Norfolk Admirals @ Reading Royals
April 8, 2027 · 7:00 PM · 700 Penn St, Reading
About the event
Pro hockey returns to downtown Reading when the Royals host the Norfolk Admirals at Santander Arena, with puck drop set for 7:00 PM. Reading plays in the ECHL as the affiliate of the Philadelphia Flyers and the Lehigh Valley Phantoms, so the roster is stocked with players working their way toward the NHL.
The Admirals come north from Norfolk, Virginia, where they play at Norfolk Scope and represent the Hampton Roads region. Both clubs sit in the ECHL's North Division, which keeps meetings like this one competitive and gives Reading fans a familiar visiting opponent to root against.
Early April games carry extra weight as the regular season winds toward the Kelly Cup playoffs, and Santander Arena on Penn Street is an easy trip for Berks County families looking for a night of fast, physical hockey close to home.
Hosted by Reading Royals Hockey Club on BerksConnect.
