Montclair State Ice Arena

Situated on a beautiful 252 acre suburban college campus, just 12 miles from New York City, The Montclair State Arena, recently acquired by the University, has been a pillar in the community for over 20 years. Hosting over half a million guests annually, the facility boasts two full NHL sized arenas, a performance training and rehab center, a full service pro shop and local café. 

The Arena is home to the MSU Men’s & Women’s Ice Hockey Teams, the NWHL’s Metropolitan Riveters, as well as the training home to many Olympic & National Level Figure Skating Participants and Medalists. The Montclair Blues Recreational and Travel Youth Hockey Organization is home to over 450 families for both boys and girls hockey from 8 and Under to U19 players, and calls the Montclair State Arena home, along with many local high school hockey teams, including Seton Hall Prep. 

Many student run activities take place at the arena, along with long-standing community based programs and instruction. Students are involved at the arena, not just as skaters and hockey players,  but also as coaches, competitors, staff and guests.

Prior to the University taking over the arena, Firland was commissioned to consult on the purchase and valuation. This later developed into our current role handling full day to day management of the facility when the University acquired the arena.
