Pablo Zambrano3 months agoThe Wings Event Center was a great host for the NUWAY National Wrestling Championships. It was an awesome event with some really tough competition. The facility itself is excellent—very clean, including the bathrooms, and there is plenty of seating for everyone. Entry moved quickly and the organization was handled really well. Regardless of the outcomes on the mats, it seemed like everyone was having a great time and there were smiles all around. It's a fantastic venue for such a big event
Randy Cramera month ago4.6 stars. This facility is very nice and very well kept. The ice is always clean cut and has smooth edges around the boards. Whether you are here for a game, an event, or getting some ice time yourself, the staff operates Wings Event Center like a well oiled machine while greeting you with a smile. The $10 open hockey is competitive, yet respectful and fun. There is no online pre-registration for open hockey/stick-and-pucks and there are no pre-payed passes for open hockey/stick-and-pucks. This advocates a first come first serve/pay before you play system. *Update 6-26-2026* Wings Event Center is now a cashless facility.
headgies life5 months agoIt was a great time. Fun environment. Floors were very sticky. It was very cold if there's not a bunch of people, so dress like you're outside in winter.
John R. Pappas (John R Pappas, Realtor)6 months agoAlways fun! Food and BEER can be expensive. Go for the environment and cheer on those KZOO WINGS!!! Also check out their events, as i attended the Bridal Event today. Elite Realty Group had our booth their and met some nice folks.
Sarah Rice4 months agoExpensive food. Expensive entrance fees for events. Bathrooms were not clean and kept. Clear bags only. Doesn't matter if you have a diaper bag, medical condition with a medication bag or need your purse they will not let you enter without a clear bag containing your contents. Very slow exit after events. I've been to the Kwing stadium many times. I dont usually leave bad reviews for places like these. Every year its getting worse. Other than that they hold great events for youth. Thats why I gave it a 2 star.
Bottom line
