The Brooklyn Nets will be hosting their annual Practice in the Park, an open practice and fan fest at Brooklyn Bridge Park's Pier 2 on Sunday, Oct. 9.
The free, open to anyone event begins at 12 p.m. and will feature entertainment honoring the team’s celebration of 10 Years in Brooklyn.
This year’s Practice in the Park will include musical performances, a celebrity basketball game, awards, food, prizes and interactive activities for fans. Prior to the team’s practice, the Nets will host their first annual Brooklyn Park Classic, a game presented by SeatGeek, featuring influencers and celebrities coached by Nets legendary player Kerry Kittles and DiDi Richards of New York Liberty.
After the team’s practice is complete, Brooklyn Nets players will recognize deserving children from the Nets’ community partner organizations to gift their jerseys. Throughout the event, fans can snack from various local food trucks, partake in merch giveaways and interactive photo opportunities, including a station where fans can pose in a Nets press conference setup and enter to win a year’s supply of BioSteel. The Nets have also provided the event with an on-site barber.
