The 2017 Detroit Tigers Winter Caravan and TigerFest are in the books, but that doesn’t mean that you can’t start planning for the 2018 event.

Every year, the Detroit Tigers organizes a grand event that brings fans and players together at Comerica Park. Rain, shine, snow, or wind, Comerica Park is loaded with thousands of fans who love their Tigers.

Fans come from the Detroit area, West Michigan, and all over the state to get face-to-face with their favorite players, the coaches, and the executives. Favorite faces and voices from the media are also there to interview players and share their favorite moments from the previous year.

TigerFest is one of the most affordable ways to get into Comerica Park. Having a ticket gives you full access to places that you normally wouldn’t get during a game. It also gives you more access than you would get if you took a tour of the park on an away-day. And, the best part is that there are players wandering all around – you don’t get that during away-day tours.

TigerFest tickets usually go on sale in the middle of December. The team announces the sale date via email and on their official MLB website. Usually, the tickets go on sale on a Wednesday or Thursday in the late mornings. It is best to buy them as soon as they go on sale because they tend to sell out that day. Tickets will either be mailed to you or you can access them online. I personally like to have them mailed to my house, because they can be autographed. In 2017, adult tickets cost $28 and children’s (13 and under) tickets were $14.

Here are a few other reasons to visit TigerFest in 2018.
