Detroit Red Wings to Celebrate Century of Hockey with Immersive Exhibition at Detroit Historical Museum

The Motor City's beloved hockey team, the Detroit Red Wings, is set to commemorate its 100th season in style. A new multi-media exhibition titled "Detroit Red Wings at 100: Becoming Hockeytown" is opening at the Detroit Historical Museum on November 20, offering fans a unique glimpse into the team's rich history.

The sprawling exhibition is divided across three galleries and delves into the legacy of one of the most iconic teams in professional hockey. Rare artifacts, vintage uniforms, and never-before-seen audio-visual clips will transport visitors through the decades, showcasing pivotal moments that have shaped the Red Wings' identity.

While focusing on its namesake team, the exhibition also explores the histories of other prominent Detroit hockey franchises, including the Detroit Falcons and the Detroit Cougars. This broader perspective provides a comprehensive look at the city's passion for the sport, which has earned it the nickname "Hockeytown."

Asia Gholston, Senior Vice President of Brand Marketing for Ilitch Sports + Entertainment, expressed her enthusiasm for the exhibition, stating that it will allow fans to relive and celebrate the Red Wings' 100-year legacy. The event promises to be a must-visit destination for hockey enthusiasts in Detroit.

For those interested in experiencing this piece of sports history, the Detroit Historical Museum is located at 5401 Woodward Avenue, Detroit, with more information available on detroithistorical.org.

🏒️ a century of hockey and still no Stanley Cup 🤣 guess that's what they call 'Hockeytown' when you're all about heart...and occasionally winning. the exhibition at the Detroit Historical Museum sounds like a pretty cool way to spend an afternoon, especially if you're old enough to remember when the Red Wings were actually good 😂. can't wait to see those vintage uniforms and audio-visual clips – maybe they'll even include some footage of Eddie Mio yelling at referees for no reason 🤣

I mean, who doesn't love hearing about the old-school uniforms and legendary players? I've been to some of their games at Little Caesar's Arena and it's always a wild ride, but this exhibition is gonna take you back even further. They should also do an online component with interactive elements, so people can share their own Red Wings memories on social media. Can't wait to check it out! 😊
