Winnipeg Jets Reveal Promotional Schedule for 2025-26 Season
The Winnipeg Jets reveal the promotional schedule ahead of the 2025-26 season including cultural nights, epic giveaways and fun theme nights.
The Winnipeg Jets have unveiled their full promotional schedule for the 2025-26 NHL season, bringing a fresh mix of fan-favorite events, brand-new theme nights, and community-focused initiatives to Canada Life Centre. With a packed calendar of giveaways, cultural celebrations, and cause-driven nights, the organization is once again aiming to deliver a memorable game-day experience on and off the ice.
The season launches in style on October 9 with the Home Opener presented by Canada Life, as the Jets renew their playoff rivalry with the Dallas Stars. Every fan in attendance will receive a team-branded toque courtesy of Canada Life, setting the tone for a season that promises to blend high-stakes hockey with fan-first entertainment. Just two nights later, the Opening Weekend Celebration on October 11 will hand out mini banners to the first 5,000 fans, commemorating the Jets' historic 2024-25 campaign that saw them capture both the Presidents' Trophy and Central Division title.

A highlight of this year's schedule is the introduction of several new theme games designed to energize the fan base and bring new energy into the arena. The Hoser Game, Après Ski Night, and the St. Patrick's Day Game headline the additions, offering fans chances to dress up, win prizes, and celebrate the lighter side of hockey culture. On March 14, fans at the Hoser Game will receive trapper hats, while Après Ski Night on January 9 will see ski goggles handed out to the first 5,000 attendees. Green will be the color of choice on March 17, as the St. Patrick's Day Game adds a lucky twist to the calendar.
Classic theme nights will also return in full force. On October 24, 90s Night brings retro vibes and corduroy snapbacks to the crowd. Country Night on March 7 features cowboy hat giveaways, and the always popular Halloween Game on October 30 gives fans a reason to get creative with costumes. December 15's Holiday Game promises festive cheer and surprise gifts, while the season wraps up on April 16 with Fan Appreciation Night, packed with giveaways as a thank you to the Jets faithful.
The season will again spotlight Winnipeg's cultural diversity through a series of heritage nights. Ukrainian Heritage Night returns January 6 after a successful debut last season. Filipino Heritage Night (November 18), South Asian Heritage Night presented by Canada Life (December 5), WASAC Night presented by Scotiabank (January 24), and Black History Night (March 3) will showcase the rich cultures that make up the Manitoba community, featuring themed food, music, and entertainment.
True to tradition, the Jets continue to use their platform to raise awareness for important causes. Child Advocacy Night on October 18 will support Toba Centre for Children and Youth, while the Pride Game on November 1 will benefit local 2SLGBTQ+ organizations. November 23 marks Hockey Fights Cancer Night in support of CancerCare Manitoba Foundation, with Hockey Talks Night following on January 17 in partnership with Project 11. Canadian Armed Forces Appreciation Night (January 13), Celebrating Women in Sport Night (March 5), and Parkinson's Awareness Night (April 11) round out the team's commitment to advocacy and inclusion.
Another season highlight comes on March 26, when Jerseys Off Our Backs Night returns. Each player will gift a lucky fan their game-worn or game-issued jersey in a fan-favorite postgame tradition.
