BetMGM announced Monday it is now an Official Sports Betting Partner of the NHL’s Nashville Predators. The multi-year agreement includes BetMGM-branded signage throughout Bridgestone Arena, and plans to open a branded BetMGM restaurant and bar on the arena’s suite level.
Matt Prevost, BetMGM Chief Revenue Officer, said: “The Predators are a tremendous organization with one of the sport’s most passionate fanbases. We look forward to our partnership with the team and the opportunity to elevate Nashville’s gameday experience.”

BetMGM signage will be featured prominently at Bridgestone Arena, including an on-ice logo and on dasher boards during Predators games. The partnership strengthens BetMGM’s presence in the state following its announcement as the NFL’s Tennessee Titans’ first sports betting partner in 2020.
Nashville Predators President & CEO Sean Henry, said: “We are always looking for ways to enhance SMASHVILLE and bring a better experience to be the best fans in sports. Integrating an industry leader like BetMGM into our building is a tremendous opportunity and we hope to continue to grow our partnership in the years to come.”

The move is expected to boost BetMGM’s presence in a state where mobile gambling was legalized in 2020.. BetMGM is a league-wide partner of the NHL in both the US and Canada after expanding its agreement earlier this year following Ontario’s new legalized sports betting market.
The company’s portfolio of partnerships also includes the NFL’s Kansas City Chiefs: the Major League Baseball (MLB) franchise the Cincinnati Reds; the New York Knicks in the National Basketball Association; the NHL’s New York Rangers and golf’s PGA Tour.
