About OVO Hydro

OVO Hydro is a 14,300-seats multi-purpose indoor arena in SEC Campus / Stobcross, open since 2013. It hosts NHL/NBA games, arena tours, and large-scale concerts, and sits at Exhibition Way, Glasgow G3 8YW. Because it's indoors, plan your night around that — lower bowl center sections sit closest to the stage, while upper bowl corners offer the best value sightlines.
