We came to a Drop Kick Murphys and Pennywise concert. Very friendly and efficient security staff. Tons of concessions open with plenty of food, snack and beverage options. I tried a couple beer from local craft breweries and they were very friendly staff serving us. The signs marking seats might be a little brighter in the main concourse but I'm betting that at a hockey game it's a whole lot brighter in there in general. The displays commemorating former Blades players and highlights are cool as are the decals of past concerts. My biggest complaint, as an average height woman is that the seats are too small and close together. My knees burst from where they were pressed against the seat in front of me for the little time I wasn't dancing. Speaking of dancing, wow when the crowd got going in the seats in the bowl (regular hockey seats) the entire floor would get bouncing. The sound was amazing, the light crews were fantastic and didn't blind the crowd much. read more

SaskTel Centre - Pennywise - Stadiums & Arenas Near Me - Saskatoon, Saskatchewan

I am disappointed in the Sasktel centre. I am only giving the Sasktel centre 2 stars and here are my reasons. 1. Sure the Saskatoon blades WHL hockey team plays there and they are my favourite hockey team in Saskatoon Saskatchewan. 2. The Saskatchewan Rush Lacrosse team plays there as well and ever since they started playing there I've been to a few of their games But here is the thing besides (Hockey and Lacrosse) there is one thing missing! And that is both WWE and AEW. Now I get that over the past few years WWE and AEW have been looking at other major entertainment hub cities in Canada. But I know that Saskatoon Saskatchewan has the potential to become a major major major Entertainment hub so we need Saskatoon Saskatchewan to fork out them big red carpet money transactions with WWE for WWE land over at PrairieLand Park and than at Sasktel Centre we need to host events like Monday Night Raw, Friday Night Smackdown, Saturday Night's Main Event, Clash at the castle, FastLane, Backlash, extreme rules, Wrestlemania! read more

All I want to do is to port my number from Sasktel, the same number I ported to them from Rogers. But no it seems impossible to do, I made necessary payments with them through the phone. I could no longer afford their services as they are quite expensive for me. But now there is a charge for their wifi equipment because I've cancelled that too. The agent had told me I have ten days to send their equipment back to them. My greatest regret is porting to this network to begin with, my life has been on hold since. There has been a lot of hidden charges that I just couldn't afford and I am shocked how a big company like Sasktel is the most expensive of all the other networks and with ridiculous charges like caller identifier fee, 911 call fee, like ridiculous. Anyways I just need to port my number, you can keep your network. They told me or else I would have to pay 200 dollars for re activation, like who does that. After paying almost 200 I must pay another just to port to another network, help me make sense of that. read more

My friend and I were in Saskatoon (having driven down from Edmonton) and went to SaskTel Centre to see the Blades vs Oil Kings WHL game. I gotta say I was pretty impressed by SaskTel Centre. I was also mighty surprised at the size of this venue. I'm from Edmonton and our main (current) hockey area (Rexall Place) is only about 1500 seats bigger than SaskTel Centre. I wasn't expecting to come to a venue with 15,000 seats. I don't know how this venue stacks up for concerts, or anything else, but I'll tell you what I liked about it for a hockey game. 1. Free parking. Maybe this doesn't happen all the time, but there was free parking at the hockey game we were at. It also didn't take 20 minutes to get out of the parking lot... no crazy drivers cutting people off. You Saskatchcats are so nice. 2. No lineups at the box office or will call. My friend and I got in and got our tickets right away. The security check (for purses and such) only took a second. 3. Not that colour scheme would alter the score of this review, but personally I really liked the blue seats. I noticed some the seats had cushioned backs, but even the plastic flip seats my friend and I sat on weren't too bad. There was also a fair bit more legroom than I expected (something I appreciated, being 5'10). 4. Good food options. Arena food tends to be pricey, and kind of similar (burgers, hot dogs, chips, etc), but I was really excited to see a few food options I haven't seen back at Rexall Place in Edmonton like candied apples, mini donuts, and freshly squeezed lemonade. I got some "gourmet" maple bacon mini donuts ($7) which tasted like a delicious pancake breakfast but with mini donuts. It was good, but very sweet and the last few donuts at the bottom basically fell apart from all the maple syrup. I don't know if I'd get it again, but it was a nice treat. 5. Decent merchandise prices. My friend commented that the $40 shirt we saw at the Blades store would have cost about $70 in Edmonton. 5. Friendly staff. Like I said my friend and I came down from Edmonton, and my friend (being an Oil Kings fan) was decked out in an Oil Kings jersey. Despite this there were no tauntings or teasings from Blades fans, and my friend even got a selfie with The Blades mascot. Again, you Saskatchacats are so nice. Ok my one, pretty minor complaint would be the lighting. I'm sure SaskTel Centre is probably using some energy-efficient LED bulbs, but whatever the lightbulbs that were used during the game were super bright, to the point of giving me a bit of a headache (surprisingly the noise level wasn't that bad). If they could've toned the brightness down a tad it would have been perfect. read more

Went to the Metallica show and was surprised the parking was free. at the end of the show, it was so organized, i got out of the lot and on the road in 5 minutes. great venue. read more

This is a great place to watch hockey. We were recently there for the Four Nations Cup, and it was tons of fun. From cute mascots to friendly staff - including those who went out of their way to wish us a safe drive back to the states - it was a great space to visit. read more

I have become a huge fan the capitals when I was 8 years old and now I`m turning 18 this April so I have asked my parents to get the 2018 Washington capitals champions ring read more

Awesome venue for big major concerts and sporting events like the Saskatoon Blades and more

My wife and I went to Metallica this past week . The show was great but the venue wasn't . To start that they only had two security personnel for a big crowd and we were being searched outside. Once in the venue, it was so small that it was nearly impossible to properly walk down the hallways with out being squished , pushed , or hit. The liquor line ups where to long that it took us about 30 min to get beers ( no keg , no tab.. was done by hand opening every bottle and poring it to a cup) One lady told me she was in like for 45 minutes at the merchandise stands and washrooms well one guy pissed his pants because he waited for so long . I mean one urinal and one stall washroom is not appropriate to have . Well we finally get to our seats which wasn't well labeled but by now we're just happy we got to sit down and the show started. Metallica was phenomenal but by now we got thirsty and needed more beers . Went down, waited another 20 min just to find out that the beers stand will close at 9:30 pm! Like the show started at 8:40 ... anyway that's great , went back up to our seats and it was scorching hot ! It got so hot up there that the pipes above us started to sweat and drip on us . Yep disgusting. The concert ended and there was absolutely no cabs , the " taxi line " wasn't there , only party busses and limos. Anyway 2 hours after made it to the hotel. Some of the parking was free , good big lot .. if I knew beers would stop at 9:30 I would've driven aswell Don't think I'll be coming back , Metallica was great read more
