After careful consideration and concern for the health and well-being of fans, employees and players, the Royals announced on Tuesday that Royals FanFest 2021 presented by Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Kansas City has been canceled. The original event was scheduled for Jan. 29 and 30, 2021. 

Royals FanFest has been the annual winter event that thousands attend every year. The Royals determined that staging an in-person Royals FanFest the way fans have enjoyed over the years would not be possible this coming January. 

The Royals also announced that FanFest 2022 will be held Jan. 28 and 29 at Bartle Hall at the Kansas City Convention Center. Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Kansas City will return as title sponsor. Schedules and more details will be released at a later date.
