The following is a list of World Hockey Association (WHA) arenas.
34 total venues hosted a regular season game in the league from 1972 to 1979. Just three venues hosted 200 games over the seven WHA seasons: Winnipeg Arena, which hosted 279, Colisée de Québec, which hosted 278, and Edmonton Coliseum, which hosted 201. The Randhurst Twin Ice Arena hosted playoff games in the 1974 WHA playoffs for the Chicago Cougars due to scheduling conflicts but never hosted a regular season game.
