Victoria Royals hockey is officially back in action, and this season there’s a long list of themed events that fans won’t want to miss!

Though the Royals home-opener kicked off on a not-so-spectacular foot with a 5-0 loss to the visiting Vancouver Giants, the club hopes to hit the ground running (skating?) with this full lineup of fan-friendly games.

From beer and bratwurst to a Halloween Spooktacular, here are six must-see Victoria Royals happening at Save-On-Foods Memorial Centre this month:

Not-So-Spring Fling

Friday, October 8th

Social media “Frosh Week” will lead Victorians to “Pledge” their loyalty to the Blue in this collegiate inspired evening.

Saturday, October 9th

Enjoying the company of others with beer, music and bratwurst!

Tasty Tuesday

Tuesday, October 12th

“Cheap eats” at SOFMC concessions allows fans to indulge in the game and their favorite treats at a favorable price. Friends don’t let friends miss out on these deals.

Way Back Wednesday – 60s Night

Wednesday, October 13th
