Traditionally, league games were played at outdoor rinks. Since 2021, with the opening of Mongolia's first-ever indoor arena (AIC Steppe Arena), some league games are played indoors while others are played at outdoor rinks in various cities, such as Baganuur, Darkhan, and Erdenet. Play-offs and other important games are played indoors. Other indoor venues, like the Chingeltei Arena, have opened since 2021 and now also host league games. The country now has four indoor hockey venues and eighteen outdoor rinks.
