The Niagara Falls Memorial Arena was an arena located in Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada. It was built in 1950 and had a capacity of approximately 3,000. The arena was home to various ice hockey teams in the past, including the Niagara Falls Thunder and the Niagara Falls Flyers. It also served as the home of the Niagara Falls Canucks, a team in the Greater Ontario Junior B Hockey League. The Memorial Arena hosted four of the five games played in the 1968 Memorial Cup won by the Flyers on home ice.

The city has built the Gale Centre to replace the Memorial Arena. The Memorial arena is no longer used for hockey, but is still standing used as a sand sculpture museum.
