Cominco Arena seating chart — Trail, British Columbia

Discover the Beloved Cominco Arena

The Cominco Arena is more than an arena — it's a beloved community hub that brings Trail together for hockey and local events. Located at the heart of the Trail Memorial Centre complex, it’s where fans check the Cominco Arena seating chart, meet friends, and cheer on the Trail Smoke Eaters.

With a capacity of 2,537, the venue offers an intimate, energized atmosphere that puts you close to the action. As part of the Trail Memorial Centre, it shares a campus with a curling club, gymnasium, racquetball and squash courts, and several meeting rooms — a one-stop destination for sport and community gatherings.

Home to the Trail Smoke Eaters of the British Columbia Hockey League, the arena hosts home games, BCHL playoffs, and regional tournaments. It also supports community programming and multi-use activities across the Memorial Centre, making Cominco Arena events a fixture of local life year-round.

A standout feature: recent upgrades created a year-round ice surface — the first in the West Kootenay area to offer summer ice — expanding training and event possibilities beyond the traditional season. Whether you’re here for junior hockey or a community celebration, you’ll find a welcoming venue built for shared moments.

Location and Transportation

Venue Address

Cominco Arena

1051 Victoria St

Trail, British Columbia V1R 3T3

Located in Trail — a small city in southeastern British Columbia — the arena is approximately 10 km from Castlegar, making it easy to pair a game with regional sightseeing or dining.

• Parking: On-site parking available; details on cost or capacity vary by event — check the venue's official website or a local parking app for availability near the venue.
• Public Transit: Limited public transit options are available; local bus service may serve the area.
• Rideshare & Dropoff: Rideshare services such as Uber and Lyft are recommended. Designated pickup and dropoff zones are typically available near the main entrance.

Arrival Recommendations

Plan to arrive 45–60 minutes before your event. This window gives you time to park, navigate the Trail Memorial Centre grounds, and get settled — especially during popular Trail Smoke Eaters home games or regional tournaments when crowds can be larger.

As an indoor venue, weather is generally not a concern once you’re inside. If you’re arriving from nearby communities or Castlegar, consider local driving conditions and allow a little extra time during peak travel periods. Checking the Cominco Arena seating chart in advance helps you plan your entry path and find your seats with minimal delay.

If you’re using on-site parking, follow posted signage on arrival and keep your digital tickets ready for quick access. Public transit in the region is limited, so aim to coordinate timing carefully if you plan to use local bus service for Cominco Arena events.

Venue Navigation

Cominco Arena sits within the larger Trail Memorial Centre — a multi-venue complex that also includes two hockey arenas, a curling club, a gymnasium, racquetball and squash courts, and several meeting rooms. The layout makes it convenient to pair your event with other activities at the Centre, whether you’re attending a meeting or catching a community program before or after the game.

Walking from the parking area to the arena entrance is minimal, and the shared campus design makes transitions between spaces straightforward. If you plan to explore the broader facility, give yourself a few extra minutes to move between the arena and adjacent areas within the Trail Memorial Centre.

• Plan to arrive 45–60 minutes early for popular Trail Smoke Eaters games.
• If you’re driving, allow extra time for on-site parking during peak Cominco Arena events.

Pre-Event Planning

Make a night of it by pairing your visit with time in downtown Trail. The venue is close to local dining and gathering spots, so you can enjoy a meal or a drink before puck drop or a community event. If you’re traveling from Castlegar or nearby towns, consider arriving early to stroll the Columbia River area or explore a neighborhood favorite, then head to your seats.

Check the Cominco Arena schedule for Trail Smoke Eaters home games, BCHL playoff dates, and regional tournaments. With recent upgrades enabling year-round ice — the first in the West Kootenay area to offer summer ice — you’ve got more opportunities than ever to catch training, tournaments, or off-season showcases.

Coordinating with a group? Share tickets in advance and set a simple meet-up plan so you can enter together and head straight to your seats. If you’re spending the day in the area, consider quick stops at the Columbia River Skywalk or Gyro Park before the game for scenic views and fresh air.
