Players from the Golden Knights and Henderson Silver Knights are scheduled to participate in addition to members of the Golden Knights broadcast team and VGK Cast.

There will be various games and family-friendly activities, including a question-and-answer session with players on stage. The first 500 fans in attendance will receive a free hat.

Food and beverage will be available for purchase, as well as team merchandise.

The event will be covered from 4-6 p.m. on the Golden Knights’ flagship radio station (Fox Sports Las Vegas 98.9 FM/1340 AM).

The last Fan Fest took place in February 2020, weeks before the NHL season was suspended because of the coronavirus pandemic.
