Some big events are coming to KeyBank Center this month, including one that they're anticipating will fill over 2,000 hotel rooms.

The NHL Draft is coming back to Buffalo

It's hard to believe that the NHL Draft will be hosted in Buffalo for the fourth time now. We've had it here in 1991, 1998 and 2016. This year, it will take place in Buffalo on June 26th and 27th at KeyBank Center.

The Draft will follow a decentralized format this year, meaning that many of the executives, coaches, and scouts will all be in their own cities. However, they're still expecting hundreds of prospects and their families in town to hear their names called. They anticipate that an estimated 2,200 hotel rooms will be used.

Concert season is in full swing

We are happy that concert season is here. Plenty of venues will be holding concerts in June, and KeyBank Center will be one of them. They're hosting a handful of concerts including a couple of legends who will be having their farewell shows in Buffalo.

Journey

Legendary classic rock band Journey is coming through Buffalo for their "Final Frontier Tour" on June 10th. It's hard to believe, but they've been touring for over 50 years now, and they're getting ready to say goodbye.

Barry Manilow

Barry Manilow will showcase his "Last Buffalo Concert" on June 30th at KeyBank Center. It's a show that was originally supposed to take place in April, but had to be rescheduled as he recovered from lung cancer surgery. All previously purchased tickets will be honored at the new date.

Forrest Frank

Contemporary Christian Artist Forrest Frank will be coming to KeyBank Center too! His "The Jesus Generation Tour" will be in Buffalo on June 8th with special guests Tori Kelly, Cory Asbury, and The Figs. All the info can be found below.
