Railers Put Single-Game Tickets on Sale for 36-Game Home Schedule

WORCESTER, Mass. — Single-game tickets for the Worcester Railers’ 2026-27 season are on sale now, the ECHL club announced, opening up all 36 home dates at the DCU Center ahead of an October opener against the Maine Mariners.

The Railers begin their ninth season in Worcester on Saturday, Oct. 17, hosting Maine at 6:05 p.m. The Trois-Rivières Lions visit the following afternoon, Oct. 18, to round out Opening Weekend.

“The ninth season of Railers hockey is shaping up to be the organization’s best yet,” Railers chief operating officer Michael Myers said in a statement announcing the schedule. “We look forward to welcoming our fans back to the DCU Center this coming October.”

Worcester will face 10 different opponents at home this season as part of a wider 72-game ECHL slate that includes 13 total opponents and six teams from outside the club’s division. New to the home schedule are the Trenton Ironhawks, an ECHL expansion team joining the North Division, who make four trips to the DCU Center beginning Dec. 19. The Allen Americans return to Worcester for the first time since 2019.

Fans can buy single-game seats directly through Ticketmaster or the Railers box office. The team is also offering a 10-Game Mini-Plan built around its top promotional nights, a 10-game Rivalry Pack focused on divisional matchups, group rates for parties of 10 or more, $15 “Railers Rush” student tickets, and 508 Club season memberships. Packages and season tickets can be ordered by phone at 508-365-1750 or through railershc.com.

The promotional calendar carries 36 separate game themes, including 13 giveaway nights and eight games with specialty jerseys. The team will also debut new “Heart of the Commonwealth” alternate jerseys on nine dates this season. Early highlights include Bluey Day on Oct. 18, a Railers Fight Cancer night Nov. 7, and an Autism Awareness Day game Nov. 8.
