The tour returns with more chances to score swag, meet Stinger, and celebrate all things hockey
The Columbus Blue Jackets are gearing up for a summer full of hockey, fun, and community connection with the return of the Blue Jackets Summer Mobile Tour. This year’s tour is bigger and better than ever, featuring eight brand-new stops on its route through Ohio. The interactive Blue Jackets experience is designed for fans of all ages—whether you’re a lifelong season ticket holder or a first-time hockey fan—offering a unique way to celebrate the game and connect with the team all summer long.
Kicking off this weekend and running through September, the Summer Mobile Tour will visit community festivals, fairs, parks, and special events throughout Central Ohio and beyond. The tour features a custom-wrapped Blue Jackets vehicle loaded with fan gear and interactive games, including the Inflatable Hockey Challenge and Plinko Prize Board, along with photo opportunities and chances to win autographed items, tickets to 2025–26 season games, and other exclusive prizes. Select stops will also include special appearances by the team’s mascot, Stinger.
