Welcome to the Stanley Cup Playoffs!

Finally, the Stanley Cup Playoffs are back in Buffalo. It’s time to celebrate! The Buffalo Sabres are bringing back old traditions and starting some new ones! Here’s a rundown of what will be happening at KeyBank Center and around Western New York in the coming weeks. Stay tuned for more playoff programming, fan sweepstakes and more!

Sabrehood Block Party: The Sabres will host a Sabrehood Block Party for every playoff home game, making sure the playoff atmosphere spills out of the arena.

Each Block Party will include:
Pregame Party in the Plaza: Fans can enjoy music, photo opportunities, alumni appearances, food and drink, and activities in Ticketmaster Alumni Plaza.

Watch Party at Canalside: To ensure room for the entire Sabrehood, playoff watch parties will be held at Canalside featuring a large screen showing the game along with on-stage entertainment, food and beer trucks and more! Watch parties will be free and open to the public.

Rally Towel Giveaways presented by KeyBank: Nothing says “playoffs” like a sea of 19,070 rally towels waving in unison. The Sabres will be giving away commemorative rally towels for EVERY playoff home game. Each towel will feature a unique slogan, which will be unveiled in the days before each game.
