Limited number of seats available as the Detroit Lions prepare to host the NFL…

The Detroit Lions will host an NFL draft event for season ticket holders at Ford Field.

Well, if you are a season ticket holder for the Detroit Lions, you’re in luck. The Lions sent an email to season ticket holders on Saturday informing them that the team would be having a private draft party for “Lions Loyal Members” at Ford Field on the first night of the draft, April 25.

The event invitation will be given to Lions’ season ticket holders on April 4, per the email, with tickets to attend priced at $25 per person.

The event will be hosted by T.J. Lang, the former Lions lineman and current radio sideline reporter with T.J. Lang, and Lions public address announcer Chris Fritzsching. Along with viewing the draft live, there will be “prizes, games, Ford Field tours, & so much more,” along with $40 in Lions Loot, which season ticket holders may use at Ford Field for food and beverages. Parking can be purchased for $40 when buying tickets, and the event will permit re-entry into Ford Field.

The event, despite being for the draft and happening just blocks away, is not linked with the real NFL draft, happening on Campus Martius down to Hart Plaza in downtown Detroit. To attend the NFL draft event downtown, fans must register for free using the NFL OnePass app.

There are now a limited number of tickets available in the NFL draft theater, where the picks are made, for the second and third days of the draft.

The free-to-attend NFL draft experience will include a “Taste of Detroit” tailgate featuring dozens of local Detroit restaurants and five Detroit food trucks on location throughout the event, football challenges such as a 40-yard dash, autograph stations to meet NFL legends and take pictures with Super Bowl memorabilia, and a number of youth activities hosted at Corner Ballpark, the site of Tiger Stadium in Corktown.

The experience will run downtown throughout the NFL draft, planned for April 25–27. The season ticket event at Ford Field is only happening on the first night of the first round.
