Centre 200, Multi-purpose arena in Sydney, Canada
Centre 200 is a multi-purpose arena in downtown Sydney featuring a main hall that seats around 5,000 people and expands to roughly 6,500 for concerts. The facility includes exhibit space and connects to adjacent buildings such as Casino Nova Scotia in a unified complex.
The venue opened in 1987 as a bicentennial project marking Sydney's founding, launching with a performance by Canadian musician Bryan Adams. It quickly became a major hub for sports and cultural events in the region.
It serves as home to the Cape Breton Eagles hockey team, drawing fans regularly for games and tournaments. The venue shapes local sports culture and brings residents together through shared passion for the team.
The venue sits on George Street in downtown Sydney with plenty of parking for visitors arriving by car. Its central location also makes it accessible by public transit from different parts of the city.
The arena witnessed the Cape Breton Oilers clinching the AHL Calder Cup in 1993, a triumph that many local hockey fans still remember with pride. This moment solidified the city's reputation as a serious hockey town.
