Tavern '96 At Bridgestone Arena

Man for the amount of people they can pile in here they for sure know how to do it efficiently. One of the better experiences for coming to an event here. Parking in the area is not the greatest but that is not arenas problem. Yes, beer is expensive but you’ll still pay for it. I’ve sat in all different locations in here and honestly there isn’t a real bad view from above.

Beautiful arena, fairly modern. Very good seats on the lower bowl, albeit tight on leg space. Predators always sold out and crowd is loud. Good food options, but mostly stadium food (not a lot of healthy options). If you walk around you'll discover a lot more vendors and stalls. Smooth entry, no delays.

Thank you Bridgestone Arena for giving one of, if not the best live sport experiences of my life. The stadium initially felt small but when the crowd started to fill up and people started doing chants man it got loud in there! The food was good, services were upto the mark and the people working there were really helpful. Amazing experience!

First time I’ve ever been to this arena, we watched a Predators game and it was really awesome. The arena feels smaller than some I’ve been to but it is not lacking in food or drinks. Everything was well kept and neat, the seats were comfy. We sat in lower bowl section 116 and had a really good view of the rink. Would definitely recommend to another friend and will be coming back sometime soon!! GO PREDATORS!!!

Visited for the Queen concert. Not a whole lot to say about the venue, it was a typical arena experience. The chairs were perhaps a smidge narrow and the acoustics of the venue weren't anything to praise. There didn't appear to be very many attendants but the one I managed to speak with was very pleasant. The lines for the concessions were excessive, but I've never been to an arena event where they weren't, so that was to be expected. Externally the building looks fine, but the grounds, unfortunately had several homeless people camping on it.

We stayed downtown so we didn't have to worry about parking. Lines went pretty quick. There were a lot of food options inside which was really nice. There were limited access points for floor seating that made getting to our seats more difficult. Kiss was excellent. I wasn't sure what to expect with their advanced age. However, it was evident early on that they were going to be great.
