Padres Release Details for 2024 FanFest
The San Diego Padres have announced the date for the 2024 Fan Fest, and it will take place after the team's Seoul Series.
According to the team, Fan Fest will occur on March 24th, after the Padres take on the Los Angeles Dodgers for their two-game mini-series to start the season.
The series with the Dodgers will take place from March 20-21 in Seoul, South Korea. Fan Fest will be held from 12:30 to 5:30 p.m.
Many of the Padres top players will be scheduled to attend. Manny Machado, Fernando Tatis Jr., Xander Bogaerts, Joe Musgrove, Yu Darvish and manager Mike Shildt are among those who will attend.
Padres' alumni will also attend, such as Randy Jones, Trevor Hoffman, Mark Loretta, Steve Finley, Garry Templeton and more.
Admission is free for Padres FanFest, but fans are required to redeem digital tickets on Padres.com/FanFest. Tickets will be available for the public to claim on Friday, February 16th. Padres' season ticket members will enjoy priority access before the general public.
In addition, the newly renovated Gallagher Square will be unveiled during a ribbon-cutting ceremony before the start of FanFest. It will be the first opportunity for fans to experience the new layout and have the chance for fans to see the relocation of Tony Gwynn's statue.
Fans can enter Gallagher Square through Balboa Gate and walk through the new Tony Gwynn Tunnel beneath the statue to see and hear all about the Hall of Famer's life.
The Padres will have Q&As for many of the special attendees, and a celebrity/alumni softball game will take place at 3:30 p.m. It will be a fun opportunity for Padre fans all around to get their first unofficial glimpse of the team and enjoy themselves at the ballpark.
