Reviews of Central Energy Trust Arena

Awesome place to be to see some good dirt track racing. Good food vendors. Always enjoy it evertime I visit with the family.

I attended the Brick Show. Manawatu came inside with a large model of the wind turbines and the Feilding clock tower. There was a COVID-19 tracer QR Code to scan on the door. Those taking the money at the entrance to the hall were friendly and attentive. The rooms looked clean and spacious. The walls were decorated with Lego posters and banners which looked good. The tables had been laid out with plenty of room for visitors to move around. The toilets were clean but not very private with cubicle doors a step away from the foyer door. There was no soap or towels in the disabled cubicle.

They had set up a covid vaccination drive thru. Followed the cones. First guy was happy, dancing a little to keep himself in good spirits...the next guy was great too...and the Maori Warden woman. Medical Staff were friendly....patient...My daughter was going through. They ran out ..so had a bit of a wait. When she was done ...we moved our vehicle to a waiting area before releasing us. I'm a driving instructor.. I don't stop too close to the vehicle infront...I leave myself an out ...the lady, maybe Maori ..as she had a maoritanga flag on it, did not look happy, but grumpy face, motioned me to move closer, for her I did , but it wasn't sufficient to her...and no...there wasn't heaps of cars at that time. I understand why ..I wasn't gonna go too close ..u did have a cushion boundary i was not prepared to cross..if I was motioned to move any closer.. part from that experience it was ok.

Spent an absolutely great night with family at the NZ, USA, and England super stock and super saloons championship races. Great venue. Reasonable prices. Excellent place to visit.

Awesome. Stockcars team champs 🏆. Seating & rows very close together not much room if you have a large person sitting beside you. But awesome facilities. Lots of hand sanitizer.

Local fish n chips shop. Always good. Good fresh fish and everything else tasty as well. Highly recommend

Best stockcar track & facilities in New Zealand and I come from Wellington a must do if you have any form of petrol in your blood

Came here to have my Covid jab. Nice and tidy arena. Well maintained. Would definitely attend an event here.

Basketball courts well appointed with comfortable and roomy seating available for supporters and spectators. Great to see referees of all ages and even more so up and coming sports women and men of the future ... scorers could pay attention ....

Went to watch my grand daughter play netball on a Saturday. Awesome venue.

I play badminton here every Thursday. They've got 12 badminton court in one building and more in the other building, so it is nice because you don't have to wait long for the courts. The toilet is clean too. They have water fountain for drinking too.

I like to come here every XMAS with my family. Lot of fun and joys.

Speedway is the best sport in NZ, and Palmy has the best track in the country

There for Armageddon . If Anime is your thing then that was the main attraction. Comic books and gaming. $15 to get in? $10 would be a fair price.

I took my son to the Covid19 Vaccine Center here and it was great.

Central Energy Trust Arena Palmerston north. Great studium for many sports. It is also clean and tidy. The stadium has been Recently upgraded and updated nearly a quarter of it.

Went to the home show there today. Well marked spacious parking lots. Signage is great everywhere. Plenty of bathrooms.

Great venue with many uses and a variety of displays and events. Lego this weekend wsd great

Went to get Covid shots... Has changed since the last time I was there, it's so much nicer now.

Plenty of parking, close to shops, trains and the beautiful sea front, about a ten minute walk

Great entertainment when they are able to operate

Great for the events, I wish covid-19 wasn't here so I could watch sports and socialize.

Thank you Manawatu Creative Fibre. Fabulous 50th Anniversary Festival. Well done

3rd visit in as many years for a Speedway event. Slight changes on entry with no spectator entrance now on Cuba Street, that was okay as we parked closer to the side street entrance. Sat on the terraces opposite grandstand this time. You get a true feeling there as the cars are a lot closer. Event was run smoothly although the cars were running for quite a few laps prior to green so a number of races were cancelled to allow for the demo derby to be run, this was started actually after 10:30pm. We started at 6:30pm so it was a long night.

Mixed emotions, awesome track awesome racing #upthebusters

Was there for Stockcars - stadium was good, but it is a bit hit and miss for seating - some seats are better than others! This year our seating was not so great... also no rose wine!

Awesome team, no probs, easy as. Chur

Location awesome... Grounds perfect.. Parking space... Get there early enough and you'll get a great park.

Very large multi purpose sports facility offering both outdoor field and indoor courts. Well appointed and maintained

It was a lovely evening and the stock cars were great. Affordable prices for a large family. First time we could all go out all together.

Great place for all types of entertainment

Visited for Teams championship. Will be back again next year. Such a fantastic atmosphere. Plenty of seating and a well organized venue

Great way to do Xmas parade👍

Brick show June 5/6 very impressive displays, a great family day out.

Went to the Home Show here. Great venue, nice and large but not cold like such large spaces can be. Seemed to be good facilities too

Went to the home show today and was impressed with the layout and exhibitors. Was good to have a look at a couple of cats too. Very excited with Palmfields display and the Subaru Impreza XV, although the Mazda CX3 looked good beside it. My wife enjoyed all the house stuff and we made a stop at Riks for his Belgium truffles, delicious. The cookie time girl scored a sale too. Took a gander at the Suzuki Swift Sport and stopped at the Honda stand too. See house shows have something for everyone.

Always well maintained and clean. Have been many times for different events and always very helpful with any enquiries

Attended a netball tournament. Lovely venue.

Great venue to watch stock cars and club rugby and concerts the money that they have spend.has made it better for the manawatu community

Easy to get to, friendly vax staff

Very nicely set up, loved the Lego display

Great complex love the atmosphere here wether it be stock cars of a sports event love it. The arena holds a great array of events every year, i just went to the food show today all the stalls the people were fantastic and freindly and not shy of tasters 5 stars keep up the good work.

Will be an awesome purpose built arena for stockies primarily when work is completed. The pit area is particularly impressive.

Good facilities for the whole family. Fair rules on what you can and can't bring in with you, so it pays to check first. (No commercially prepared food, Sealed 1.5L water or under 500ml sealed soft drink per ticket holder) Bag checks apply so be prepared. We were there for the Stockcars finale of the season and fireworks, the night dragged on for too long, too much was on the card for the night 4.5 hours for young kids is a long time to wait for fireworks.

Great speedway events, Facebook page could be more up to date regarding cancellation possibilities etc but otherwise a great night out!

Nice place, came for Eid namaaz at the Arena. Nice arrangement and parking space

Great grandstand good racing

Watched the stock cars. Friggin loud underneath the grandstand and the seats are way too close, you need to stand up to let people through or the people behind you wack your head, nuisance people.

Good place to watch speedway, not so much rugby as the field is quite far from the crowd due to the stockcar track. Food is quite expensive but that's normal for stadium food. Otherwise, this place is ok for Palmy

Amazing great place so clean too

Nice place. Went there for Kapa Haka Nationals. Spacious seating, air con was on so it wasn't hot and stuffy sitting in there. Loads of parking space. Food bit on the expensive side though. Beta to take your own or go into shopping centre round the corner.

Good fun loved it

Awesome place, carters for many sports close to city centre

Such a great Venue but please tell me the lack of toilets issue is going to be addressed

Needs a refurbish... Don’t buy alcohol as in my experience it was dated stock that was warm, shame you don’t have the option of better quality - Shame..

Just wanted to say staff at Arena 2 at the Globetrotters were awesome. Left a couple of items behind and they found them straight away and waited until I could come back and pick them up.

Great venue for competitions! Just wished they open the coffee place

The sporting hub of palmerston north,,,, with indoor and outdoor sporting facilities

Super stock teams champs awesome the improvements are amazing especially when it's finished

I attended the New Zealand Sprint car champs here. Pure entertainment.

A big place. Awesome space. Many different areas. Can be very cold in winter.

Great venue, but 1/2 of every court was really really dusty, like someone forgot to sweep 1/2 the building.

Food is not very nice an overpriced especially as they have banned any outside commercial food coming in...only saving grace is the other food trucks they let in.

Great facility and know they have an artificial turf as well

Not very comfortable seating for general public
