Beautiful-looking and clean arena. Lots of food choice too. Over-priced, but aren't all arenas?

Amazing sound here! Be sure that you check out Monday Night RAW! ????????

It's so incredibly expensive to eat or drink here- like all sports stadiums . Gets to be a little too much if you're money-conscious. Pregame and drink after. :)

Great for concerts ! Lines moved fast thanks to numerous places to get refreshments and quality staff .

Brooke Raeker

Head down to the Club Grill near the main doors on the first level for a nacho helmet. Five different kinds, most with chicken . Delicious!

Mallorie Greiner

The Xcel Energy Center is a beautiful and fun arena. Wild games are fun and everyone is super pumped. Stuff is very friendly and helpful.

Minnesota is hockey heaven. If you’re not convinced of this fact, check out the jerseys from every single high school in Minnesota hanging on the concourse walls.

Definitely see a Jets @ Wild game . Great crowd!

When you can, get Club Level seats . Better/healthier dining options, can run a tab at the bar and less crowded .

Tim Kindem

The hot chocolate is really great. Brings me back to being a squirt and getting it out of an automatic vending machine at various hockey arenas around the state . Ah memories ...

NHL

Fanatic Fact: The Wild entered the NHL as an expansion franchise in the 2000-2001 season, making it the first NHL franchise in Minnesota since the North Stars left for Dallas in 1993.

Even 200 level seats have great sight lines . There isn't a bad seat in the house.

If you ever get a chance to see the wild play do so. Always have a good time at the xcel center

Easy access parking at the Science Museum . Use the skyway and you don't need to walk outside!

The 39th Republican presidential nominating convention was held September 1–4, 2008 at the Xcel Energy Center in St. Paul. Arizona Senator John McCain received the presidential nomination

Club level seating still has a decent view . Clean restrooms and facilities.

Check out the Xcel Energy Puck Wall near Section 124. You can still add your name to the wall if you would like! Stop by the Community Relations booth near that section for more information.

For Wild games , the United Hospital lot parking is only $10 and you can sneak away from exit traffic jam by heading west on Grand up to Crocus Hill .

Awesome Venue for Wild Games and great concert acoustics

The main box office entrance is the easiest entrance

The restrooms are some of the most sanitary I have ever seen in an arena. The staff deserves props.

Some new food added by Levy in 2010. Organic Turkey Burger & Veggie burgers are terrible but the Funnel Fries with maple frosting for dipping are fantastic!

The xcel is very nice, clean and the staff was really helpful and nice!

Great view from the bud light VIP lounge .

Watch out for Punchy. He's in Madonnas dressing room. Smelling things. Waiting. Watching.
