While Super Bowl LIX won’t be in Denver, Verizon is bringing a “first-of-its-kind” event to Empower Field at Mile High.
Verizon customers will be able to celebrate the big game at the Super Bowl FanFest at 2 p.m. on Feb. 9 at Empower Field.
The telecommunications company announced it will transform stadiums and venues across 30 NFL cities into a nationwide FanFest “like no other,” with football-themed activities on the field.
At Empower Field, football fans will be able to snap photos at the 50-yard line, tour the stadium, and meet former Denver Bronco Emmanuel Sanders, along with other NFL legends.
According to the news release, the celebration will feature a tailgate, an appearance from Miles the Mascot, food and drinks from local restaurants, live music from local artists, and much more.
Verizon customers will receive free tickets on a first-come-first-served basis. Customers can bring a select number of guests to the FanFest, Verizon said.
