NEWARK, NJ – (September 30, 2024) – With the anticipation of the 2024-25 season, the New Jersey Devils and Prudential Center announced today a multitude of arena upgrades including the launch of a new hospitality brand in collaboration with Levy, the market leader in world-class hospitality at iconic sports and entertainment venues, a new premium club space, and much more. This redefined fan experience is part of a continual rollout of enhancements to further elevate Newark’s Prudential Center as a marquee destination for sports and entertainment.
Eastback Kitchen, the newly launched official culinary and white label hospitality brand of Prudential Center, will deliver world-class hospitality this upcoming season, ranging from concessions to premium clubs and suites. Eastback Kitchen focuses on delivering fans an elevated culinary experience inclusive of the grit, boldness and flavor of New Jersey. The brand is inspired by the industrial spirit of Mulberry Street, formerly called East Back Street, which borders The Rock.
“Like me, so many chefs on our culinary team grew up cooking across Jersey, and we’re incredibly passionate about making sure the arena reflects the dishes fans know and love,” said Aron Zaks, Executive Chef of Eastback Kitchen at Prudential Center. “We spent the offseason out in the community, eating and taking notes to create our own recipes made fresh at the arena. From diner classics to favorite local restaurants and purveyors, we’re showcasing Jersey in every area fans’ experience hospitality at Prudential Center.”
This season, fans can enjoy more than 20 new signature offerings available at redesigned concessions destinations across all levels, reflecting New Jersey favorites and local tradition. Prudential Center will welcome Mighty Quinn’s to the roster, which can be found at Section 4. Fans will also experience new signage throughout the concourse at concession stands to ensure their favorite items are easier to find. Highlights of the new menu items include:

Heritage Kitchen, a pop-up food and beverage initiative that will support small, diverse businesses throughout New Jersey, will embrace global cultures and cuisines, and honor the culinary traditions represented through theme and heritage nights throughout the season.
“Launching Eastback Kitchen establishes a new era for hospitality at Prudential Center, ensuring new dishes, a Jersey-made focus for our fans with local partners, and a continued emphasis on inclusivity and cultural celebration with the introduction of Heritage Kitchen,” said Dana Seiden, Vice President, Partnerships, New Jersey Devils & Prudential Center. “We’ve spent time listening to our fans and are committed to providing a world-class food and beverage experience for everyone who comes through The Rock.”
While the kitchen heats up with excitement, Prudential Center is also proud to unveil The Pier Club, a new premium club space located on the second Suite Level of the west side of the building. The Pier Club, constructed by Phelps Construction Group, is a re-imagining of premium seating that provides 2-8 person modern seating options for year-round access to New Jersey Devils home games and more than 210 world-class events at Prudential Center, ranked as a Top 5 venue worldwide according to multiple industry publications.
