The three-time Atlantic League Champion York Revolution has announced the return of a preseason tradition. Fan Fest, last held in 2019 before the COVID-19 pandemic, will make its return to PeoplesBank Park, 5 Brooks Robinson Way, York, on Saturday, April 16.

The fan-centric celebration of baseball's return will kick off with a free community Easter egg hunt in the ballpark outfield for children ages 2 to 14. Sponsored by Checkmate Entertainment, the activity will feature three different hunts organized by age group. The ballpark's first-base gates will open at 9:45 a.m. for participants and their families, and the first age group will hunt for eggs at 10 a.m.

At 10:30 a.m., the main gates will open for free admission to the remainder of Fan Fest, which will start at 11 a.m. and include interactive games between players and fans, a player interview and competition segment hosted by Revolution play-by-play man Darrell Henry, and an open player practice beginning at noon and featuring batting practice. Fans will have the opportunity to observe batting practice from behind the protective screen, known as the turtle, set up behind home plate. Ballpark concessions will be available.

Fan Fest will also serve as an open house for fans considering York Revolution membership. Staffers will be on hand to discuss full-season, half-season, 25-game, 10-game, and WellSpan Silver Slugger memberships, and fans who make a deposit on a membership that day will receive an exclusive tour of the newly revamped visiting clubhouse and be the first to sign the back of the newly refurbished Arch Nemesis in left field.
