Peterborough Memorial Centre tickets — Peterborough, Ontario

Discover the Historic Peterborough Memorial Centre

The Peterborough Memorial Centre is more than a multi-purpose arena — it's a historic community hub that brings fans together for hockey, lacrosse, concerts, and hometown celebrations. Located at 151 Lansdowne Street West in Peterborough, Ontario, it’s a go-to destination for Peterborough Memorial Centre tickets and unforgettable live experiences across sports and entertainment.

Opened in 1956, the arena honors local veterans and showcases a classic mid-20th-century design with a comfortable bowl seating arrangement. With capacity for 4,329 guests, it blends history and modern comfort thanks to scoreboard and sound system upgrades and a flexible floor plan that can adapt from ice to non-ice events with ease.

Programming here is as diverse as the city it serves. Home to the Peterborough Petes (Ontario Hockey League) and the Peterborough Lakers (Major Series Lacrosse), the venue also welcomes major concerts, trade shows, and community events. Over the decades, icons like The Tragically Hip, Bryan Adams, Blue Rodeo, Alice Cooper, Hedley, Johnny Reid, Great Big Sea, and Burton Cummings have taken the stage, and the building has hosted OHL playoff games, major lacrosse championships, and civic commemorations.

Whether you’re cheering the Petes and Lakers or catching a chart-topping tour, the Centre’s intimate bowl puts you close to the action with excellent sightlines. From first puck drop to final encore, the Peterborough Memorial Centre delivers the kind of energy and atmosphere that keeps fans coming back.

Seating Recommendations and Charts

Peterborough Memorial Centre offers seating for approximately 4,329 guests, with an easy-to-navigate bowl-style configuration and a mix of reserved and general admission options for concerts and events. Before you buy, check the Peterborough Memorial Centre seating chart to compare views in the lower bowl, elevated sides, and floor configurations.

• Center Ice (Sections 8–10): These prime sections are highly recommended for hockey, offering excellent sightlines to both ends and face-off circles. Choose lower rows to feel the intensity up close without sacrificing the full-ice perspective.

• Lower Bowl Near the Glass: If you love the speed and physicality of hockey or the energy of lacrosse, lower bowl seats near the glass put you right in the action. Expect a thrilling, immersive experience with crisp views of play.

• Elevated Side Sections: For concerts and multi-event nights, the elevated sides along the bowl deliver a balanced, panoramic view of the stage or playing surface. These seats are ideal if you want a full-room perspective with strong sightlines.

• Floor Seating (Concerts): For touring acts and special shows, floor seating puts you closest to the performers. If you prefer a broader view of the stage production, consider the lower elevated sides instead.

• VIP Suites & Club Seating: Enjoy premium comfort and a more private experience with suite and club options. These areas are perfect for groups, special occasions, or a night out with extra amenities.

Use Ticket Purchase’ interactive seating chart to view live seat availability, compare prices, and choose the section that fits your experience.
