Winter Warm-Up provides fans with one-of-a-kind opportunities while raising money for Cardinals Care, the team’s charitable fund that provides care for children in the Cardinals community.
Fans can meet their favorite players at autograph sessions, play interactive games, share memories with Hall of Famers, take photos with Fredbird, find collectible memorabilia, bid on one-of-a-kind items at live and silent auctions, experience live presentations and ask tough questions of players, owners, scouts, broadcasters and officials at Q&A sessions.
“The Winter Warm-Up is the perfect opportunity for our passionate fans to meet their favorite players and hear from our front office leadership about the upcoming season, all while helping kids here in our community,” said Michael Hall, executive director of cardinals care and vice president of community relations.
Many popular alumni autographs are free with an admission ticket, while current players require an autograph ticket available through a specific additional donation. Fans can purchase autograph tickets online starting at noon Dec. 9. Autograph tickets can be purchased in person at the Busch Stadium Box Office beginning Dec. 10.
Fans can visit cardinals.com/WWU for the latest details, including player autograph dates, times and, if required, additional donation amounts.
