If you’re heading to a Halifax Mooseheads game this season, expect some big changes with the 50/50 draw.
Due to regulation changes with the Nova Scotia Alcohol and Gaming Division, all 50/50 ticket sales at Mooseheads home games will now be conducted online only via mobile device or at home.
This is similar to the 2023 IIHF World Junior Championship when it was in Halifax.
Fans can participate in the draw from anywhere in Nova Scotia and do not need to be in the building to claim the jackpot.
This change is aligned with the Scotiabank Centre’s move towards a cashless venue experience that will significantly improve concourse congestion during intermissions allowing fans shorter wait times at concessions and merchandise booths.
Visit www.rafflebox.ca/raffle/mooseheads/ on gameday to purchase tickets.
Proceeds go to the Halifax Mooseheads Charitable Foundation which funds community initiatives and programs as well as the player education fund.

Your Halifax Mooseheads are off to a good start winning four out of their first five games to open the season on the road.
The Herd’s home opener is this Friday, October 4th when the Moose take on QMJHL 1st overall pick Maddox Dagenais and the Quebec Remparts at 7pm.
See ya at the rink!
