Edmonton's arena in the former Oliver neighbourhood

Wîhkwêntôwin (Oliver) Arena is a City of Edmonton indoor rink that carries both names of the neighbourhood around it. Edmonton named the area after Frank Oliver, an early resident, businessman and politician, in 1937. In January 2024 the city's committee on names selected wîhkwêntôwin as the replacement, city council approved the renaming on February 21, and the new name came into effect on January 1, 2025.

The ice measures 190 by 81 feet, and four dressing rooms serve the teams that use it. Spectators watch from a viewing area protected by safety netting, with 50 seats and standing room for another 50. The neighbourhood's community league runs free indoor skating sessions at the arena, alongside the city's own public skating and shinny hockey.
