This year’s games carry a pirate theme! Mascots from around the sports world gather for an event like no other, competing against each other in zany games including Obstacle Course and the Joust. Losers walk the plank!
Proceeds from the Celebrity Mascot Games benefit New Hope for Kids, an Orlando-based not-for-profit organization that grants wishes to children under the age of 18 who are suffering from life-threatening illnesses. Since its inception, New Hope has granted more than 3,000 wishes, focusing on the children of Central Florida. In addition, since the first Mascot Games in 1992, this event has raised over $225,000.
