Each season, the Columbus Blue Jackets Foundation teams up with the Jackets players, wives, coaches, and broadcasters to host the HOCKEY FEST and AUCTION - a day long extravaganza throughout Nationwide Arena of games, autograph sessions, locker room tours, interactive photo stations, auction, and more to benefit the Foundation’s mission.


This exciting opportunity is for fans of all ages to meet the Columbus Blue Jackets players and wives in an interactive and informal setting. HOCKEY FEST games hosted by the players  and wives engage children and adults in competition with their on-ice favorites, locker room tours and give guests a behind the scenes look at a game night routine.  Be sure to visit BEST BUY ZONE and compete with Blue Jackets celebrities on Play Station, Wii, XBox and more!
