In collaboration with Budweiser and le Dindon du Québec, the west end-zone at Percival Molson Memorial Stadium will be better known as a party zone by Alouettes fans this season!
Beginning on Friday when the stadium doors open at 5:30 p.m., the area will be transformed into an open fan zone, allowing supporters to converge in an electric atmosphere from pre-game until the final whistle.
Once again this season, starting two hours before kick-off, Alouettes cheerleaders, alumni, and players, as well as team mascot Touché will be on-site outside of Percival Molson Memorial Stadium’s east entrance to sign autographs, take photos, and mingle with fans.
Already backed by some of the loudest supporters in the CFL, a drumline meanwhile will be adding to the aural ambiance, and major team sponsors will also be doing their part to keep things festive.
Here’s what to expect on Friday:
• Obstacle courses and colouring stations for children
• Face-painting booth
• RDS photo booth
• Alouettes autograph tent featuring:
-Bruno Heppell
-Éric Lapointe
-Peter Dalla Riva
-Brandon Whitaker
-Jamel Richardson
