Nashville Sounds announce free Fan Fest with tickets and giveaways

The Nashville Sounds will bring back Sound Check Fan Fest for its third year at First Horizon Park on Saturday, January 31, from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. The free event is positioned as the club’s official offseason kickoff, offering fans an early look at promotional nights, the chance to purchase single-game tickets and mini-plans, and exclusive ticket offers available only to attendees.

Fan Fest stitches practical opportunity into a festive setting. Sounds players, alumni, and coaches will be on hand for meet-and-greet and autograph sessions, while staff members will walk visitors through ballpark upgrades and new food and beverage options planned for the 2026 season. Complimentary hot dogs and soda will be served, making the three-hour event a family-friendly way to preview the season without committing to a ticket upfront.

Raffle prizes will give fans more than memories to take home. Guests can enter to win signed memorabilia, ballpark experiences, and exclusive merchandise, with the chance to win items tied directly to the team and upcoming promotional nights. For fans looking to lock in seats, single-game ticket windows will be open and club representatives will assist with questions about mini-plans and other membership options.

“We are excited for the opportunity to engage with the community and get all of Middle Tennessee excited about the start of baseball season during Sound Check Fan Fest,” said Adam English, Sounds General Manager and Chief Operating Officer. “Our staff has spent the offseason planning for another exciting season of baseball, and we can’t wait to show off what we have been working on and what we have in store for our amazing fans this year.”

The event doubles as a practical briefing on what’s new at First Horizon Park. Staff will highlight concession additions and ballpark improvements that affect game-day experience, from food and beverage variety to seating and guest services. That makes Fan Fest a useful stop for season-ticket holders and casual attendees alike: you can handle ticket business, test new concessions, and pick up swag or raffles all in one visit.

Mark your calendar and plan to arrive early; the ceremony-style atmosphere means popular autograph lines and raffle entries can move quickly. For fans eager to stake out the best promotional nights or customize a mini-plan, Fan Fest is the earliest and most direct way to do it. The event sets the table for a full Triple-A season at First Horizon Park and gives the Middle Tennessee community a hands-on preview of what to expect when play begins.
