The free-of-charge event is open to the public and gives Panthers fans their first look at the team as they prepare for the 2018 season.
And while practice doesn’t start until 6:30 p.m., the fun starts at 4 with on-field performances by the TopCats, PurrCussion and Sir Purr. Plus, there’s plenty of fun activities for kids, interactive games, face painting and more.
