Join the Preds for Christmas in July This Saturday at Bridgestone Arena

December may be five months away, but Christmas is coming early to SMASHVILLE!

Held at Bridgestone Arena, the seasonal festivities will be open to fans from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m., but Season Ticket Citizens will be given early access from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.

In addition to a special appearance from Predators forward Yakov Trenin, top prospect Fedor Svechkov, and alum J-P Dumont, the free event will feature a professionally used equipment sale, a holiday photo opportunity in the Preds locker room and hourly giveaways - not to mention the variety of other Christmas-themed activities guaranteed to make you feel jolly.

The Nashville Predators Foundation Empowered by SmileDirectClub will also be hosting a toy drive at the event. Bring a toy and receive an exclusive Loyal Legion scarf (while supplies last)! Toys will be donated to a local charity.

And if spending a summer day in SMASHVILLE wasn't enough of a gift, fans will also be given first dibs to the 25th Anniversary 25 Game Plan presented by News 2. This upper-level ticket package includes 25 weekday games at $25 per seat and comes with a 25th Anniversary Yearbook.
