Peoria, IL- The Peoria Rivermen are excited to announce the full promotional calendar for the 2019-2020 regular season of Rivermen hockey in downtown Peoria.
The upcoming season is jam-packed with promotions for all 28 home games, which will be played at Carver Arena inside the Peoria Civic Center.

The evening also includes a Rivermen Magnetic Schedule given out to the first 2,500 fans, and select lower bowl seats will be on sale for just $10.
Tommy Hawk will be in town twice this season to celebrate Chicago Blackhawks Night, taking place both October 26 and March 7. In March, the Rivermen will wear Blackhawks-inspired jerseys in their game against the Birmingham Bulls.
Blackhawks jerseys are just one of several specialty sweaters the team will dawn over the course of the 2019-20 campaign. The Southern Professional Hockey League has partnered with both Mossy Oak® and Marvel Super Hero for specialty jerseys that all 10 teams will get to wear during a home game this season.

Wizard, Valentine's Day, and Jimmy Buffet themed jerseys are just some of the many other unique styles Peoria will sport in front of their fans at home this season. All specialty jersey games will be followed with an auction.
Three matinee-friendly contests will be played on Sundays throughout the season, with 3:05PM puck drops scheduled for January 19, February 16, and March 8. On these dates, all kids 12 and under can receive $3 tickets. The day will be filled with activities around the concourse, including inflatables, mascots, face painting, and balloon art. Following the game, fans can partake in an RLI Skate with the Team.
CEFCU Fan Fest takes place on the regular season finale April 3. A team photo will be given out to the first 3,000 fans, and all fans are welcomed to join the team for a postgame Rivermen meet and great.
