The BC Lions and the City of Langford are inviting fans of all ages to kick off the pre-season with a party this May.
The celebration takes place over the May long weekend from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Friday, May 22nd at Starlight Stadium before the Lions’ first pre-season game in Langford, where they take on the Edmonton Elks at Starlight Stadium.
Two local musical acts will take the stage during the event, country/rock band Born Reckless along with opener Jaxxee.
Alongside the live performances, attendees can enjoy a DJ, outdoor games and the chance to meet the players and get autographs.
“Events like this give community members the opportunity to experience professional football close to home, while reinforcing our commitment to activating Starlight Stadium as a venue for high-performance sport and major events that benefit our community,” said Scott Goodmanson, Mayor of Langford.
Fans who secure tickets to the May 23rd game on Saturday can also purchase an add-on ticket to the Friday event for $15.00.
Season ticket holders will be able to get their tickets beginning March 10th, while the general public can grab theirs starting March 31st.
For fans eager to kick off the Lions’ pre-season, this party is the perfect way to celebrate another season of football before the team hits the field.
