Bentley Arena

The 76,000 square foot facility was designed by Architectural Resources Cambridge and built by Suffolk Construction. Construction was completed in 2018.

• 1,400 solar panels on the roof, which provide 40% of the building’s annual electricity needs

• High-efficiency lighting and water-saving bathroom fixtures

• A glass-walled function room that offers upscale space for a range of community and campus events

• State-of-the-art locker rooms for home and visiting hockey teams, equipment rooms, weight rooms and a sports medicine center

• A grand staircase to the upper lobby where a second-floor concourse enables people to gather

• A student-run media control room that includes 10 high-definition cameras to capture all the live action and curate content for the Jumbotron.

• An outdoor plaza built with permeable pavers to reduce stormwater runoff and encourage infiltration into the adjacent wetlands

• Preferred parking spots for electric and fuel-efficient/low-emission vehicles

During the construction process, at least 20% of the materials contained recycled content and came from local sources; and more than half of the wood used was Forest Steward Council certified.

Visitors can access Bentley Arena via the Bentley shuttle South Campus which is a 5 minute walk to the arena. The South Campus stop is accessible by both routes, B-Line and Waverley Express. Visitors must present a printed or e-ticket to board the bus.

The Hub for both routes is located at the Falcone cirlce by Lots #2 and #3. Parking is free at these lots during games and are best accessed through the Forest Street entrance.

The B-Line is optimal for weekday and Friday games but does not run on Saturday. The Waverly Express runs during Saturday games. Shuttle information may be found at Bentley.transloc.com. You can also download the app on your Apple or Android device by searching Transloc Rider in the appropriate App Store.
