Chilliwack Coliseum is a 5,000-seat multi-purpose arena in Chilliwack, British Columbia, Canada. The venue is the home of the Chilliwack Chiefs of the British Columbia Hockey League and has hosted events such as the Junior A ice hockey championship tournament in 2018, concerts, and trade shows.
The venue opened in 2004 after the Chiefs Development Group and the City of Chilliwack entered into a public-private partnership in 2002 for the financing, design, building and operation of the facility.[1] The facility was originally called the Prospera Centre pursuant to a sponsorship agreement with the Prospera Credit Union. It was renamed the Chilliwack Coliseum in 2019 pursuant to a 5-year agreement with the City of Chilliwack.[2]
In October 2024, the venue hosted the 2024 BCHL showcase with the Abbotsford Centre.[3][4]
The venue was previously owned by the Chilliwack Chiefs' parent company, the Chiefs Development Group. On May 1, 2025, ownership of the venue reverted back to the City of Chilliwack.[5] Chiefs Development Group will continue to manage operations of the facility until May 1, 2026 while the city works on a transition plan between CDG and current tenants.[1]
The arena was the home of the Chilliwack Bruins of the Western Hockey League from 2006 until their relocation to Victoria in 2011 where they became the Victoria Royals.[6]
