Rated out of 5
The Raptors game was an electrifying experience with fast-paced action and lots of crowd interaction. Fans were fully engaged throughout, with in-game prompts keeping the energy high. During intermissions, the dancing and performances added an extra layer of excitement, with breakdancers and hip-hop crews getting everyone involved. It was a fun, dynamic atmosphere that made for an unforgettable night! Highly recommend attending!

Great visit for an event, the washrooms are nice but like any sporting event center the food prices are high. If anything the union is right out front.
Security is also very tight here which honestly is good.

Great venue for a basketball game. While it was under renovation, the shop stalls were still open. Very accessible to Union Station, with a direct exit into the train station. I'd recommend seeing a Raptors or Leafs game here. I found Raptors games to be quite fairly priced, and it was a pretty family-friendly environment.
