Hamilton Arena
In November 2023, Oak View Group (OVG), Hamilton Urban Precinct Entertainment Group (HUPEG), and the City of Hamilton announced that they have signed a deal to begin major renovations on FirstOntario Centre, a venue that will be the centerpiece in revitalizing the city’s position as a premier music, sports and entertainment destination for southwestern Ontario in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area. Hamilton Arena (Formerly FirstOntario Centre) is now closed and undergoing renovations, and is not open to the public. Construction will be completed in Fall 2025.
