Prime Arena was in Montreal at the Canadian launch of Ireland’s International Sports Diplomacy Framework with Minister Neale Richmond, as part of growing sporting ties between Ireland and Canada.

A group of past and current NHL players — including Stanley Cup champions and Hall of Fame talent — has invested in Prime Arena, a significant endorsement of plans for Ireland’s first permanent Olympic-standard ice facility and ice hockey team.

Prime Arena Holdings completed a three day Canada engagement programme across Toronto and Ottawa, meeting leaders in sport, government, business and culture to advance international collaboration on Ireland’s first Olympic standard ice and multi purpose arena.
