In Edmonton, the business of hockey is as sophisticated as it is serious. A slapshot away from the city's new arena, Rogers Place, in the heart of Edmonton’s transformational ICE District, the Oilers Entertainment Group (OEG) headquarters captures the spirit of a rowdy hockey arena and its iconic team. The space is designed to steer the brand’s evolution from a sports-centric business to an all-encompassing entertainment and hospitality group.
