Nick Smith Centre Ice Rentals

The Nick Smith Centre arenas have recently undergone a $7-million revitalization that replaced aging infrastructure, improved accessibility and created new meeting and storage spaces. While some project elements are still in the works, both arenas have re-opened to the public. For more information on the NSC Arena Revitalization, visit our project page.

This facility has two NHL-sized arenas, featuring accessible benches, four change rooms per arena, an alternate dressing room and a referees dressing room. All dressing rooms are equipped with washrooms and showers. Ice availability on either arena can be viewed online via the ‘Ice Availability’ button below.
