By @MichaelCaples –

The Detroit Red Wings announced today the details for the “Farewell Fan Day” at Joe Louis Arena, which will take place on Tuesday, March 21 from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m.

Tickets for the free event are available by attending an upcoming “Red Wings Day at Meijer” which gives fans the opportunity to participate in interactive hockey games and take photos with player cut-outs.

Riley Sheahan and Brendan Smith will be in attendance at upcoming “Red Wings Days at Meijer” to sign autographs, as well.

The “Farewell Fan Day” will be the final Fan Day event at Joe Louis Arena, as the annual event will move with the Wings to their new home at Little Caesars Arena.

This year’s event will feature a behind-the-scenes look at Joe Louis Arena with several unique photo opportunities for fans, including locker room tours, lowered championship and retired jersey banners and Al Sobotka’s famed Zamboni.
