It’s no secret: Vegas loves its Golden Knights. Whether you’re a lifelong hockey fan or a recent convert, the atmosphere in Las Vegas during hockey season is electric. From the roar inside T-Mobile Arena to the celebrations that light up the Strip, the city is packed with pride for its NHL team.
Now entering their ninth season, the Golden Knights are poised for another strong run, even after offseason changes that saw veterans Jonathan Marchessault and Chandler Stephenson depart. With leaders like Jack Eichel and Mark Stone still anchoring the roster, and the exciting addition of Mitch Marner, the team is expected to remain a major contender. The bar is high, and the fanbase is ready.
As the Vegas Golden Knights get ready to hit the ice for the 2025–26 NHL season that kicks off on October 7, there’s no better place to be than in the thick of the action – and no shortage of incredible venues to cheer them on. Whether you’re looking for massive viewing screens, wild fan energy, or a poolside party, Vegas delivers viewing experiences that are as legendary as the team itself.
Inspired by Canada’s love for the game, BarCanada brings a true north feel to Downtown Las Vegas. Expect plenty of cold beer, hockey banter, plenty of TVs to catch every play, and fans who know the difference between a two-line pass and a cross-check. Located near the Circa Sportsbook location at the D, it’s a perfect spot for getting your bets in while cheering on the team for every Knights matchup.
LONGBAR at the D is one of the longest bars in Nevada at nearly 100 feet. With nine beers on tap, bar-top gaming machines, and flair bartenders, it’s a go-to spot to catch VGK games in a more laid-back but enthusiastic setting. Plus, the flat-screen TVs down the whole stretch of the bar means you can catch every play without missing a beat (unless you’re distracted by the flair bartender).

When a VGK watch party or Vegas Golden Knights fan fest is happening here, you won’t want to miss the communal energy surrounded by fellow fans. You’ll be immersed in a sea of gold, high-fives, and hometown pride.
Take your hockey viewing experience to the next level, literally.

Whether you’re diving in or lounging under the sun, this is the most Vegas way to cheer for the home team.
Circa Sportsbook is the world’s largest sportsbook, and has become a true shrine for sports fans. With stadium seating, a 78M pixel screen, and the best odds in town, this is the place to be for the upcoming NHL season. Surrounded by fellow Knights fans, you’ll experience every slapshot, save, and goal like never before. Whether you’re placing live bets or soaking in the adrenaline, this is VGK hockey at the highest level.
Perched above the Circa Sportsbook, Overhang Bar delivers an elevated game-day experience.
