The Sioux Falls Stampede are back at the Denny Sanford PREMIER Center on Saturday night, ready to raise a banner and celebrate the 2026 Clark Cup Championship. Here's everything you need to know before heading to the Herd's home opener!

Arrive Early

There are multiple events taking place in the vicinity, so make sure to give yourself time to find parking.
The good news is that if you're arriving early anyway, we're holding a tailgate at the Birdcage from 3:30 PM CT to 5 PM CT. Food, music, friends and family fun await!
Kicking off the tailgate, the Stampede are taking to the blue carpet as they arrive at the Denny Sanford PREMIER Center. Line the carpet and show the Herd your support as they walk in for their first home game of the season.

Giveaways

The first 1,000 kids 12 & under will receive a youth giveaway replica jersey, while the first 1,000 fans of all ages will receive a mini replica banner!
Signs will be posted for the youth jersey giveaway, which will be at the Convention Center after you enter the Denny Sanford PREMIER Center.
Mini banners will be distributed at the top of the stairs at the arena entrance.

Arena Activities

Mr. Twister will be outside of Section 107 for balloon animal fun
Chuck-A-Puck will be available outside of Section 102
There will be a sign-making station outside of Section 101

Post-Game

Bring your skates to the game and hit the ice with the Herd for 30 minutes immediately following the game!
