Tip: This arena is located at Hersheypark…read more Hersheypark Sports Complex contains Giant Center, which is home arena for the Hershey Bears, which is the American Hockey League (AHL) farm team of the Boston Bruins. The Bears have an amazing winning record. Years ago, when the Manitoba Moose (the AHL farm team of the Winnipeg Jets) was making its playoff run, it had a series against the Hershey Bears. Like the passionate hockey fan that I can be, I did a road trip from Markham to Hershey, PA. I also visited the Hershey store while I was in the city. I love Hershey's chocolate, but I was here for the game. I attended game 4 of the playoffs series. I remember speaking to a parking attendant and paying for parking. She said, "Go, Bears!" to me. She didn't realize that my vehicle had a Ontario licence plate and I was likely cheering for the opponent. I don't recall getting any snacks or drinks during the game. I do recall having a decent view of the rink and being sad that the Moose had lost against the Bears in that game. Bears fans are passionate folks. It was nice to see. One of these days, I'll need to return and take in an AHL game. I wasn't on Yelp back then and didn't take a ton of photos. I will next time. (354)

Season Ticket Holder Perspective (Section 104, Row C, Seats 1 & 2)…read more If you're going to do hockey in Hershey, you do it at the Giant Center and my seats (Section 104, Row C, 1 & 2) are chef's kiss for Hershey Bears games. Three rows off the ice means you feel every hit, hear every skate carve, and occasionally get a good "did-I-just-flinch-at-a-puck?" moment. And if you're lucky you might just get a puck! The view straight across the ice is fantastic. Now... the view down toward the far goal on the right? Yeah, no. The distortion from the glass is rough. It's like watching hockey through a funhouse mirror. You'll catch the general idea but don't expect crystal clarity unless the play comes back your way. Sound System for Bears Games: Let me be blunt... it's aggressively loud. Like "why am I being yelled at by speakers during warm-ups?" loud. If you're sensitive to sound, bring earplugs or prepare to be spiritually tackled by the decibel levels. Concerts: This is where the Giant Center gets unpredictable. Most concerts I've seen here suffer from rough acoustics... muddy sound, too much reverb, and vocals that disappear into a void. BUT Trans-Siberian Orchestra on 11/23/25? Shockingly great. Crisp, powerful, balanced. It was the rare show where the sound team actually tamed the concrete cavern. Parking: Oh boy. Getting in and out is a nightmare. It is chaos every single time. Too many lanes funneling into too few exits. Every event at Hershey Park, Hershey Stadium AND the Giant Center all fighting for the same roads. If you come here often, pack patience and maybe a snack for the car. Food & Concessions: Perfectly average venue fare, nothing amazing, definitely nothing healthy, and priced like it's made of truffles and hopes. You're paying for convenience and location, not culinary excellence. Overall: This is our local go-to venue, and I'll always show up for my Bears and the big touring acts. The energy is great, the games are a blast, and concerts can be magical when the sound behaves. But between the parking mess, inconsistent acoustics, and sensory-overload sound levels at games, it's far from perfect. Still... it's Hershey. It's home. And I'll be back in my same seats next week yelling for the Bears.

The butterfly exhibit alone was worth the repeat visit. The grounds are calming and the view of the amusement park from the gardens is spectacular.

Ok, now I have been to Hershey Gardens both in the winter and when, you know, there are actually…read moreliving plants. As expected, the gardens are beautiful and meticulously well kept. In the middle of all the beauty is a fairly robust play area for the little ones, including a big fake cacao tree! We had a hard time convincing the kids to leave. If you are heading here without kids, then my all means please enjoy a relaxing stroll through the grounds. Years from now I may join you! Also, the butterfly room is worth visiting every time.

All together a wonderful venue!…read more Came here for a Forrest Frank concert and unfortunately got thunderstormed out :( which isn't exactly the Venus fault but something to keep in mind when heading to an outdoor concert. Thankfully the concert got rescheduled to the following day and I was able to experience everything about Hershey stadium. The stadium itself is wonderful, all the seats are great and the sound and screen quality is excellent. Bathrooms are very nice and super easily accessible from the grandstands. I didn't get anything from the vendors but the options looked decently solid, just kinda your basic stadium food.

So they have inconsistent rules. The people in leadership who were female were rude and nasty…read more Holly the liar in green when asked her name would lie to my face She claims nobody has a metal seat but lied about it also. The lady in white said that nobody on her side got seats in but couldn't say others didn't allow them in. The woman were beyond rude and unprofessional. Tim Mcgraw Fiasco Inconsistent Statements: * We don't allow metal seats at all (Chris Stapleton concert had many) * If you get prior approval for medical reasons it's allowed * We don't allow them at all * Nobody currently inside has any * I don't know if anyone got in at a different entry point * If we allow them and you decide to use it as a weapon (only those getting over served alcohol will behave like that) * If something happens you can sue (I could sue if I am sitting on a seat with no back and get injured) * I am not going to continue answering your questions (Holly--who lied when I asked for her name because she didn't want a complaint made) The gentleman we talked to was nothing but polite and professional. Sadly the same can't be said about the two women.

Beware of the dollar dog night promotion. We got to the arena 15 minutes after the game started…read moreand learned that the promotional one dollar hotdog had been sold out in the entire arena. Well, I understand it's only a hot dog my concern is that the lack of either proper planning or integrity of the promotion is realistic. It's disappointing to see an entity like this.

My local favorite ice hockey team. So much fun! I had the fortune of seeing the Bears each season…read moresince I've been about 18. The Hershey Bears (Originally the Hershey Bars) are a professional Ice Jockey team - they've been operating since the 1938-1939 season. Parking usually runs $10/game. My previous employer had a suite at their home arena, The Giant Center. So for the past few years, I had access to that. Other family members are season ticket holders. Tickets can run anywhere from $12.00 for Reese's / Ollie's cheaps seats to up to $100 for seats next to the ice. Always a great family time. #23
