Venue Address

Grand Casino Arena

Public Transit: Served by Metro Transit buses and the Green Line light rail, with stops near the arena.
Rideshare & Dropoff: Designated pickup and dropoff zones are available near the arena.

Arrival Recommendations

Plan to arrive 60–90 minutes before your event start time. That window gives you time to park, pass through security, and explore concessions and merchandise stands before the lights go down or the puck drops. If you’re taking public transit on the Green Line or Metro Transit buses, arriving early adds a buffer for transfers and walking time.

Grand Casino Arena is an indoor venue, so weather won’t affect your experience once you’re inside. If you’re driving on a busy event night, consider a nearby garage and a short walk to the entrance to save time. Rideshare dropoffs near the arena can also streamline your arrival and exit.

Before you head to your seat, take a moment to enjoy the glass exterior—on clear evenings, it offers striking views of downtown Saint Paul, making a great pre-show photo op. Cell service is generally strong throughout the building, which makes mobile tickets and in-venue coordination simple.

Venue Navigation

The arena’s multipurpose layout supports everything from NHL games to large-scale concerts, so you’ll find straightforward routes to lower and upper seating levels, along with floor access when applicable. Elevators and ramps are available, making it easy for all guests to move between levels.

You’ll find multiple concession stands throughout the concourses offering standard arena fare and Minnesota-inspired specialties, along with local beer selections at select locations. Team and event merchandise is available at multiple stands across the venue, and ATMs are placed throughout for added convenience.

Post-Purchase Tips — Be Ready for Event Day

Make the most of your night by checking the Grand Casino Arena schedule and planning dinner or drinks nearby. With more than 150 sporting, concert, and entertainment events annually, there’s always something on the calendar—whether you’re in for NHL hockey or a major tour.

If you’re attending with a group, set a meetup spot inside the concourse once you’re through security so everyone can regroup before finding seats. Public transit on the Green Line or nearby parking garages make coordination simple, and rideshare pickup zones offer a convenient exit plan after the show.

Want a memorable moment before the event starts? The arena’s glass exterior provides striking views of downtown Saint Paul—especially at sunset—so build in a few minutes for photos before heading to your section. It’s an easy way to start the night with something special.
