The New York Mets are gearing up to host “Amazin’ Day,” a special fan fest featuring appearances by over 50 former and current players and managers, on Saturday, Jan. 25, at Citi Field in Flushing.

Fans in attendance will have the opportunity to meet and get autographs from several Mets alumni, current members of the team, and rising prospects. Attendees will also have exclusive access to parts of Citi Field that are normally restricted areas, such as the field, bullpen, batting cages, and clubhouses.

“Every fan I’ve spoken to this winter can’t wait for the 2025 season to start,” Mets President of Business Operations M. Scott Havens said. “The entire NY Mets organization has been hard at work this offseason to connect with our fans and do something meaningful for them, which is how Amazin’ Day came to fruition. Our fans bring a special kind of energy and magic to Citi Field, and we’re looking forward to seeing their excitement at Amazin’ Day as we show them a special preview of the 2025 season and celebrate this iconic franchise.”

Many of the players and alumni will also be taking part in live panel discussions throughout the event. Leadership from the organization will also be on hand to address the fans for fireside chats. Fans can also put their knowledge of the team to the test via live game shows. The Coca-Cola Food Hall in the Clover Home Plate Club will feature plenty of food and drink options.

The Mets Fantasy Camp will allow fans to take some swings in the team’s batting cages. They can also test their pitching abilities in the Mets bullpen. Additionally, fans can go to the left field landing on the elite level to participate in the Steal Home Challenge, presented by Mets Youth Baseball and Softball Camps.

A “Meet the Mets Memorabilia” pop-up will be set up, helping to educate fans on the team’s history. Self-guided tours of the home and away clubhouses and guided tours throughout the stadium will also be available. Topps will be setting up a booth in the visitors’ clubhouse for fans to get their pictures taken for their very own baseball cards.

Throughout the day, fans will have opportunities to get their pictures taken with many of the Mets players and alumni on hand, as well as Mr. and Mrs. Met and other mascot friends. Fans can also go to the official Mets press conference room and get their pictures taken during their own press conference.

The Mets Team Store will feature some of its biggest discounts of the year at the Winter Warehouse Sale. Ticketing lounges will also be set up throughout the stadium to offer fans information about ticket offerings for the 2025 season.

Collectors of baseball cards can participate in card breaks courtesy of Fanatics. PSA, the global leader in authentication, will also be on hand to grade the condition of prized trading cards.

The stadium’s Metro Market and K Korner will each offer a “Match Your Swing” experience, where fans will be tasked with matching the batting stances and swings of their favorite Mets. The Metro Market will also have a VR Home Run Derby. Additionally, Amazin’ Fest will feature a tournament in the “MLB The Show” video game.

Attendees can stop by the 360 Room to see what the Metropolitan Park project will look like when completed. The reimagined space will bring together fans, neighbors, and visitors through a new 25-acre public park, world-class entertainment, and unique dining experiences. The area would also provide improved parking and transit infrastructure.

Those with VIP tickets will have access to a VIP reception with ownership, players, alumni, coaches and more in the Delta Sky360º Club. Additional VIP benefits include all-day access to the VIP lounge in the Ownership Suite, with players and alumni set to make appearances there, a fast pass for autograph sessions, priority seating for stage programming featuring players, alumni and executives, and more.

Amazin’ Day is presented by Coors Light, Guardian and New Era. Other partners contributing to the event include Cadillac, Kendra Scott, Tunnel to Towers Foundation, Otis and Finn Barber Shop, Formaggio, Raising Cane’s, Gin and Juice, Sprinter Vodka Soda and more.

While general admission tickets for the highly anticipated event have sold out, VIP tickets remain available at Mets.com/AmazinDay.
