Miguel GonzalezNovember 4, 2018Plan to arrive early as NYCB Live will not have enough security entrances to assure anything less than a 30 minute waitUpvoted Sep 20
It's always been my favorite local venue. The renovations included widened concourses, HD screens and brand new comfortable seats. It has great aesthetics to enjoy making memories at The New Coliseum.
Lyn HastingsFebruary 18, 2015Experienced the barn for the first time and saw an epic hockey battle. It's got grungy charm and history. Definitely fun to experience the crowd.
Coliseum MarketMay 26, 2013There is a Market Fair every weekend that has hundreds of vendors with vintage clothing, jewelry, re-purposed furniture to home decor, collectibles and antiques as well as activities for the kids!
Peter RothJanuary 4, 2019Terrible venue, terrible customer service, and a real ripoff for parking fee. Go to MSG
when pulling up for a game don't forget to honk your horn once, then again, then three times real quick...."one, two, one-two-three"......LET'S GO ISLANDERS!
Old and outdated arena. small crowds for hockey on the weekdays but on the weekends it gets crowded. im really gonna miss this place so sad to see my team leave but the arena will be renovated.
Louis MattaSeptember 24, 2017A nice/smaller change of pace from the major NYC venues. Isn't as much a hike to get to your seats, and acoustics are a major upgrade from its predecessor.
Great Place to see a hockey game and the pretzel braids are the best. Gonna miss the Old Barn next season
Join us in raising money to help the families of the victims of the tragic Lokomotiv plane crash. Look for tables on the concourse during home games to purchase a Love for Lokomotiv bracelet. Read more- Paul GheduzziFebruary 13, 2020Here is a great tip for you. Be sure to tell Eric Bordin to look at himself in the mirror for the definition of a classless fan base.
Russell WaltuchFebruary 5, 2013Moving to Brooklyn will be stupid. What hockey fans are in Brooklyn. It's a smaller stadium, it's in a bad neighborhood, and it's not on Long Island so it can't be the islanders so just don't move.
Neil GApril 14, 2017Went for the open house. They improved seating, now have one of my favorite local beers on tap, Long Ireland.
vanessa lopezFebruary 16, 2015When you sit in the pit or sections 100's They assist you with your seats. But when you sit in sections 200's or 300's they don't care to help you find your seats at all.
NHLOctober 5, 2010Fanatic Fact: The Islanders selected Denis Potvin from the Ottawa 67's (OHL) with the first overall pick in 1973. Potvin would go on to captain the Isles to four consecutive Stanley Cup Championships.
David AbishMarch 27, 2015Great place to watch hockey. Shame the Islanders are moving to Brooklyn...so may great memories there- The first event in the arena was a NY Nets Basketball game on February 11, 1972. The Nets played at the Coliseum from 1972-77 and won American Basketball Association Championships in 1974 & 1976.
Guyetri PSeptember 16, 2014I went to see the Pitbull/Enrique Iglesias concert on 9/14/2014 I was quite surprised with the $30.00 parking fee. With all this money collected it is terrible that the Coliseium can't be fixed up.
TurboApril 29, 2012Small old school venue. Makes me glad I'm a Rangers fan with a building in the modern ages as opposed to a building stuck in the 80s. Let's Go Rangers
So many great memories of this place. LI won't be the same without it.
The Capital GrilleSeptember 17, 2013Watch the Islanders in Executive Suite style. Enjoy hosting 8-20 guests with professional catering after you receive VIP parking.
A Thousand TorchesJuly 23, 2011Warped Tour: Make sure to catch @MC_Lars with @Weerd_Science 2:00 pm on the Skullcandy stage and Weerd Science (aka Josh Eppard) drumming in @TerribleThings 5:45 today at the Ernie Ball Stage!

Remember to drink plenty of beer...so you forget the crappy condition of the coliseum! LOL
This is one of the greatest Coliseum with lots of good memories.
For close to 8 dollars, you can get 3 chicken tenders with no fries. Be forewarned.
Be sure to stick around for the annual Burger Conquest birthday bbq in the VIP parking lot. http://burgerconquest.blogspot.com/2009/07/warped-tour-at-nassau-coliseum-in.html
Bobby Smith was born in Perth Ontario and played for the Ottawa 67's
Tony PFebruary 20, 2012The Islanders need a new home. Can be a bit overwhelming for a fan of a visiting team...depending on the team though
Kristina G.✨January 19, 2013The cheap seats are the best. Just watch for the low ceilings and drunk cabbies.
lindsay churchAugust 4, 2011Most people don't know about the restaurants and bars downstairs. Ana and Annie are the best concession girls.
The Coliseum may be the worst arena in the NHL by far, but it's home. Plenty of good memories here. Let's go Islanders!
Tim LevinJuly 9, 2013The Mausoleum is a DUMP!! But I don't mind getting to watch my Rangers beat up on he fish sticks for a cheap price!! LETS GO RANGERS
