🔨 Behind the Scenes: A First Look at the Hamilton Arena Transformation! 🚧 This week Oak View Group staff welcomed local media to the Hamilton Arena Project for an exclusive tour of the ongoing $280M renovation. What was once FirstOntario Centre is now a bustling construction zone, with EllisDon crews working tirelessly to bring our vision of a modern, world-class entertainment venue to life. The concourse? Completely reimagined. The old style private boxes? Gone, making way for more open, light-filled Premium spaces (selling fast!).
