Buffalo Sports Commission

The Buffalo Niagara region is staying competitive by debuting new and updated sports facilities. Harborcenter, a $170 million complex on Buffalo’s waterfront, opened in 2014 and features two NHL-sized rinks for college and amateur hockey tournaments. From baseball, football and soccer fields to swimming pools, basketball courts and hockey rinks, browse the listings below and search by category to find the facility that’s the best fit for you.

The city has undergone a remarkable transformation in recent years, from a redeveloped waterfront and revitalized neighborhoods to a burgeoning craft beer scene and over $1 billion in new investment. Like architecture? Visit seven Frank Lloyd Wright structures. Enjoy art and entertainment? Spend the morning with Charles Burchfield at the Burchfield Penney Art Center. History buff? Relive where President Theodore Roosevelt took the oath of office. Looking for something more casual? Take in the scene at Canalside or Larkin Square. Or check out Niagara Falls. (Yes, THAT Niagara Falls!)

Need help navigating? Our itineraries will help you hit the high points, Buffalo wings (invented at the city’s Anchor Bar) and all!
