The Cornwall Civic Complex is a business/sports facility located in Cornwall, Ontario. The arena inside is called the Ed Lumley Arena, named for Ed Lumley. It was built in 1976 and originally held 4,000 people, but in 2008, the arena had an extra 1000 seats added to make the seating 5000. The Complex also has an aquatic centre which was opened in September 2005.
The building was once home to several former ice hockey teams including: the Cornwall Royals of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League and Ontario Hockey League, the Cornwall Aces of the American Hockey League, and the Cornwall River Kings of the Ligue Nord-Américaine de Hockey. In May 2008, the Ed Lumley Arena was host to the Royal Bank Cup.
The Civic Complex has also hosted such concerts as Country legend Charley Pride, Canadian rockers Nickelback, Bryan Adams, and Rush, as well as other Canadian acts Great Big Sea, Celine Dion, Rita MacNeil, Barenaked Ladies, Hedley, Lights, and These Kids Wear Crowns. Legendary rocker Alice Cooper performed at the Cornwall Civic Complex in October 2006.
It has also held many WWE wrestling events and boxing events.
