Thanks to Delta Air Lines and AAA Travel, two (2) lucky event attendees won a first-class trip to New Orleans! Guests also joined in as ‘revelers’ in the Night of Assists Second Line Parade. Musicians from New Orleans were on-site including Delfeayo Marsalis’ Uptown Orchestra, the John Gray Quartet and BEP Brass Band. Authentic cuisine and signature cocktails were available to all guests with jambalaya, beignets, frozen hurricanes and the classic Sazerac cocktail as featured items. Penguins players hosted casino games including blackjack, roulette and craps plus additional themed interactives such as The Bead Toss and The Fan Boat. Night of Assists: Unmasked was themed to the Big Easy with live music and entertainment direct from New Orleans courtesy of Blue Earth Artists. This season, the streets and vibes of New Orleans came to Pittsburgh for… Night of Assists: Unmasked.

Past event themes have included Under the Big Top, The Sweetheart Swing and The Pens Disco. Each season, the Pittsburgh Penguins Foundation transforms PPG Paints Arena into the Night of Assists charity gala hosted by your Pittsburgh Penguins and proudly presented by Highmark.
