Nashville, Tenn. (Aug. 18, 2026) – The Nashville Predators announced today that single-game tickets for all 42 regular season home games of the 2026-27 season presented by Regions Bank will go on sale Tuesday, Sept. 1 at 10 a.m. CT on Ticketmaster.

“The best time of the year is approaching quickly: hockey season! I am so excited to celebrate a new era of the Predators with the best fans in sports at Bridgestone Arena,” Nashville Predators CEO Sean Henry said. “There truly is something for everyone in SMASHVILLE with our season theme nights from the return of Star Wars Night to the continuation of our Smashville Sports Series, Music Heritage Nights, Ford Military Week, two PTO: Preds Time Off weekday matinee games, a Golden Hall Celebration and so much more.

“Plus, we have some incredible giveaways planned—including a SMASHVILLE favorite, a gravy boat made even better with a catfish theme—and a season-long celebration of our newest Hall of Famer and greatest player, Pekka Rinne. From a November celebration of his induction, appropriately taking place during our first Hockey Fights Cancer Celebration game, to a Pekka bobblehead in March honoring his induction into the Hockey Hall of Fame, there will be special moments throughout the entire season. And, of course, some of the best moments will be the surprise Golden Moments created by our fans that leave us all saying, ‘Only In SMASHVILLE!’”

The excitement kicks off with Opening Night presented by Nissan on Oct. 1 against the Minnesota Wild. The first game of the new season will feature the fan-favorite Gold Walk and Plaza Party. Additionally, every fan in attendance will receive an exclusive Opening Night t-shirt, courtesy of Nissan.
