Score a goal by taking Caltrain to all Sharks home games at HP Pavilion. The Sharks’ preseason home opener is against the Anaheim Ducks Friday, Sept. 24, at 7:30 p.m.

With its San Jose terminal located across the street from the hockey arena, Caltrain service makes it easy to avoid the hassle and expense of driving and parking. A number of trains arrive from San Francisco and the Peninsula in time for the face-off. The last weekday and Saturday northbound train departs the San Jose station at 10:30 p.m. or may depart up to 15 minutes later if the game is still underway. The train makes all regular local stops. Trains stop at the Broadway and Atherton stations on weekends only.

Caltrain is a Proof-of-Payment system and requires passengers to purchase tickets before boarding. Ticket options include One-way, Day Pass or 8-ride tickets. Passengers are required to validate 8-ride tickets before boarding. Monthly Pass holders ride free through all zones on weekends. Open alcoholic beverage containers are not allowed onboard trains starting at 9 p.m.
