Roadrunners Kick Off 2026 with a Full Month of Home Excitement

Tucson, AZ – The Tucson Roadrunners, the top affiliate of the Utah Mammoth, open 2026 with eight home games at Tucson Arena in January, promising a jam-packed month of hockey, entertainment and fan experiences.

Celebrating their 10th Anniversary Season in the Old Pueblo, the Roadrunners will highlight January with fan-favorite theme nights, including Wizards & Witches Night, U of A/College Night, Country Night, Star Wars Night, Health and Wellness Night and a new addition this year, Mardi Gras Night.

Tucson’s January home schedule kicks off with a six-game homestand: the Iowa Wild visit on Jan. 9–10, the San Jose Barracuda on Jan. 16–17 and the San Diego Gulls on Jan. 20–21. The Wild make their first and only regular-season trip to Southern Arizona, and the Barracuda return for their first of two visits to Tucson Arena.

Following the homestand, the Roadrunners head out on a three-game road trip, beginning with a two-game set against the Henderson Silver Knights on Jan. 24–25, and finishing with the team’s first visit to San Diego on Jan. 28. Tucson closes the month at home against the Pacific Division-leading Colorado Eagles on Jan. 30–31.
