Rexall Place Concessions - Edmonton, Alberta

Great hockey barn about to be demolished after the Oilers hockey team moved to the new arena! Great memories of the games concerts etc.

Although this iconic building is no longer in use there is alot of history here , from the hundreds of concerts all the rodeos , klondike days events the oil king's failed in door soccer, lacrosse and of course the Edmonton Oilers and their dynasty the one set back was ... how northlands went into debt couldn't pay their bill's to the city , insanely over priced parking and horrible food and outrageously price beer wine and spirits time to move on the Roger's place and start again goodbye northlands Read more

The coliseum, Northlands Coliseum, Skyreach Centre and Rexall Place whatever you knew it as is no more. It has been replaced by Rogers Place for a couple years and this building is no longer needed. More than likely it will be demolished. There is an amazing amount of ... history in this building from hockey championships to music concerts and everything in between. Sad to see it go but things change. I remember when the building was brand new and now it will be gone. Read more

This place has some special value; all of my first hockey games, concerts, etc. were in this building. I watched so many events, and had so many good times. That said, it has aged, and it isn't a very nice "modern" arena for concerts and sports. For a while, it ... had a secondary life of being a city rink where men's leagues played hockey, and it was fun. While the dressing rooms were small, you had to clear security to play, and the ice was only in so-so condition, it was fun to skate in the same building you had watched so many NHL games in. And the bar/kitchen was usually opened after games. Now the entire building is basically shuttered and waiting demolition. :( Read more

Attending the CFR it is a great time. The only thing that I didn't like was the leg room. But that's old news for a place that's been around as long as rexall place. Glad to hear they are keeping the CFR in Edmonton for next year. The Rodeo ... is a blast best show ever:-) Read more
