It begins before the opening face-off and can go far into the night for those so inclined...

It's Labatt Blue Light Hockey Night in Portland...and it's the fan experience Portland has been looking for, highlighted by Portland Pirates Hockey at the Cumberland County Civic Center.

For 12 Saturdays this season, starting October 10th and ending April 10th, the Portland Pirates,
Labatt Blue Light and local sponsors will be teaming up to give you an evening of great fun, entertainment and great AHL Portland Pirates action.

Before the game, at the Civic Center, you can create a poster to cheer on your favorite players at the
Craft Table in the Funtown Splashtown Family Fun Zone hosted by Jolly John. And during each Saturday game fans can meet players signing autographs during intermission, and experience our exciting in-game promotions.
