About the NHL Winter Classic

First played on Jan. 1, 2008, the Bridgestone NHL Winter Classic® is an annual event held by the National Hockey League featuring two teams competing in an outdoor game. The event is reminiscent of hockey's outdoor origins and often features retro uniforms in outdoor stadiums across the U.S. The 2020 NHL Winter Classic will feature the Dallas Stars and your Nashville Predators in the first-ever NHL Winter Classic to be held in the South. 

Hosted in Dallas, Texas, on Jan. 1, 2020, the Bridgestone NHL Winter Classic will be held at the historic Cotton Bowl Stadium made famous in 1937, the year of the first annual Cotton Bowl game.
