Golden Knights Hockey Week 2026: A Locals Guide

The Vegas Golden Knights are giving Southern Nevada residents nine straight days of hometown hockey, with eight games, special promotions and community events scheduled from November 11–19, 2026.
Officially called Knights Hockey Week, the celebration features five Golden Knights games at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas and three Henderson Silver Knights games at Lee’s Family Forum.
For locals, the biggest attraction isn’t just the packed schedule. It’s the opportunity to support both hometown teams while taking advantage of discounted concessions, special merchandise, charitable events and free family activities.
Park MGM is also getting into the spirit with exclusive game-day dining and drink specials for Nevada residents, including $5 select drinks, $6 beers and a $17.77 postgame food offer.
Meanwhile, the Golden Knights are introducing a refreshed VGK Locals Menu, featuring select arena concessions priced at $5.50.

Park MGM Offers Exclusive Golden Knights Game-Day Specials for Locals
One of the best additions to the 2026–27 hockey season is a new collection of Nevada-resident dining and drink specials at Park MGM.
Located steps from T-Mobile Arena, the resort is positioning itself as a convenient gathering place before and after Golden Knights home games.
The offers are available at participating venues on home game days, with a valid Nevada ID required for qualifying locals promotions.
That makes Park MGM especially appealing to residents who want to enjoy a night on the Strip without paying premium prices for every part of the experience.

For locals looking for a straightforward pregame option, BetMGM Sportsbook & Bar offers select beers and New Amsterdam Vodka for $5.
The promotion begins at 4 p.m. and continues through closing on qualifying home game days.
The sportsbook setting also makes it an option for fans who prefer to watch sports in a lively bar environment.
Eataly: An Italian-Style Pregame
Eataly Bar offers a different atmosphere for hockey night.
Its Aperitivo Hour features:
- $8 lagers
- $12 wines
- $16 spritzes

Primrose Lounge offers one of the more appealing pregame schedules.
From 2 to 7 p.m., advertised specials include $15 entrées, $10 cocktails, $8 wines and $6 beers.
That makes it a convenient choice for locals who want to arrive early, eat before the game and avoid rushing through dinner.
The earlier start is particularly useful for the November 11 game, which begins at 6:30 p.m.
The Reserve Bar: Buy-One-Get-One Cocktails
The Reserve Bar offers a buy-one-get-one promotion on select cocktails from 4 p.m. until closing on qualifying home game days.
For two adults planning a pregame drink, this can be a useful option.
The venue also has a special postgame food promotion that deserves attention.
The $17.77 Knightcap: A Postgame Deal
After the final horn, The Reserve Bar offers The Knightcap, a $17.77 postgame special featuring buttermilk chicken tenders, a Reserve Burger and truffle fries.
Park MGM also advertises a 20% discount at The Library for a future visit with the qualifying postgame offer.
The price is a nod to the Golden Knights’ 2017 founding season.
For locals who want to avoid the immediate rush out of the arena, staying nearby for a postgame bite can be an appealing alternative.
Confirm how the food offer is served, whether any restrictions apply and the terms of the future dining discount.

The Crack Shack is another option for a casual game-day meal.
Its advertised hockey specials include:
- $6 lagers
- $2 off specialty cocktails
- $1 off hot honey tenders
- $4 off the Big Pecker Meal
The restaurant’s casual atmosphere makes it a practical choice for groups looking for a quick bite before or after the game.
Bavette’s and Best Friend: A More Elevated Hockey Night
Not every local game night has to be budget-focused.
For fans celebrating a birthday, anniversary or special occasion, Park MGM also offers more upscale dining options.
Bavette’s Steakhouse opens at 4:30 p.m. on Golden Knights home game days, giving guests time for an early dinner.
Best Friend, the Korean-inspired restaurant from chef Roy Choi, offers another distinctive dining experience.
These restaurants are not part of every advertised locals discount, but they provide options for residents who want to turn a hockey game into a full evening out.
Golden Knights Introduce a Refreshed $5.50 Locals Menu
Park MGM isn’t the only place offering a more accessible game-day experience.
During Knights Hockey Week, the Golden Knights are introducing a refreshed version of the VGK Locals Menu at T-Mobile Arena.
Select concession items are priced at $5.50 each.
New additions include mini corn dogs and hummus with pita, joining existing menu favorites.
Why the VGK Locals Menu Matters
For families attending a game, food and beverage costs can add up quickly.
A lower-priced concession menu gives fans more flexibility when planning their night.
It is especially helpful for parents bringing children or residents attending more than one game during the nine-day celebration.
Check participating concession stands for item availability and any purchase restrictions.
November 11: Military Appreciation Knight Honors Local Service Members
Knights Hockey Week begins on Veterans Day with the Golden Knights hosting the Utah Mammoth at 6:30 p.m.
The evening’s theme is Military Appreciation Knight, presented by True Vet Solutions.
For Southern Nevada, the event has particular significance.
The Las Vegas Valley is home to a large military community, including active-duty personnel, veterans and families connected to Nellis Air Force Base and Creech Air Force Base.
Military Appreciation Activities
Fans can pick up “I Salute” signs near Section 12 to recognize military members who have made a difference in their lives.
The Golden Knights will also welcome special guests from the Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors, known as TAPS.

Specialty Jerseys Support Veterans

For locals, the back-to-back games provide two opportunities to support a cause that touches many Southern Nevada families.
November 15: Hometown Remix Uniforms Make Their Debut
The Golden Knights will unveil their new Hometown Remix uniforms on Sunday, November 15, when they host the Vancouver Canucks at 6 p.m.
The team plans to wear the uniforms five times during the 2026–27 regular season, all at home.
For fans who have followed the franchise since its inaugural season, the debut adds another chapter to the team’s evolving identity.
Where to Buy Hometown Remix Merchandise
A limited selection of jerseys, apparel and headwear will be available at:
- The Armory, inside T-Mobile Arena

Collectors should expect limited availability and check with the stores for current inventory.
Bring Nonperishable Food Donations
The Golden Knights will also host a canned food drive on Paramount+ Plaza before the game.
Fans are encouraged to bring nonperishable food items.
Smith’s is the presenting partner of the drive.
For residents who want to support the community while enjoying hockey, this is an easy opportunity to participate.
November 16: Free Public Skate in Henderson
One of the most family-friendly events of Knights Hockey Week takes place away from T-Mobile Arena.
On Monday, November 16, Lee’s Family Forum will host a free public skating session from 5 to 7 p.m.
Admission is free, but an RSVP is required.
What Families Should Know
Visitors are encouraged to bring their own skates.
A limited number of rental skates is expected to be available.
For Henderson families, the event offers a chance to enjoy the Silver Knights’ home arena without purchasing game tickets.
It can also introduce younger children to skating in a familiar local venue.
Check the official Knights Hockey Week announcement for RSVP details.
November 17: Golden Knights and Formula 1 Come Together
The Golden Knights’ November 17 game against the Dallas Stars brings a different kind of excitement to T-Mobile Arena.
The matchup is the team’s first Collaboration Knight of the season, celebrating the 2026 Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix.
Puck drop is scheduled for 7 p.m.
Formula 1 Cars on Paramount+ Plaza
Before the game, fans can explore vehicle displays on Paramount+ Plaza.

Exclusive VGK x F1 Merchandise
Collaboration merchandise will be available at The Armory and The Arsenal.
For local fans who follow both hockey and motorsports, the collection offers a unique Las Vegas-themed souvenir.
The event takes place just days before the November 21 Formula 1 race.
A Local’s Tip for Race Week
With Grand Prix preparations underway, expect traffic patterns and travel times around the Strip to change.
Residents attending the November 17 or November 19 Golden Knights games should check road restrictions before leaving home.
Arriving early and walking from a nearby parking location may be easier than trying to drive directly to the arena entrance.
November 20: Henderson Silver Knights Rink Night at Ethel M Chocolates
The hometown hockey celebration continues into the holiday season with Henderson Silver Knights Rink Night at Ethel M Chocolates’ 33rd Annual Holiday Cactus Garden Lights on Friday, November 20, 2026, at 6 p.m.
Fans wearing Henderson Silver Knights or Vegas Golden Knights apparel will receive complimentary admission to the illuminated cactus garden. Henderson Silver Knights mascot Lucky will also make a special appearance for fan photographs.
For Southern Nevada families, it’s a festive way to combine two local favorites: hockey and holiday lights.
Best for: Hockey fans, families and Henderson residents looking for a seasonal outing.
Local tip: Wear your Golden Knights or Silver Knights gear to qualify for complimentary garden admission.
Although Rink Night takes place one day after the official Knights Hockey Week concludes, it’s a natural way to extend the hometown hockey festivities.
Silver Knights Games Offer Another Way to Support Hometown Hockey
While the Golden Knights attract national attention, the Henderson Silver Knights offer a different kind of local sports experience.
The American Hockey League team plays at Lee’s Family Forum in Green Valley.
For families and residents who prefer a smaller arena, Silver Knights games can be an appealing alternative.
November 12: Silver Knights vs. Calgary Wranglers
The Silver Knights begin their Hockey Week schedule on Thursday, November 12, at 7 p.m.
The first intermission will feature Mites at Knight, showcasing players from the 8U House League at America First Center.

Saturday’s game against Calgary begins at 6 p.m.
The first 1,500 fans receive a commemorative sunshade, and the evening includes cancer-awareness activities.

How Locals Can Save Money During Knights Hockey Week
Attending a professional hockey game doesn’t have to mean spending heavily on every part of the evening.
A few choices can help make the experience more manageable.
Look for Official Ticket Promotions
The Golden Knights offer special ticket promotions for select games.
Military Appreciation Knight includes a limited ticket-and-shirt offer.
The Silver Knights also provide ticket options for games at Lee’s Family Forum.

Use the Park MGM Locals Offers

Check which stands offer the menu before ordering.
Attend the Free Skate
The November 16 public skate is one of the week’s most accessible activities.
Admission is free with an RSVP, although rental availability is limited.
Consider a Silver Knights Game
For residents who simply want to enjoy live hockey, comparing Silver Knights ticket prices with Golden Knights tickets may reveal more affordable options.
Prices vary by matchup, section and availability, so compare current listings rather than assuming one game will always cost less.
Parking and Transportation Tips for Las Vegas Locals
For residents, one of the biggest differences between a fun game night and a frustrating one is the arrival plan.
