Wish: I wish to attend Fanatics Fest!

Wish Summary: 13-year-old Tanner is a Boston Bruins fan from Massachusetts, who was granted the first-ever Fanatics Fest wish experience.

After seeing another local wish kid meet Red Sox legend David Ortiz at Fanatics Fest 2024, Tanner was inspired to wish for the ultimate fan experience in New York City. 

 Tanner kicked off the weekend with a shopping experience at Merch Village where he received $200 to spend on official league, team, and player gear, including exclusive Fanatics Fest apparel. He also enjoyed merchandise and activations from Mitchell & Ness, Lids, Topps, and more. In addition, Tanner received full access to all Fanatics Fest had to offer - live podcasts and panels featuring the biggest names in sports, immersive brand and league activations, hundreds of trading card dealers, exclusive memorabilia, and limited-edition merchandise, and so much more.  

As part of his VIP wish experience, Tanner enjoyed exclusive meet-and-greets with stars such as Tom Brady, Rob Gronkowski, Victor Wembanyama, Abdul Carter, Breece Hall, Davante Adams, Cooper DeJean, Ja'Marr Chase, and more.
