The Chicago Blackhawks today announced the team will return to Milwaukee, Wis. for another “Home Away From Home” preseason game at Fiserv Forum against the St. Louis Blues on Saturday, Oct. 5 at 7 p.m. Tickets for the matchup will go on sale this Friday, July 12 at 10 a.m.
"Our players, staff and fans had such an incredible experience at Fiserv Forum two years ago, and we’re really excited to bring Blackhawks gameday back to Milwaukee this upcoming preseason," said Jaime Faulkner, President of Business Operations at Chicago Blackhawks. "This is a great opportunity for all of our fans in northern Illinois and Wisconsin to be a part of Blackhawks hockey, and there’s no better opponent to take on than a Central division rival, the St. Louis Blues, in this special matchup before we meet again at the Winter Classic in December.”
Prior to the puck drop, Fiserv Forum's entertainment plaza and Deer District will host pre-game celebrations for fans, which will include Blackhawks celebrity appearances, live music, photo opportunities and more.
"We’re excited to welcome the NHL back to Milwaukee following the success of the Blackhawks’ inaugural ‘Home Away From Home’ series in 2022,” said Peter Feigin, Milwaukee Bucks and Fiserv Forum President. “We strive to bring a diverse lineup of events to Fiserv Forum and look forward to hosting fans of the NHL, Blackhawks and Blues this fall.”
Prior to Chicago’s inaugural ‘Home Away From Home’ preseason game in 2022, where the team took on the Minnesota Wild at Fiserv Forum, the Blackhawks had not played in Milwaukee since Dec. 1, 1992 against the Los Angeles Kings.
