Ford Hall in Rogers Place

Ford of Canada has sponsored the Edmonton Oilers for over 15 years and is thrilled to be a part of the new Rogers Place. Previously known as Wintergarden, Ford Hall pays tribute to Ford of Canada and is the grand atrium entrance to Rogers Place. Ford Hall acts as a gathering spot for fans both before and after events, and it will also host multiple stand-alone events throughout the year.

“Ford of Canada has been a proud partner of the Edmonton Oilers for many years, and along with the Edmonton-area Ford Dealers, we are excited to be a part of this new beginning. We look forward to supporting the team and the city of Edmonton for years to come.”

– Jim Hartford, vice president of marketing at Ford of Canada

At Sherwood Ford, we are also thrilled to be a part of Rogers Place, not only as a local Ford dealership, but also as fans of the Edmonton Oilers. And we look forward to the opening of Rogers Place this September!
