The Orioles' annual offseason event, FanFest, will be held on Saturday, Jan. 26 at the Baltimore Convention Center, the team announced.
While few details other than the event date came out Thursday, the event is typically a driver in ticket sales and features fan-oriented events such as autographs, question-and-answer sessions with players and coaches, baseball activities, and memorabilia.
FanFest is annually a marker for where the Orioles are in their offseason, with past editions coinciding with some of their bigger offseason moves, such as the re-signing of Mark Trumbo in 2016.
However this year's event will likely be more about a first chance for fans to interact with the new people chosen to lead the Orioles' baseball operations and hear directly their thoughts in the traditional season ticketholder Q&A that kicks off the event.
