About Idaho Central Arena

Idaho Central Arena sits in the heart of downtown Boise, Idaho, offering a versatile space for hockey, basketball, concerts, and events like Front Street Fights. With permanent seating for 4,508 and higher capacity for specific configurations (hockey 5,002; basketball 5,732; center-stage concerts up to 6,800), it’s designed to host a wide range of performances and community events. The venue is connected directly to The Grove Hotel, a AAA Four Diamond property, making it easy to combine a night out with comfortable lodging. Whether you’re catching the Idaho Steelheads in action or enjoying a big-name concert, we’ve got you covered with practical tips on seating, parking, transit, and nearby dining and lodging.

Parking is convenient but limited on-site; there are multiple city garages nearby, and The Grove Hotel offers valet and accessible options. For public transportation, Valley Regional Transit provides routes to downtown Boise, and Game Day Shuttle services help fans reach the arena on event days. After the show, explore nearby dining options and stay close by at The Grove Hotel or Hotel 43 Boise. We’ve highlighted affiliate hotel and restaurant partners to help you secure reliable, easy arrangements for your visit. If you’re planning an event, the arena’s downtown location makes it a practical hub for fans and attendees alike.
