Tickets Go On Sale Jan. 21 Through Ticketmaster

Packers Fan Fest, the popular event which gathers Packers fans with their favorite past and present players, returns to the Lambeau Field Atrium March 13-14.

Among the players scheduled to participate in the fifth annual event are Pro Bowl safety Nick Collins, Donald Driver, Aaron Kampman and Al Harris. The weekend again includes a Friday Fan Fest kickoff event, autograph sessions and a tour through the team's locker room.

On March 13, doors will open at 3 p.m., with a kickoff event at 4 p.m. and programming until 9:30 p.m. On March 14, Fan Fest doors will open at 8:30 a.m., with programming from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.

Tickets, priced again at $85 per person, will go on sale at 9 a.m. on Jan. 21 through Ticketmaster and can be purchased online, over the phone and in person. Children 6-and-under enter free and do not require a ticket. Ticketmaster fees will apply.

A direct link to online ticket sales information can be found at www.packers.com.

Over the phone, tickets can be purchased by calling toll free at 800/745-3000. The toll-free Ticketmaster Express number, 866/448-7849, also can be used. It is a self-service information line utilizing an automated system. A TDD (Telecommunications Device for the Deaf) number also is available at 877/474-4TDD.

In-person sales will be conducted at a number of Ticketmaster locations, including Boston Store locations in Brookfield, Glendale, Greendale, Janesville, Madison, Milwaukee, Racine and Wauwatosa. Other in-person locations are Younker's in Green Bay, Macy's in Appleton and the Milwaukee Theatre.

The Packers' ticket office at Lambeau Field also is an option for in-person purchases.

A total of 3,500 tickets will be available and will be sold first-come, first-served. Because of Ticketmaster's ability to handle large numbers of simultaneous requests, the ticket application/random drawing system utilized in past years no longer will be needed. A limit of six tickets per transaction remains in place.

The ticket includes, in addition to entrance to the two-day event, admission to the Packers Hall of Fame and a tour through the Packers locker room. Parking for the event is free.

Fan Fest lodging available at Airport Wingate by Wyndham: The first 25 fans who book a two-night hotel package at the Airport Wingate by Wyndham in Green Bay for March 12, 13, 14 and 15, 2009, will receive their room plus two Packers Fan Fest tickets. The package price for two adults is $499 plus tax which includes the two Fan Fest Tickets worth $170. Packages must be prepaid and are nonrefundable. A maximum of three rooms may be booked per person. The Airport Wingate by Wyndham can be called at 920/617-2000 to make reservations.

Fan Fest presenting sponsors are Chevrolet and Goodwill Industries. Other sponsors include Citgo, Prodege, Smiles and the Wingate Inn. Additional Fan Fest details, with more to be announced, are available online at www.packers.com.

I have to talk to the wife about it.
I have been waiting for info on it, checking the Packers site.
I'd like to go......i haven't missed one yet. I'll let you know when i know. I'd probably have to try to drive to a ticketmaster location to try for a ticket. I won't do the telephone thing, as my phone is one of those "prepay" phones, and i'd use up all my minutes waiting to talk to someone.
I wonder how this new ticket thing will workout? Will they seel out in 30 minutes like they did the first time?

I talked to my wife about it this morning.
She said I should take our 16 year old son as a birthday present.
$85.00 a head is kinda steep though plus I gotta get a motel room if I wanna have any fun at all.

Sounds like one hell of a present though.

So, do you guys go the full two days? Is there really that much to do? Or is everything horribly overcrowded?

I think it took a week for them to sell out last year. I forget how I bought my ticket last year. I think it was two years ago I got a ticket for half price on eBay, demand wasn't that great and a lot of people bought extras thinking they were going to profit bigtime.

I am on the fence for going, I think $85 is a lot but I have a place to stay. The little imp that sits on my shoulder and whispers in my ear will probably say something about getting older, life is short, yada yada yada and I'll end up going.

But it'd be more fun to hang with some friends or Quasi-Packer Buddy, girlfriend doesn't want to go.

Cheesey, would you be up for the NFL Draft party?

I've never been to Fan Fest but I just love to go Green Bay.
Fan Fest would just be an added bonus.

Cheesey could you give us a rundown on your experiences at Fan Fest?

Ah, ye. It was kind of an unclear post, but the second part was just meant to be in general.

That said, I'd love to hear something by Cheesey and/or VegO aswell, if they want. ^^

Under "Trip Reports" there is one trip report from 2007.

Under "Pictures" I believe there are pictures from three different Fan Fests.

Great pictures and article. A shame that KGB won't be there this year though.

Looks totally worth the 85 dollar though, if I lived anywhere close, I'd go there. Might actually be better than going to a game.
