Stars to Host 2027 NHL Stadium Series at AT&T Stadium on Feb. 20

The choice reflects a push for weather-safe builds at large venues offering six-figure attendance potential.

Overview

  • The matchup is set for 8 p.m. ET in Arlington, with the Stars’ opponent to be announced at a later date.
  • This will be the first hockey game at AT&T Stadium, and the roof is slated to be open on game day, according to the NHL.
  • AT&T Stadium seats more than 80,000 and can exceed 100,000 with standing room, giving the event a chance to approach the NHL attendance record.
