Adventure Summary
Join Simply A Fan on this epic adventure for the 2026 Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony Weekend! This four day, three night excursion provides you multiple days to tour the Hall of Fame, walk Main Street in Cooperstown, meet current Hall of Famers for pictures and autographs (paid experiences) and of course enjoy the induction ceremony. This year’s inductees include Carlos Beltran, Andruw Jones and Jeff Kent.
Our hotel will be in Albany, 90 minutes away. The reason for the distance is due to the extremely limited accommodations in the tiny village of Cooperstown.
