All available tickets for the eighth Packers Family Night Presented by Fox 11 were sold out as of this morning.
This year’s event, which will take place at Lambeau Field Sunday evening, Aug. 3, will mark the fifth time the Packers sold every available seat in the stadium bowl. More than 60,000 fans are expected.
The Packers also announced a handful of new activities and attractions for younger fans attending the evening.
Outside the stadium in the area inside the security barrier, sidewalk chalk will be available for children to create their best sidewalk art.
Inside the concourse, from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m., several craft areas will be available to younger fans, as well as other attractions, including airbrush tattoos, G-Force tattoos, a chalk graffiti wall, magicians and sign-making opportunities.
Parking for the event will be $5, with all of the net proceeds to be donated to the Packers’ Family Night partner, the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption, to support its Wendy’s Wonderful Kids foster care adoption program in Wisconsin. Volunteers for the group also will be in the parking lot and at the gates to share information about the program with fans and accept monetary donations for the foundation.
The Copps–Pick ’N Save Family Night Picnic again will take place in Lambeau Field’s east-side parking lot. It is scheduled from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. and will serve food items priced at $1, including corn on the cob, Johnsonville Brats, Nicolet Water and Kemps popsicles. Proceeds will go the Roundy’s Foundation (Roundy’s is the parent company of Copps and Pick ’N Save) to support nonprofit organizations working in the areas of hunger relief, families in crisis (intervention and prevention of neglect and abuse) and literacy.
For fans not attending the event, it will be televised in Green Bay on WLUK-TV (channel 11) in Green Bay and WITI-TV (channel 6) in Milwaukee. Hosted by Drew Smith and other members of the Fox 11 sports and news staffs, the live broadcast will start at 6:30 p.m.
