The Opening Night festivities begin with a pregame Roc the Block Party on Broad St. beginning at 4:00 p.m. Family-friendly activities include a bounce house, face painting and a DJ providing entertainment. Fans can also choose from an assortment of food options while ushering in another exciting season of Amerks hockey in Rochester.
To accommodate the event, Broad St. will be closed and inaccessible from Exchange Blvd. and South Ave. Fans are encouraged to arrive early to allow enough time to navigate through the congested streets surrounding Blue Cross Arena while parking is also expected to fill up fast.
There will also be a Pregame Happy Hour, presented by Genesee Brewery, before the game where fans 21 and older can enjoy $3 12-ounce can beer and drink specials outside at the Block Party between 6 p.m. and 7 p.m. until puck drop.
The first 5,000 fans will receive an Amerks 2024-25 magnet schedule, courtesy of Nissan.
