WWE FAN FRENZY @ CROWN SHOWROOM – THURSDAY AUGUST 8 AND FRIDAY AUGUST 9

This special event occurs at the Crown Showroom on Thursday August 8 and Friday August 9. Eight two-hour sessions of Fan Frenzy are happening over the two days.

WWE Fan Frenzy resembles Fan Axxess, the interactive fan experience that has preceded WrestleMania in recent years. WrestleMania is the biggest event on the sports-entertainment calendar. This year’s Fan Axxess, in Toronto, attracted more than 30,000 fans in three days. Like Axxess, Fan Frenzy features a wide range of interactive exhibits.

One of the most popular features of Axxess, the Fantasy Play-by-Play, will also be available in the Crown Showroom. Fans, sitting in front of a big-screen television that shows exciting in-ring action, can call the match just like WWE commentators. They even walk away with a free videotape of their performance.
But perhaps the most popular of all features at Fan Frenzy will be the Autograph Booths that allow fans to see their favorite Superstars up close and in person. Several Superstars will sign autographs at each Fan Frenzy session, a fact that pleases WWE fans and Superstars alike.

At the Hall of Fame exhibit, fans can spread their palms into the sprawling life size hand moulds from Andre the Giant and the Big Show. Fans can get an even better understanding of the Superstars size and physique by snapping their pictures next to life-sized cutouts.

History buffs aren’t the only ones who’ll have plenty to do at Fan Frenzy. The festival has plenty to offer technophiles, beginning with an arena-sized screen plugged into the Microsoft XBOX that will allow gamers the chance to compete on the hot new video game “WWE RAW.” Several other XBOX kiosks will be spread throughout the showroom, allowing fans to test their skills against one another. The lucky fan that defeats all the other challengers gets the ultimate prize of competing against a WWE Superstar.

Live Band ‘Pacer 21’ fresh from the ‘Vans Warped Tour’ features in every session whilst roaming hostesses applying temporary tattoos to Fans who want to make their mark.

Also planned for Fan Frenzy is a ring-like stage where Superstars will appear to answer fans’ questions. A select few will even get called into the ring to compete for prizes in competition officiated by the WWE Superstars.

Several other areas, such as Body Slam and The Cage allow fans to interact with Superstars while competing against each other in WWE trivia and physical competitions.

Add to this, the opportunity to purchase Official Global Warning Tour Melbourne Merchandise in the Shop zone and the range of WWE DVD’s at the Shock Shop, and you have an event that no wrestling fan can afford to miss!

A limited number of tickets are available for three Thursday sessions (11.00am, 2.00pm and 5.00pm), however these tickets are selling fast.
