The National League of ice hockey in Switzerland is one of the most thrilling and widely watched hockey leagues in Europe! Experience the excitement live at the newly built Swiss Life Arena in Zurich, which opened its doors in October 2022 with a game from the legendary ZSC Lions. Whether you're a lifelong hockey enthusiast or have never seen a single match, we want you to join us for an unforgettable live game! Everyone with a valid Legi (Student ID, not ESN card) is welcome!

Meet us at 14:30 in the south of the arena, near the train tracks, right underneath the big lion sign (the logo of the ZSC Lions on the facade of the arena). The Swiss Life Arena is easily accessible by public transport—you can take the train, bus, or tram to Altstetten station and enjoy a short 10-minute walk to the arena. The puck drops at 15:45, and the game will run until around 18:00.

We'll be standing with the passionate fans in the standing section, which means no seats—but that's where the energy is highest! To show your team spirit and really blend in with the fans, wear blue and white, the team colours of the ZSC Lions. While we’ll be inside, it can still be cool near the ice, so dress warmly, but make sure you’re ready to cheer loud and proud for the team.
