The 5,100-seat multi-purpose arena features four NHL regulation size ice rinks, a portable FIBA- size basketball court, meeting spaces and more. PFFC is where you’ll find the Raptors 905 basketball team, the Mississauga Steelheads hockey team, and for the 2024-25 season, it will be home to the Toronto Rock lacrosse team. The facility begins renovations in the summer of 2024 upgrading suites, box office, concourse and videoboard assets. AN INTERNATIONAL STAGE With over 500,000-sq.-ft. of flexible space, The International Centre is Mississauga’s largest indoor event venue, hosting athletes from all over Canada and around the world. “November through March, many sports require indoor space,” says Trevor Graham, chief operating officer. “We’ve hosted volleyball, soccer and basketball, and these events can run anywhere from a one-day clinic to a five or seven-day tournament.” ATTRACTIVE ACTIVITIES When it comes to attractions and teambuilding activities, Mississauga has something for everyone.
