Bright-Landry Hockey Center is an indoor ice hockey arena located on the campus of Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts. It serves as the home rink for the Harvard Crimson men's and women's ice hockey teams. The facility is named in honor of C. Kevin Landry and his wife, Barrie Landry, who made a significant donation to the university.

History

The arena was originally opened in 1956 as the Donald C. Watson Rink. In 1979, it was renamed the Bright Hockey Center in honor of former Harvard hockey player and benefactor, Gordon McKay Bright. In 2014, following a substantial donation from the Landry family, the facility was renamed the Bright-Landry Hockey Center.

Facilities

The Bright-Landry Hockey Center features a standard-sized ice rink, seating for approximately 3,095 spectators, and modern amenities for both players and fans. The arena underwent significant renovations in 2014, which included updated locker rooms, improved seating, and enhanced training facilities.

Events

In addition to hosting Harvard's home games, the Bright-Landry Hockey Center is used for various other events, including youth hockey tournaments, figure skating competitions, and community events.
