Northlands Coliseum

Northlands Coliseum, Indoor sports arena in Edmonton, Canada

Northlands Coliseum is a circular arena in Edmonton with a shallow domed roof of light grey vertical panels and a dark band above. Its facade carries a red oval Rexall Place sign, a white TELUS sign, a blue ATB Finan sign and a blue Ford oval, with dark glass doors at the base. It seated 16,839 for hockey.

The arena opened in 1974 and served as the Edmonton Oilers' primary home for over four decades until 2016. It witnessed five Stanley Cup championships for the team during the 1980s, making it central to the region's hockey history.

The arena hosted the Christian Youth Conference Alberta from 2000, drawing over 17,000 attendees, and a bronze statue of Wayne Gretzky stands beside the building. Crowds here set noise levels of 114 dB during the 2006 Stanley Cup Finals and the 2006 playoff series against San Jose. Five replicas of the Stanley Cup sit just past the entrance to the former Oilers dressing room.

The building is closed and being dismantled, so it cannot be entered; the Rexall Place sign and the Ford, TELUS and ATB signs on the facade can be seen from the paved lot outside. A bronze statue of Wayne Gretzky stands beside the building. Final demolition is scheduled to begin in summer 2026 and finish by 2028.

The arena's ice was often rated among the best in the NHL, and its loud, loyal fans set a record: during the 2006 Stanley Cup playoff games against San Jose and in the final, noise reached 114 dB. A large bronze statue of Wayne Gretzky stands beside the building.
