ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- The 2020 Tampa Bay Rays Fan Fest, scheduled for Saturday, February 8 from 11 a.m.-3 p.m. at Tropicana Field, will feature over 65 current and former major league players and coaches at various stations throughout the day along with Rays mascots Raymond and DJ Kitty. Rays Season Ticket Holders are granted early entry beginning at 10 a.m. Free tickets are required to access Fan Fest and can be claimed on the Ballpark app and scanned from a mobile device for entry. All fans 18 years and older must have a mobile ticket for entry. Children 17 years and under do not need a ticket to attend Fan Fest. Upon entry, all fans will receive a License Plate Frame, presented by the Florida Department of Transportation, while supplies last. Parking for the event is free.

Autograph passes for the event are sold out. Fans who purchased autograph passes will receive an information packet with the time and location of their autograph session via email on Friday, February 7. All proceeds from autograph pass sales benefited the Rays Baseball Foundation, a 501(c)(3) organization that includes the Rowdies Soccer Fund and is dedicated to improving the lives of those in need within our community, focusing primarily on education, youth development, wellness and social responsibility.

Among the free activities at Fan Fest, fans are invited to take a tour of the Rays clubhouse, courtesy of Sagicor Life Insurance Company; compete against Rays players at numerous tailgate games, including 22-player foosball, billiards, Pop-A-Shot, air hockey, giant Jenga and ping pong; and receive autographs from major league alumni throughout the day.

Fan Fest will feature a number of interactive activities for kids, including Reading with the Rays with Charlie Morton and Ryan Yarbrough, presented by Suncoast Credit Union, and a youth baseball and softball clinic with Brandon Lowe and his wife, Madison, as part of his Lowe’s Legends program. While at Fan Fest, kids ages 14 years and under can sign up for the Rays Rookies Kids Club, presented by Outback Steakhouse.

The main stage will also host entertainment throughout the day, including a Game Show segment with Tyler Glasnow and Austin Meadows, Raymond magic show and Fashion Show with Levy’s retail division Rank + Rally, which will unveil new 2020 regular season and spring training merchandise. The stage will also feature a panel with manager Kevin Cash, senior vice president of baseball operations/general manager Erik Neander, bench coach Matt Quatraro and pitching coach Kyle Snyder, in addition to a panel with team presidents Brian Auld and Matt Silverman.

Fans can visit the Lounge to play giant Pac-Man, a selection of video games, including MLB The Show, and take pictures with a larger-than-life Blake Snell bobblehead. In addition, fans can witness WDAE 95.3 FM/620 AM’s live broadcast from their mobile studio and a recording of the Tampa Bay Times’ “Sports Day Tampa Bay” podcast featuring Rick Stroud and Marc Topkin.

The Rays Baseball Foundation Clubhouse Corner and Charity Yard Sale return for the 10th consecutive year. In Clubhouse Corner, fans can find deals on team-issued postseason merchandise and authentic, game-used merchandise, including jerseys, helmets, bats and autographed memorabilia. The Charity Yard Sale will feature unique Rays items from the past and present for $5 each.
