Renee BaroneJune 23, 2015The Bob Seger concert was great! The sound was fabulous. It's walking distance from the Omni William Penn. drinks were a little high in price but they were great! The staff was very helpful and polite
- Steve ChildressSeptember 14, 2014Really good concert venue. We had a small seating issue, guest services got us taken care of quickly, easily, and in a professional, kind manner.
- Not a bad seat in the place! GREAT stadium seating... just be ready to buy $8 beers and know there is NOWHERE to smoke (no balconies/outdoor areas)
visitPAMarch 30, 2015The Pittsburgh Penguins play at CONSOL Energy Center®, the country's first LEED® Gold Certified major sports venue. Recently, the team was named by Forbes magazine as having the NHL’s best fans!
Arrive early and visit the top level for a Burgatory burger before the game. Don't forget the fries... and take the time to seek out a Yuengling on draft.
Jason H.April 17, 2016Really nice, comfortable arena with lots of great seats and good food options. Fans are nice and welcoming to out of town guests.
Painting with a TwistJune 21, 2013The Consol is a fantastic state of the art arena. Something Pittsburgh has needed for quite some time. The Pens have an absolutely great venue. Bring us home another CUP! Let's go Pens!
A really nice stadium. Clean and easy to get around. Great for Pens games but equally as good for the NCAA basketball games.
ESPNApril 18, 2012During playoff games, home and away games are shown on the big screen outside the arena. It’s an unreal atmosphere to cheer for a Pens victory.
Lara HoenshellJanuary 21, 2015The customer service heee is top notch! I'm in a wheelchair and they go above and beyond to assist me with anything I need!!!!
Gene BMarch 31, 2014Good place to park for game is the open air parking lot at intersect of Grant St&Forbes Av. I paid $5 for Sun nite gm. <10 min walk.Felt safe walking back at night. Rate near the Center was $20-25.- Renee BaroneJune 23, 2015The drinks were good! The escalator was broken when we got there used step leaving. Very crowed place. Had a blast at the Stones concert!
Matt SzaboSeptember 27, 2011Great atmosphere for hockey. Big names and lots of talent on the ice. Great for hockey games and other events. I've seen multiple concerts here and they have been a phenom.
Beautiful facility! Not a bad seat in the place! If you want to check out the giant Goalie Mask there's less of a crowd after the game when everyone's making a mad dash to get out of there!- There's not a bad seat in the house. This arena deserves all of the awards it has received. A great arena for hockey.
Good sight lines for basketball. Unique food options. Pot-roast poutine paired with sports--yum!- ESPNMarch 13, 2012This is the first time CONSOL has hosted the NCAA Tournament, but across the street in the old "Igloo", the #15 Coppin State Eagles knocked off #2 South Carolina in 1997.
Kristopher WeissJanuary 18, 2016Concerts sound horrible. Sold naming rights to everything, every level, gate and even the box office. Opened doors late to 2016 Boss concert, which led to a crush and people banging on doors - scary.
D ™September 3, 2023One of the craziest names that I ever traveled to and I work for the WWE! 11 years strong! 🫡🤙🏽
Home of the Pittsburgh Penguins! Not a bad seat in the house.
Joel TortorielloAugust 25, 2017Pens everything, took the tour with Joanne; she was awesome. The arena was incredible!
Rob WilhoitFebruary 25, 2012This place has it all. They have hockey games, basketball games and national touring musicians and comedians. A great environment.
Put your trash in the appropriate receptacle. So easy! Thanks.
Head to Jimmy Ds, 1707 E Carson St in SouthSide, for the Pens game after party and Holiday Hangover! $2 Coors Light, $2.50 Captain & $2.50 Smirnoff 10PM-Mid! Every Tuesday!
Gail BouvyMay 13, 2014If you are handicapped they will take you up in elevator. They also have wheelchairs. Everyone there is exceptionally helpful.
Welcome to the home of the most exciting team in Hockey. Look around the arena their in plenty of Penguins history around you.

Great venue for hockey and concerts! Not a bad seat in the house.
Thomas CoxJuly 30, 2018Nice venue, been to a couple of shows there. Fleetwood Mac and more recently the Foo Fighters.
Julie McDonoughMay 24, 2013The seating for hockey games are great, but it's wonderful for concerts...great acoustics!
Eve McGivernSeptember 17, 2010Eat before the show. Hot dogs were $7, soda $4 for 20 oz., water $3, and chips about the same. $22.50 for 2 hot dogs, 2 non-alcoholic drinks and a bag of chips. Beer and alcohol runs about $7 each.
- Try to get row A in the upper bowl for extra leg room. Acoustics are a bit questionable when not mixed properly.
American Eagle OutfittersMarch 6, 2012Head right inside the American Eagle Gate and snap a pic with your favorite players by the American Eagle board. Share on Twitter with #aestudentrush. -Cassie, Social Media Coordinator
Kevin NovoaMarch 1, 2016If you have kids make sure to pay the $100 to meet iceburgh. My daughter loved it.
The Penguins of course! Burgatory runs a good second!
Randy ForebackNovember 1, 2010Be sure to wear some head gear with a chin strap so that you aren't injured by having your jaw hit the floor when you see this place for the first time. Awe inspiring.
- d williamsSeptember 26, 2010coming from out of town? stay at the Marriott...good socializing before the event and sweet walk across the street. oh -- and great women's bathroom here =]
Go pens! Beer could be cheaper but I just drink before the game so it's all good!
