Detroit Red Wings vs. Calgary Flames
About this event
NHL regular season game between the Detroit Red Wings and the Calgary Flames.
What to Expect
- 1.Arrive early to clear security and parking and to catch warmups if you want to see the players skate before puck drop.
- 2.Plan food and drinks for before the puck drops or during intermission—the arena has multiple options, but lines can get long right before/after the game, so go early or during a lull.
- 3.Know your seat and sightlines ahead of time; if you’re up high, you’ll want to zoom in on the scoreboard for replays, and be mindful of long concession queues near your section.
- 4.Expect a loud, high-energy crowd—participation is encouraged, so you’ll want ear protection for kids or if you’re sensitive to noise, and get into the chants early to feel the energy.
- 5.After the game, check traffic around Little Caesars Arena and plan your transit or rideshare in advance to avoid the weekend crush and long exits.
