Toronto - Sunday the action will begin two hours prior to faceoff as the Rock will host Fan Fest from 4-5pm outside Gate 1 in the Air Canada Centre Galleria. Fans will be able to participate in a myriad of activities including getting up close and personal with the Champion's Cup.

At 4pm, Rock In-Game Host Shannon Kelly will welcome Generation Rock into Fan Fest as the 2012 season kicks-off.

Rock legends, and fan favourites, Dan Ladouceur and Steve Toll will be on hand to sign autographs as the multi-time Champion's Cup winners return to the site of many triumphs during their NLL careers.

Fans will also be able to test their lacrosse skills and take a shot in the Rock Shooting Gallery with a chance win some great prizes. Additionally, if you haven't got your hands on any Rock Champion's Cup merchandise as of yet, hats and t-shirts will be available at Fan Fest to ensure you're suitably attired for the banner raising prior to Sunday's home opener.

The Toronto Rock Cheerleaders will be performing during Fan Fest helping Generation Rock get fired up for the first game of the new season.

Also, hip hop recording artist Bone Crusher along with the Rezza Brothers will perform their hit single "Unstoppable" prior to the game featuring a never before released Toronto Rock championship remix.

Continuing with the championship theme, it's the Ontario Lacrosse Association Night of Champions recognizing 2011's top achieving minor lacrosse teams from across the province.

All of the action gets underway with Fan Fest at 4pm. Fans are encouraged to arrive early if they are picking up tickets at the Air Canada Centre Box Office. Those attending the game are also asked to be in their seats by 5:50pm in order to ensure they don't miss a second of the Championship Banner Raising Ceremony.
