Players will engage with fans through Q&A sessions, interactive demonstrations (including a kids-only press conference and a cooking demonstration), playing on a drop-in hockey rink and more.
Autograph sessions will be held at both sessions, but, fans are not guaranteed access to autographs. Fans in attendance will be given a scratch card similar to the ones used by the team for Fan Appreciation Night. Prizes included on the scratch cards include access to scheduled autograph sessions, locker room tours, free concession items and more.
Each of the two sessions will also feature interviews with Penguins General Manager Jim Rutherford and Head Coach Mike Sullivan regarding the upcoming season and the team's Stanley Cup Championship run.
In addition to player appearances, fans will have the chance to browse a Hockey Hall of Fame trophy exhibit featuring many of the awards won by the team throughout the years as well as a jersey display visually depicting the evolution of the team's uniforms. Numerous photo opportunities, historical displays and other kids-themed activities will also be available.
Parking will be available in the CONSOL Energy Center surface lots as well as the CONSOL Energy Center Parking Garage located on Centre Avenue. The event parking rate for Fan Fest is $10.
The team store, PensGear powered by Reebok, and concession stands will be open during each session.
