About National Guard Armory Of Jersey City
The National Guard Armory Of Jersey City is a storied indoor arena housed in a repurposed National Guard facility. Located at 678 Montgomery Street in Jersey City, NJ, this large venue sits near Journal Square and serves as a flexible space for sports, exhibitions, and community events. With an interior spanning roughly 175,000 square feet, it stands as the largest armory in New Jersey and has hosted memorable events from historic boxing cards and fundraising exhibitions to MMA events and art fairs. When you’re planning a visit, you’ll find practical details on seating, parking, transit options, and nearby hotels and dining to help secure your seats with ease.
While the armory is commonly referred to as the Jersey City Armory, it remains an active venue without a formal demolition or renaming. Seating is arranged along two sides of the drill hall, and public seating charts aren’t publicly published, so we recommend confirming sightlines at the time of purchase. Parking isn’t available on-site, but multiple parking lots are within a comfortable walking distance. The venue is exceptionally accessible via mass transit, including adjacent to the Journal Square Transportation Center with PATH connections and NJ Transit Bus route 9 stopping at Montgomery Street. For a convenient visit, consider nearby hotels like the Hyatt Regency Jersey City on the Hudson and The Westin Jersey City Newport, with recommended dining options nearby to enhance your experience. We’ve got connections to trusted hotels and restaurants to help you secure comfortable accommodations and reliable pre- or post-event meals.
