Let’s Go, PREDS!
Our Nashville Predators are back in the playoffs, and so are the parties! Preds fans again get to join fellow Smashvillians to cheer on the Nashville Predators during the Preds Party in the Park outdoor viewing parties, kicking off this Thursday, April 12 for Game 1 of the 2018 NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs.
Viewing parties for home games for Round 1 take place at Music City Walk of Fame Park, located adjacent to Bridgestone Arena on Fifth Avenue South. Free and open to the public, the park opens three hours prior to game time. A giant screen will broadcast the game feed.
Prior to the game, a DJ will be on site to entertain fans. Food trucks and hot dog vendors will be at the park, and you can buy water, sodas, beer and Preds merchandise as well.
“We know from last year’s playoff run that Preds fans want to be near the excitement of Bridgestone Arena even if they don’t have ticket to be inside during home games,” says Butch Spyridon, president/CEO of the Nashville Convention & Visitors Corp. “The spirit of fans really came through last year, and this is all about providing an outlet for them to watch together and celebrate their team,” he adds.
