The Portland Trail Blazers have announced they will hold their annual Fan Fest event at the Moda Center on Sunday, Oct. 4 at 4 p.m. PDT. The free event will be headlined by an open team scrimmage, but it will also feature interactive fan activities, appearances from the BlazerDancers and team mascots, giveaways and more.
Fan Fest presented by @DriveToyota is your first look at the 2026-27 Trail Blazers 🙌 Join us at Moda Center on Sunday, October 4, for a free, family-friendly celebration featuring
mascots, BlazerDancers, interactive experiences and an open team scrimmage! Free ticket required for entry. General admission seating. Get your tickets at http://trailblazers.com/fanfest.
Fan Fest will precede the Blazers’ preseason slate, set to open on Oct. 7, meaning it will be the first opportunity for fans to see the 2026-27 Blazers squad take the court. That also means it’ll be fans’ first chance to welcome new offseason addition Ja Morant and see franchise legend Damian Lillard play some live minutes ahead of his return to NBA games in a Blazers uniform.
In the past, the annual event has also featured rookie hazing in the form of karaoke performances. With no rookies on the roster this season, it’s unclear if there will be any lighthearted hazing or musical performance this time around (although maybe that just means rookie head coach Micah Nori will take the mic?).
Doors open for the event at 3 p.m. PDT.
