Minnesota Wild To Hold Open Practice At Duluth’s AMSOIL Arena

The Minnesota Wild will be heading north from their normal practice home for an open practice event at AMSOIL Arena in Duluth this fall.

The Duluth Entertainment Convention Center (DECC) announced that the team will be returning to the ice at AMSOIL Arena for an open practice for the first time since 2021.

The event will be free and open to the public, providing fans the opportunity to see the full roster of Wild players - including the likes of Kirill Kaprizov, Matt Boldy, Jonas Brodin, and Marc-Andre Fleury, all in Duluth.

More than 1,000 people were in attendance the last time the Wild held an open practice at AMSOIL Arena, with a fun and "lively" environment reported among fans when they were in Duluth in 2021.

This year's event will be held as they finish up their preseason activities ahead of the 2023-2024 season.
