Avalanche vs Knights: Pre-Game Meetup

Heads up: the matchup on this page is sample data. The teams, records, tip or start times, broadcast, weather and lot-status details shown on the Avalanche vs Knights card come from the launch design of ColoFandom and are placeholders, not live information. Please check the NHL and Avalanche schedules for the real date, time and broadcaster before you plan anything.

What does not depend on the sample matchup is the part we care about most: how to have a good matchday with Avalanche and Golden Knights fans. The guidance below works for any home game at Ball Arena.

Check the schedule first

Real schedules move. Times change for television, games get rescheduled, and tickets, entry rules and bag policies are set by the team and venue. ColoFandom does not sell tickets and does not issue parking or lot permits. Confirm everything with the official sources, then use this page to plan the human side of the day.

Getting there

Ball Arena sits right at the edge of downtown, so walking, transit and rideshare all work. Hockey crowds arrive in a wave before puck drop, so aim to meet well ahead of doors and give yourself a buffer for security lines. Confirm parking and transit details before you go.

Where to meet

Pick a simple, easy-to-describe meeting point in general terms, like a visible spot near the arena, and agree on a time and a backup plan if phones lose signal in a big crowd.

What a ColoFandom pre-game meetup is

A ColoFandom pre-game meetup is an informal gathering of fans before a game. It is not an official team or venue event, and there is no host staff, ticket or guarantee attached. When you RSVP on ColoFandom, your RSVP goes only to a ColoFandom-side list so we can gauge interest. It does not reserve a table, a spot or entry anywhere.

Meetups are meant to be friendly and welcoming, including for newcomers and rival fans. Please follow the Tailgate & Community Code: respect other people, drink responsibly and follow venue rules.

The chat room is opening soon

You may see a live chat room button on the sample card. No live chat exists yet. A matchday chat room is a future ColoFandom feature, opening soon, and we will say so plainly once it is real. Until then, coordinate with your group by text, and email us with ideas.

Stay comfortable and safe

Hockey nights in a Colorado winter can mean snow, ice and cold walks. Dress in layers, wear shoes with grip and keep a charged phone for finding your group.

Drink responsibly, line up a designated driver or ride home, and remember that the the Ball Arena area rules and local laws apply to everyone.
