The Kingston Memorial Centre (originally the Kingston Community War Memorial Arena) is a 3,300-seat multi-purpose arena in Kingston, Ontario, Canada. It was built in 1950. The Memorial Centre has a large ice pad, outdoor pool, softball diamonds and a cinder track, and is home to the Kingston Frontenacs ice hockey team.
The Kingston Memorial Centre hosts the Kingston Fall Fair, and as an entertainment venue, has hosted the World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE), Wayne Newton and Our Lady Peace.
In May 2006 Kingston city council announced that they would be building a new downtown arena to replace the Memorial Centre. The city hopes to have the new building finished by December 2007.
