The NHL Awards are returning to Las Vegas.

The league announced today this season's awards ceremony will start at 4 p.m. on June 27 at the Fontainebleau Las Vegas.

“The success of our very own Stanley Cup champions, the Vegas Golden Knights, has solidified our city as a top NHL and sports destination, and we are extremely proud to welcome this year’s awards ceremony to Fontainebleau Las Vegas,” the resort’s president, Maurice Wooden, said in a statement.

The show will be broadcast live on ESPN. Tickets for the event will go on sale Friday.

The awards ceremony is a day before the NHL hosts the 2024 Draft at the Sphere on June 28 and 29.

Awards to be presented include the Hart Trophy for most valuable player, the Vezina Trophy for outstanding goaltender, the Norris Trophy for outstanding defenseman, the Calder Trophy for outstanding rookie and the Ted Lindsy Award for the most outstanding player as voted by fellow players.

Vegas Golden Knights forward Jack Eichel is a finalist for the King Clancy Trophy, which is given to the player who best exemplifies leadership qualities on and off the ice.

“We are thrilled to bring the NHL Awards show back to Las Vegas,” NHL Chief Content Officer and Senior Executive Vice President Steve Mayer said in a statement.

“Vegas has been the perfect setting for this annual celebration of our players’ accomplishments many times. This year, we are looking forward to hosting the show for the first time at the Fontainebleau Las Vegas,” Mayer said.

This is the 11th time the show has been hosted in Las Vegas and the first since 2019, when it was held at Mandalay Bay.
