Scoreboard Message
Would you like to wish someone a happy birthday or welcome a fellow fan to the Bell Centre? You can do so in a unique way during a Canadiens home game!
Celebrate a special moment in front of over 21,000 fans on the big screen at the Bell Centre!
Whether it’s a birthday, anniversary, graduation, a warm welcome, or a message of love or encouragement for fellow fans or the Canadiens, scoreboard messages are a fun way to add to the game-day experience.
Messages appear during the second intermission, with only seven spots available per game on a first-come, first-served basis.
