From a practical standpoint, our Open House serves a purpose: it allows our fans to get into our arena and get more acclimated with the area.
This is so when next season begins, our fans will already familiar with the logistics of coming to T-Mobile Arena and attending games.
But while this will be the purpose of many fans' visits this week, there will also be quite a bit of live entertainment. And with entrance into T-Mobile Arena being free of charge, this Open House is also meant to provide an easy entertainment option for our fans.
"If you're going to have an event for 24 hours, you have to program it with other events and activities," Bubolz said. "The building is open. We know that we have to create opportunities for people who want to learn more about the game itself. So we're bringing in several people from our hockey operations group to do Hockey 101 sessions, which we feel is a really important opportunity for us. And the rest of it is, it's seeing the building and how terrific of a facility this is."
These entertainment options will be headlined by CBS Radio's live broadcasting of several programs live and on-site.
