“I think it’s going to be a great time,” team president and CEO Ahron Cohen said. “It’s a great time for people to get out of the heat and get ready for our Coyotes season. A great opportunity for families to come out and play ball hockey, get to meet the players, take selfies. Then we’re going to do a lot of Q&A sessions. I’m leading it off and then I’m going to put everybody to sleep, and then they’ll be able to hear the players talk afterwards.”
The Fanatics Coyotes Den team store will be fully stocked for the event with the newest Coyotes apparel and Levy Restaurants will be featuring some of their newest food items for the upcoming season.
Free tickets for the event can be downloaded on the Coyotes website using the promo code: FANFEST.
