The city of Las Vegas is set to unveil a brand new ball hockey rink at Lorenzi Park on Thursday, April 13. The VGK Ball Hockey Rink at Lorenzi Park was made possible through a donation from the Vegas Golden Knights (VGK) Foundation, with support from the National Hockey League (NHL) and LGBTQ+ allies.

The VGK Ball Hockey Rink at Lorenzi Park is an exciting addition to the Las Vegas community. It will be operated and maintained by the city, with VGK committed to hosting street hockey clinics at the rink with players, alumni, and youth hockey instructors for a minimum of five years. In addition, VGK plans to host periodic activities and initiatives at the new rink.
