Experience Phish Night at the Flyers — Special Concert, Limited Edition Merch & More January 8

For the first time ever, the Philadelphia Flyers are uniting two legendary fan bases for “Phish Night at the Flyers,” coming to Xfinity Mobile Arena on Thursday, January 8, when the Flyers host the Toronto Maple Leafs. This one-of-a-kind event offers hockey fans and Phish phans exclusive experiences—merging arena energy with live jam band magic in true Philly style.

Fans who purchase the special Phish Night ticket package receive a commemorative co-branded Flyers x Phish T-shirt and access to a pregame concert by Rift, Philadelphia’s own Phish tribute band. The concert is hosted by WMMR’s Casey Boy from the Preston & Steve show, adding local radio energy to the festivities.

But it’s more than just merch and music—every ticket supports the WaterWheel Foundation, Phish's charitable arm, helping to benefit causes ranging from the environment and social justice to food insecurity and music education. This partnership echoes decades of jam and generosity, as Philly’s venues have hosted iconic Phish shows and traditions, linking the band and the Flyers through memorable moments.

Phish fans will appreciate the history: From Trey Anastasio donning a Flyers #10 John LeClair jersey at The Spectrum in 1995, to Phish’s epic National Anthem performances and classic multi-night stands in Philly arenas, this band has left a musical signature on the city. Their 1997 album, The Spectrum '97, immortalizes legendary concerts at the Flyers’ historic home, and their ongoing Northeast runs remain fan favorites.

Phish—Trey Anastasio, Jon Fishman, Mike Gordon, Page McConnell—has shaped American rock and jam band culture since forming in 1983, celebrated for improvisational live performances and genre-bending sound. The group’s charitable work through WaterWheel Foundation has raised millions for community causes, including music education and flood relief.

Rift, a local tribute band, adds extra jam spirit by playing classics from the Phish catalog. Their performances criss-cross Philly’s best music stages, uniting new and longtime fans every time they pick up their instruments.

Tickets for “Phish Night at the Flyers” are only available through the official Phish-Flyers package link. Attendees get the full experience: hockey showdown, pregame concert, exclusive merch, and a chance to support powerful charitable giving.

Ready to “surrender to the flow”? This January, join the Flyers and Phish communities for a celebration where the only rule is to bring your energy, your fandom, and your love of live music. Get your tickets now and be part of Philly’s newest hockey tradition!
