Lightning announces improvements to the fan experience for the 2024-25 season

“Every year we strive to improve our world-class fan experience,” said Lightning CEO Steve Griggs. “Based on survey data and fan feedback, we have decided to maintain concession pricing, with additional discounts available for Bolt for Life members. Our fan-friendly pre-game pricing at Ford Thunder Alley invites Bolts Nation to arrive early and enjoy the vibrant Water Street neighborhood. We’re excited to bring these upgrades and programs to life so that everyone who visits AMALIE Arena can experience the positive feels impactful.”

Starting at the plaza happy hour on all game days, fans will have the opportunity to enjoy special pricing on drinks and snacks, including $2.50 water, soda and peanuts, $5 12-ounce canned beers and seltzers, $12 single cocktails and $ 22 double cocktails.

Premiering in 2024, the all-new ‘Bolts Bites’ guest chef series is sure to be a hit, with a full lineup of local guest chefs serving up some of the best dishes Tampa has to offer on select game days. The series spotlights chefs such as Gia Tran of Zukku Sushi, Dan Bavaro and Jordan Johnson of Bavaro’s, Sean Brasel of Meat Market, Chad Johnson of Bern’s Steak House and Haven, Gino Tiozzo of Donatello and many more.

New this season, all Bolts Games guests can enjoy the diverse culinary offerings available at Market on Four and will also have the chance to enjoy a seasonally inspired cocktail menu, featuring playfully crafted cocktails made with a variety of fresh ingredients, including Cotton Candy and ice cream. Additionally, these cocktails will showcase the creative application of items such as Cherry Pepsi Cold Foam and will be served in high-quality, reusable glassware, mason jars or shakers.
