    Great event space and I love that most of the seats have backs to them verses just stadium seating. My only gripe is that the food is soooo expensive. All comps are pricey, but a small bag of popcorn was almost $6. Really? That's crazy!

    Great sight lines, easy access, a large sheet of ice. Not sure what more you could want in a college hockey arena.

    It has to be difficult to be the Portland Expo building. You're over a hundred years old, and maybe…read morearen't as cool as some of the other venues around town, or are rockin' the best amenities in the world, or get the chance to host the hippest events, or are even located in a trendy neighborhood, but you're there. Ever present. Doing the dirty work that makes our great city keep on keepin' on. So, hats off to you, Portland Expo. Thanks for being a really excellent polling place. And for being a great spot for our high schools to play and graduate. We appreciate the Red Claws and the Maine Roller Derby. Sometimes you get boxing or beer festivals, comic or mom and baby expos, home shows or car shows; that's pretty badass how you cater to just about every demographic. And Snoop Dogg? Remember that? Whoa. The point is, in the words of Billy Joel: don't go changing to try and please me; you never let me down before." Everything's changing these days, technology is making things speed up at an insane rate, and everyone's trying to top everyone else. But you do you. It's worked for over a century, and - while your parking can be annoying and your bathrooms not always the cleanest - we're always going to need a place like yours to do the normal things, the every day things, the nitty gritty things.

    Clean, organized. Food is not badly priced. Most items are $5 or less. French fries, nachos,…read morepopcorn $3. Beer is $5 for domestic Budlight. $6 for Microbrews. Plenty of toilets. They also utilize the restrooms from the SeaDogs stadium when needed.

    This has been a venue I can remember going to even as a kid. From countless hockey games cheering…read moreon the local team at the time Portland Pirates. From coming here for my first concert ever to see Three Days Grace and Breaking Benjamin. Since then i have come here for more concerts than I can even count or remember. In some manners you can see the age of this place but it still is a solid option to attend a hockey game (Maine Mariners instead of Pirates now) or a concert/event. Due to its smaller size you can't really have a bad seat. Even what would be classified as "nose bleeds" here don't compare to major areas/stadiums. One issue I do wish were better here and just in general better for events would be the prices for food/drink. Like most places that host events they are too high. Parking is easy enough with options of street parking and parking garages nearby. Recently my wife and I attended the first televised professional wrestling event since 1997. All Elite Wrestling (AEW) put on an amazing show and strictly speaking in terms of their show it would be a five star but overall the venue could use some updating. Despite that if they are hosting an event/concert you want to see it I would reccomend going.

    We went to the Maine Mariners hockey game. This is really fun!! There were tons of families with…read moreyoung children. Lots of great music and energy. After the first period, a group of Casco Bay youth hockey players came onto the ice to play a 'game'. We were gifted the tickets so I am not sure how much it would've cost. We found nearby free on street parking.
