Rockies Fest is always great, but it’s especially notable in 2026 given the significant front office and coaching changes the Colorado Rockies have made.
Still, it’s great to be at Coors Field (even though it’s extraordinarily cold out!), eat some ballpark food, and hang out with other fans and players.
Just to get everyone in the mood, here’s a video from 9News.
This link will take you to the official program if you’d like to plan ahead.
Me, I really enjoy the panels with prospects discussing their MLB experience, and I also like roaming around those parts of Coors Field that generally are not available to the public. (Last year, I learned where the visiting team’s weight room was located, which, really, I had no idea!)
I suspect there will be lots of folks at the front office panels, too.
Tomorrow’s “This Week in Purple” will be a discussion thread for the day’s activities. If you’ll be there, perhaps we can arrange a meet-up. If you’re not, we’ll try to give you a sense of what’s going on.
But for tonight, what are you looking forward to tomorrow if you’re attending? And if you’re not, what do you want us to try to learn about?
Maybe we’ll get an announcement on that fifth starter . . . .
Hope to see folks out at the ballpark!
