Bring the whole team to the Draft Week Family Fan Zone!

Young fans and families are invited to join us for a hands-on, high-energy day of fun celebrating the NFL Draft in Pittsburgh.

Join us in the fifth-floor Mueller Center for tailgate-style food and beverages (available for purchase), games, and music from DJ Cake.

Kids can get creative with football-themed coloring activities, then jump into the action with cornhole, a football toss, and more.

It’s a family-friendly way to celebrate Draft Week, with something for fans of all ages to play, explore, and enjoy.

What else is on the schedule? Check out our full lineup:

  • Step inside the “home of the Immaculate Reception” and see Franco’s cleats, the turf where it happened, and two floors of artifacts from Pittsburgh sports legends.
  • See jerseys from six Western Pennsylvania Hall of Fame quarterbacks — George Blanda, Joe Namath, Johnny Unitas, Joe Montana, Jim Kelly, and Dan Marino — in this special Pro Football Hall of Fame pop-up exhibit. Plus, view original NFL Draft cards from the Steelers’ first-round picks.
  • Discover the history behind the Steelers dynasty in the “Super Steelers” exhibition, featuring championship rings and iconic artifacts from players, coaches, and fans.
  • Go behind the scenes of how the NFL Draft comes to life with a special exhibit presented in partnership with the Pittsburgh Steelers.

The best part? Young sports fans always score free admission, courtesy of the Kamin “Free for Kids” Initiative.
