For the exhibition part of the schedule, the team will celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month on Tuesday, October 3 during their game against the Red Wings at 7:30 p.m. The first 5,000 fans at each of the preseason games will get a 2023-2024 schedule magnet.
Like in the past, the team will have a “Red Carpet” event for their home opener against the Golden Knights on Saturday, October 12, starting on Madison Street and going inside the United Center Atrium. The first 15,000 fans will get a light-up rally towel.
