PENTICTON, BC. – Following the Provincial Health Office’s (PHO) announcement on Monday, the Penticton Vees Hockey Club is pleased to announce the team will host 50% of the capacity of the South Okanagan Events Centre, beginning with the first exhibition game on Friday, September 24th.

With the introduction of the BC Vaccine Card, the PHO announced on Monday that the Interior Health region-specific restrictions have been lifted to allow fifty percent of capacity for indoor gathered events. The Vees open the exhibition season against the Vernon Vipers on Friday, September 24th, at the SOEC.

“We are fortunate to be based out of a facility like the SOEC, where we’ll be able to welcome so many of our fans back to the arena,” commented Vees President, General Manager and Head Coach Fred Harbinson, “We can’t wait to see our fans in person cheering on our team once again this season.”

Single game tickets for the exhibition and regular season games go on sale on Friday, September 17th at 10:00 AM at the SOEC Box Office, as well as online at valleyfirsttix.com.
