Is it cold watching Ice Hockey?

We are very lucky at Milton Keynes Planet Ice as the rink is not that cold.  A coat and a jumper are usually the perfect combination to keep you warm. The great thing about the arena watching Ice hockey is that you are guaranteed the same “weather” every time!  No rain, and a bit cold so you can come prepared.

Where do Disabled people sit at the Ice Hockey in MK?

Most of the seating in the stands is accessed via steps.  Planet Ice does have a lift that can access the bar, and the restaurant.  This also provides a level access to G in block 4. We also have an area by the plexi glass, that the floor is higher, so you can sit and watch the match in your wheelchair.  Tickets for this area are sold as CA and WC.  Due to the limited space in this area we request that you buy a ticket for the wheelchair user, and 1 carer only.  All other members of the party [...]

Can you stand at the side of the rink to watch Ice Hockey in MK?

Yes, we have standing spaces around the rink.  Look out for the Season ticket reserved stickers on the barrier, these spaces are sold for the whole season.  All other standing tickets are sold on a first come first served basis, you can stand  anywhere there is not a reserved sticker.  (The number on your standing ticket does not relate to a space in the rink). There are more spaces on the sides of the rink, and head up towards block 7 for lots of spaces. You need to buy a “Standing ticket” when asked what ticket to buy.

Where is good to sit at an Ice hockey match in Milton Keynes?

Seating or standing - its a personal preference, but we can give you an idea of where things are located. MK Lightning attack towards the entrance twice, so blocks 13, 14, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 are the most popular. Block 2 is closest to the bar, and block 3 above the cafe. Block 13 is over the players benches, whereas block 6 is opposite if you want to see the players changing their lines (More about the game here). Blocks 1, 2, 3, 9 10 and 11, are behind a net to stop flying pucks. Block 11 [...]

Is Ice Hockey a Family Friendly Sport?

Yes, 100% Ice Hockey is a family friendly sport.  We welcome everyone with open arms, away fans included.  Ice Hockey has a different crowd to some sports, old, young, home or away fans, you are all welcome to watch. While Ice hockey has a bit of a reputation for fighting (and that’s not to say there won’t be fights), these will be limited to on the ice.

How long does a hockey match last?

Ice hockey is played over 3 x 20 minute periods with an ice resurfacing between them. The clock stops for penalties too, so expect a full to take between 2 and 2 and a half hours.
