2026 Fan Fest and Summer Showcase Details
Join us at Fan Fest Presented by Longo’s on September 6th!
For more than 25 years, Fan Fest & BBQ Presented by Longo’s has brought Rangers fans together for a day of fun, community and giving back. The annual event has proudly supported Make-A-Wish Canada (formerly Children’s Wish Foundation), raising more than $250,000 to help grant wishes for children with critical illnesses through Rangers Reach. Join us on Sunday, September 6 from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. in Parking Lot A at the Kitchener Memorial Auditorium for this year’s event.
As always, admission to the Fan Fest 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! This year, the Memorial Cup and J. Ross Robertson Cup will be in attendance for fans to take photos with and celebrate our Championship season.
TICKETS:
Tickets for all Summer Showcase Games are $5.00 and can be purchased at the doors on the day of the game/s. Proceeds from the games will also directly benefit Make-A-Wish through Rangers Reach. Please see below for the full Summer Showcase schedule.
BBQ:
Hotdogs, pop, water, chips, and apples will be available for purchase. The BBQ portion of this event will be cash only.
AUTOGRAPHS:
