Twins Announce Plans For 1st-Ever TwinsFest At Target Field

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) -- The Minnesota Twins along with the Twins Community Fund announced Tuesday additional details for "TwinsFest at Target Field," which they are calling a "new twist" on a longstanding Minnesota baseball tradition.

While keeping the popular player autograph and photo sessions, this year the fundraising event will have new features, including increased player involvement, boardwalk-style amusements, special panel discussions, self-guided clubhouse tours, a walking tour of the ballpark and a showcase of the 2014 MLB All-Star Game.

"We're excited to bring TwinsFest home to Target Field," Twins President Dave St. Peter said . "Hosting the event at our ballpark gives us a chance to reinvent this great tradition, providing creative new experiences for our fans in a smaller, more intimate setting. As always, TwinsFest will serve as the unofficial start to a new baseball season while also helping raise significant proceeds for the Twins Community Fund and its many worthwhile programs across Twins Territory."

The event will run from Jan. 24 through Jan. 26, 2014 and will cost $20 for adults and $10 for kids 14 and younger.
