It’s finally here! After months of planning, the NHL All-Star Weekend is finally ready to kick off a weekend of celebration with music, mascots, multiple autograph signings and a little bit of hockey and hockey-related activities. With the NHL opting out of the Olympics this season, that means the All-Star game is on. Why spend two weeks in Pyeongchang when you can spend a long weekend in Tampa?
The big hockey match, a series of 3-on-3 games pitting the various divisions against each other, takes place on Sunday. The fun, however, begins on Friday as The PreGame (known as FanFest the last time the All-Star game was in Tampa) kicks off the festivities.
