By - posted 2/10/2017 No Comment

KNBR’s 24th Giants FanFest takes place at AT&T Park, Saturday, February 11, 2017. The day typically includes live KNBR broadcasts on the field, player Q&As, free player autographs, places to take photos, a kids zone and more.

Expect a chance to roam the field and meet players like Hunter Pence, Brandon Crawford, Buster Posey, (sorry, no Madison Bumgarner in 2017) and more, plus a chance to take photos with the World Series trophies.

Please note that the lines to meet the popular players can be extremely long, so come prepared to be patient.

2017 Fan Fest Features

Entrances
Four entrances at AT&T Park will be open for FanFest: Willie Mays Gate (Third and King streets), Lefty O’Doul Gate (near the Lefty O’Doul Bridge at Third and Berry streets), Marina Gate (along the Portwalk behind center field) and Second and King Street Gate (Second and King streets). Lines are likely to be long, so we suggest getting to the park early. All gates will open at 10 am.

Q&A Theaters
The Dignity Health Q&A theaters are two of the most popular spots to visit during FanFest. They are located on the Virgin America Club Level, one at Section 207 and the other at Section 231. In each of these locations, you will find KNBR talent conducting live interviews with players, coaches and medical staff. Fans will also have the opportunity to ask questions of the players and featured VIPs. Please note that capacity in the theaters will be closely monitored and enforced. Fans will be required to exit the theaters at the end of each session.

Vouchers
Vouchers will be distributed from a table located near each theater on the Virgin America Club Level. Distribution will begin 30 minutes prior to each session. Vouchers can only be used for the next scheduled session.

Be Like a Giant
FanFest gives you exclusive access to the field and other locations around the park that you often don’t get to experience during the regular season. We highly encourage you to get a photo of you and your family and friends from inside the Giants Dugout or take a tour of the Giants Clubhouse and see the players’ lockers up close.

AT&T Park Hidden Gems
We encourage you to tour the Giants Press Box and see the field from the media’s perspective. You can also visit The Garden, located behind the centerfield wall, to see where fruits and vegetables are grown in this most unique setting. If you have never seen the three World Series championship trophies and rings close up, don’t forget to stop by the display case on the Promenade Level, located directly behind home plate, to view these treasures.

KNBR Broadcast Stage
From 10 am-3 pm, KNBR talent will be broadcasting live from the KNBR Stage in front of sections 127 & 128 interviewing Giants players, coaches and executives throughout the day. Fans can sit in the stands and both watch and listen to their favorite players and KNBR personalities.

Be one of the first to purchase Giants 2017 single game tickets. Tickets can be purchased in the Visitor’s Dugout, on the Promenade Level (section 115/117) and at the Willie Mays Ticket Windows located outside of the park along King Street.
