Formerly known as FanFest, Chop Fest features question-and-answer sessions with players and Braves execs, interactive attractions, baseball clinics and photo opportunities with players. (Some attractions will require a separate admission.)

The Braves introduced new mascot, Blooper, at the 2018 event. Last year's event also included the Braves' Hall of Fame induction ceremony — which had been been held at midseason in the past.
