Canada Life Centre — visitor guide
Canada Life Centre sits on the old Eaton's site on Portage Avenue in downtown Winnipeg, and it's been the Jets' home since the franchise returned in 2011. The bowl was designed so every sightline lands on the ice, and the building hums on game nights. In winter, duck into the downtown walkway; several nearby parkades connect straight to it.
