Detroit Red Wings
Red Wings Move Opening Night Start Time
Tigers Are Playing At Comerica Starting at 6:08 p.m.
The Detroit Red Wings are moving the start of their Thursday season opener against Pittsburgh from 7 to 8 p.m. because the Detroit Tigers will be playing a playoff game at Comerica Park.
The Tigers play the Cleveland Guardians at 6:08 in Game 4 of their American League Division Series. Even with the new 8 p.m. start, Red Wings fans are encouraged to arrive early. Since both Little Caesars Arena and Comerica use the same lot, parking could be challenging. Traffic volume will be heavy around the two venues.
Doors to Little Caesars Arena for ticketed fans will open at 5:00 p.m. All ticketed fans will receive an Opening Night Rally
Bally Sports Detroit and WWJ Newsradio 950 will broadcast the Red Wings-Penguins game live. Fans can book parking in advance by visiting ParkWhiz.com.
All restaurants are accessible from outside Little Caesars Arena for both ticketed and non-ticketed fans. The Chevrolet Plaza and the Budweiser Biergarten will open for Fan Fest at 4:30 p.m., with the Team Store opening at 3:30 p.m. During the pregame festival, fans can play street hockey adjacent to Little Caesars Arena. The band Collison Six will perform live in the Chevrolet Plaza.
Doors to Little Caesars Arena for ticketed fans will open at 5:00 p.m. All ticketed fans will receive an Opening Night Rally Towel, presented by Coca-Cola Zero Sugar and Meijer. Coca-Cola samples will be available in the Via concourse.
