The Whiteout returns to Bell MTS Place on Wednesday.
Winnipeg Jets fans are expected in droves as the playoff season is upon us. Game ticket holders and non-ticket holders are welcomed to take to the streets outside Bell MTS Place to celebrate.
Street party zones/capacity will be decided 48 hours prior to start time. Food and entertainment will once again be offered, as well as a dedicated family zone. Street party gates will open two hours before puck drop on game day.
Playoff ticket holders get in for free and fans who aren’t going to the game but plan to head downtown to take part in the festivities will need to buy $5 tickets. All funds from Whiteout ticket sales will go to United Way Winnipeg.
