About Hersheypark Arena

Hersheypark Arena is a historic multi-purpose indoor arena located at 100 West Hersheypark Drive in Hershey, Pennsylvania. With a seating capacity of about 7,225 for hockey and up to ~8,000 for concerts, the venue has hosted iconic moments in sports and entertainment since its early days as the Hershey Bears' home before Giants Center opened in 2002. Today, the arena remains in use for a variety of events and as a link to Hershey’s rich touring past.

Whether you’re catching a concert, a classic hockey game, or a special event, we’ve got you covered with practical details on seating, parking, getting there, and nearby hotel and dining options to make your visit easy and comfortable.

Hersheypark Arena sits within the Hershey entertainment complex, with parking in the surrounding Hersheypark lots and ADA-accessible parking in paved areas. Local transit via Rabbit Transit offers nearby stops, but schedules vary, so check current timetables when planning your trip. For accommodations, nearby options include The Hotel Hershey and Hershey Lodge, both within close reach and offering convenient access to the arena for events. If you’re planning a visit, secure your seats early and consider pairing your trip with other Hershey attractions for a complete experience.

Notable moments: Wilt Chamberlain’s 100-point game (1962), the Ice Capades (1940), and the site of early Hershey Bears hockey. While Giants Center has since become the Bears’ home, Hersheypark Arena remains active for a broad range of events and community activities.
