown Calgary

One of my absolute favourite places. The staff are all amazing from the concession to the staff directing you to your seats. The atmosphere is so fun and inviting- we absolutely love going to the Scotiabank Saddledome and even more so being a part of the C of Red! We will be sad when the day comes that we have a new arena and the Saddledome won’t be the main attraction downtown.

The current home of the Calgary Flames and the Calgary Hitmen. This arena has an interesting style to it. Since it was built in the 80's it is getting on in age. They do keep in nice and updated. During Flames' games the food is quite expensive and it is recommended you eat before you get there. Although there is some nice restaurants in the building. Really easy access from the C-Train and there is a good amount of parking, though parking is quite steep in price too.

A seriously amazing experience watching the hockey game. The atmosphere is electric with tons of people cheering and the dome erupts after every point. A save? You'll hear cheers. A point scored against Calgary? There's still applause. It's the people that make it such a fun experience! You can actually feel the heat from the "fire cannons" after the flames score. The whole stadium is spectacularly red, from the lighting to the fan jerseys. A husky will fire out jerseys during the game too! How that dog got a firearm license is beyond me. The view from all sections gives you a decent view of the game so no need to worry about visibility (they also have huge TV screens for sections farther from the rink). Intermission means a flood of people heading to the washrooms so there is 100% a line for every single washroom. They have metal detectors before you enter the dome as well and you're not allowed to bring in food/drink. Food sold there is alright, beer, mac n cheese, fries, pretzels, your typical game food. They did have vegetarian options though. There's plenty of stalls strewn around the hallways with vendors walking up the stairway to sell directly at your seat. Some issues I have are with the hallways leading to the seats the seats themselves. The Saddledome wasn't even fully filled and there were issues with getting out after the game. There's just so little room to move around that you're squished. Also getting to your seat in the middle of a row is seriously annoying. There's very little room to walk past other people so try to get tickets on the edge of the row. My tickets were 240 for 2 people in section 2 but that can vary. It's definitely aging consider Calgary's population but it does the job. Space issues and the overall look is industrial. That said, you'll have a great time despite these small issues. It's a must go and the facility itself shouldn't stop you from relaxing and having a blast at the Saddledome! So much fun!

We had a wonderful time at the Flames game. Been a fan from Texas for 22 years and finally made a trip to see the team at home. Wasn’t disappointed at all (besides the shut out), and was thrilled I got to see the classic Saddledome before the erection of a new stadium. Wish I could go back right now! Had such a fun night out there!

The arena has so much cultural significance and is a Calgary landmark. Unfortunately the building is in dire need of a renovation/remodel/replacement.

When planning my trip, I made sure a visit to the Saddledome was included in the itinerary. I went to the season opener for the Calgary Flames and had a great time. Security wasn't bad as I entered and met some great people too. The food selection isn't bad and the beer selection was better. Even if you aren't a Flames fan, you need to go for the atmosphere. So much fun!!
