On the third day of training camp this Saturday, Canadian Tire Centre will play host to Fan Fest. The day will begin at 12 p.m. at the Gate 1 Plaza, while fans can begin lining up at 12:15 for autograph wristbands.
Fan Fest will offer activities for fans of all ages, including competitions like hardest shot, basketball, mini putt, mini hockey, and a five-in-one sports game, as well as a video game truck with LEGO and other games.
Fans can also take part in colouring activities, get their faces painted, or receive glitter tattoos, and visit photo stations including a bobblehead-box photo op and a Senators bench photo opportunity.
A DJ will provide music from the stage throughout the event, while fans can test their skills in a timed stick-handling challenge. Participants can scan a QR code to submit their time, with the winner to be contacted after the event and receive a piece of signed merchandise.
Senior Vice-President of Hockey Operations Dave Poulin will speak to the crowd at 12:30 p.m., and a surprise player will speak to the crowd at 1 p.m.
There will be food and beverages available on the plaza, including $3 hot dogs, $3 bags of chips, $5 bags of candy, and $5 sausages. Beer, seltzer, cider, and non-alcoholic drink options will also be on sale.
Fan Fest is a ticketed event. You can reserve your tickets, free of charge, here.
