Mediapro Canada selected to provide production mobile unit for NHL Heritage Classic


TORONTO – Mediapro Canada announced today its broadcast services division was selected to provide the production mobile unit for the pre- and post-game shows and intermission entertainment at the upcoming Tim Hortons NHL Heritage Classic.

The outdoor hockey game, which will feature the Toronto Maple Leafs versus the Buffalo Sabres, will be played at the Tim Hortons Field in Hamilton, Ontario on March 13.

Mediapro Canada “will bring its 4K/HD multiformat mobile unit Odyssey to Hamilton to produce coverage of the pre- and post-game shows and intermission entertainment – including superstar pop-punk performer and TikTok heavy-hitter Willow who will headline the event’s pre-game show,” a press release says.

The game itself will air on Sportsnet, TVA Sports and NHL Live in Canada, as well as on TNT in the U.S.

“The appointment is the third production for a North American major sports league in less than five months,” the release says. Mediapro also provided the 2021 Grey Cup in-house feed and was selected last month to provide a mobile unit to produce studio coverage for the 71st NBA All-Star Game.
