Events Description
FAN FEST
This year’s Fan Fest and Barbecue will take place over the Labour Day weekend as it has in years past and will be held Sunday, August 31st from 11am – 2pm at The Aud (Parking Lot A).
As always, admission to the Fan Fest and Barbecue is free for all fans and will include a number of activities including inflatable games, rides, an autograph session with Kitchener Rangers players, and, of course, a BBQ!
Net proceeds from BBQ, as well as admission to the exhibition games, will once again go to support Make-A-Wish Canada. Tickets for the game can be purchased at Fan Fest under the Kitchener Rangers tent.
The Rangers autograph session will run from 11:00 am -12:00 pm, with some extra availability from Rangers scratches (This means the autograph session will end promptly for players participating in the game. Signatures from every player can not be guaranteed).

Tickets to the Rangers’ exhibition game on the 12th will be $12 for adults and $10 for children under 12.
