Where Hitmen home games are played
The Hitmen’s site gives the home arena as “Scotiabank Saddledome – Calgary, AB”, and the Saddledome lists the Hitmen as a tenant with the Calgary Flames, Calgary Wranglers and Calgary Roughnecks. Each game’s venue is on the Saddledome’s event listings and on the Hitmen’s regular season schedule, which links a printable 2026-27 schedule. The team’s site is at chl.ca/whl-hitmen; the older hitmen.ca address no longer carries the team’s site.

The Farewell Season and the move to Scotia Place
The Calgary Flames’ article of March 21 2026 says 2026-2027 marks the Farewell Season for Calgary Sports and Entertainment Corporation (CSEC) clubs and operations inside the Scotiabank Saddledome, and names the WHL’s Calgary Hitmen among them. The Hitmen’s Scotia Place page says the new arena is scheduled to open in fall 2027; it does not give a date for the Hitmen’s first game there. The City of Calgary says it will demolish the Saddledome when Scotia Place opens. Details are on Scotia Place: what to know, and the other Saddledome teams are on Teams at Victoria Park.
