COSMIC HOCKEY ANNOUNCES DATES FOR INAUGURAL SEASON
Join the Ticket Lottery to Purchase Tickets for the Chilly Peppers and Neon Miracles Tour
FRISCO, TEXAS - Following the announcement of Cosmic Hockey earlier this summer, Cosmic Sports is excited to announce the official schedule for its inaugural Cosmic Hockey Takeover Tour. The tour features two professional teams, the flagship Chilly Peppers and the Neon Miracles, who will face off across seven markets, coming to Fifth Third Arena on January 16, 2027.
“After seeing the unbelievable energy and excitement surrounding Cosmic Baseball, taking this concept to the ice was the natural next evolution for us,” says Chris Martin, Owner and Founder of Cosmic Sports. “Cosmic Hockey is an immersive, high-energy entertainment experience that blends elite athletic speed played under black lights. We’ve re-imagined what a hockey game can look and feel like, and we can’t wait for fans to step into the arena and experience it live for the first time.”
Prior to each game, fans can enjoy a pre-game block party featuring player meet-and-greets, early access to merchandise, and interactive fan zones. The games consist of two halves played with modified rules designed for maximum skill display and fan engagement. While the first half features standard arena lighting, the second half transitions to full UV-reactive black lights, lighting up uniforms, gear, and the puck in a vibrant neon glow. Fans are encouraged to wear reactive clothing to join in the experience.
“Cosmic Hockey merges the skill and creativity of hockey with the immersive technology of Cosmic Sports. Whether you’re a long-time fan of hockey or it's your first experience with the game, Cosmic Hockey will deliver a one-of-a-kind, unforgettable experience for fans of all ages,“ states John Cimperman, VP of Cosmic Hockey.
