The Carolina Hurricanes Fan Fest, a free outdoor festival celebrating the Hurricanes 25 years in North Carolina, will place Friday, February 17th, 2023.
The festival is in advance of the Hurricanes’ long-anticipated outdoor game on February 18th, in which they take on the Washington Capitals at Carter-Finley Stadium.
Only resale tickets are available for the outdoor game, and they are pricey, but you don’t need a ticket for the Carolina Hurricanes Fan Fest.
On February 17th, the Fan Fest will be going on from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. on Fayetteville Street in Downtown Raleigh.
