Why Take a Taxi from Sherwood Park to Rogers Place?

Rogers Place sits right in the heart of Edmonton’s ICE District, which is excellent for restaurants and pre-game drinks — and terrible for parking. Lots fill early, event pricing kicks in, and the exit crawl after the final buzzer can add a long wait before you even reach Baseline Road.

Door-to-door drop-off. We drop you steps from the gates instead of six blocks away in a paid lot.
