About the Battle of Florida
These two have played each other for many years. Ever since both franchises started contending for the Stanley Cup, it's become a great rivalry. Tampa Bay captured the Cup in 2020 and 2021. Florida has won in 2024 and 2025. They've also met four times in the playoffs since 2021. Tampa Bay won the first two series, and Florida took the next two. There's plenty of history between these teams now, and neither fan base needs much convincing to show up when they play.
Panthers vs Lightning Games in Tampa
The Lightning host the Panthers at Benchmark International Arena in downtown Tampa. These games bring plenty of visiting fans across the state, and the atmosphere can feel a little different from a typical home night. Lower-level center seats offer a good view of both ends. Sections 108–109 are near the goal where the Lightning shoot twice, while upper-level center sections can be worth checking for lower prices.
Arena: Benchmark International Arena
Location: Tampa, Florida
Lightning vs Panthers Games in Sunrise
The Panthers play their home games at Amerant Bank Arena in Sunrise, west of Fort Lauderdale. It's where Tampa Bay fans can catch the Lightning on the road without leaving Florida. The seating options differ from those in Tampa. Center-ice sections offer a balanced view, and higher-level seats can be a good alternative when lower-level tickets cost more. Check the arena seating chart for your particular game.
