4th Annual TwinsFest Best Yet


Target Field played host to the 2017 Minnesota TwinsFest this past weekend. Over 60 current and former players signed autographs and played games with Twins fans from all over Twins Territory. FILO Productions, Inc. produced interactive games in the Legends Club, Metropolitan Club and the Champions Club for the Minnesota Twins, at this years TwinsFest.

Fans and Players alike competed on the main stage of the Champions Club in games like Fan Feud, Minute to Win It, Bingo, Tattletails, Password and brand new to TwinsFest this year, Lip Sync Battles. The new contest was the highlight of the weekend and included Brian Dozier lip-syncing Whitney Houston, Tori Hunter jamming out to Slick Rick’s Lodi Dodi, and even included a sensitive side of Trevor May, as he performed Colors of the Wind from Disney’s Pocahontas.

The Legends Club and Metropolitan Club were filled with interactive games like Pop-a-Shots, Human Foosball, Giant Connect 4, a Video Arcade and much more. Fans had the opportunity to not only win prizes but also compete against their favorite Minnesota Twins Players all weekend at TwinsFest.

Each year FILO creates new and unique ideas with the Minnesota Twins, as well as providing complete setup and teardown for the event. FILO also coordinates with Twins staff and Players on-site for all activities, and manages the FOX Sports North stage in the Champions Club. More than 10 interactive games in the Legends Club and Metropolitan Club are designed, produced and executed for TwinsFest, by FILO Productions, Inc.

FILO Manages FSN MN Wild Viewing Party


On January 14th, FILO Productions took part in the FOX Sports North Minnesota Wild Viewing Party at the Guidant John Rose Minnesota Oval in Roseville. As fans skated around the outdoor rink and played some pickup hockey, they were able to catch their favorite hockey team play on the JumboTron! People in attendance were blessed with the professional mixing of tunes by the one and only, DJ Woody. His speaker system brought the house down with a fundamental fusion of todays hits and classic jams. FILO also manned the “Slap Shot Challenge” inflatable where contestants could test their skills at firing pucks through multiple targets.

The Dallas Stars played host to the Minnesota Wild in what turned out to be a very irregular hockey matchup. The Wild came out smoking hot with a four-goal advantage in the first period. With the wild resting on a comfortable lead, the Stars fired back with four goals of their own and we found ourselves a tie halfway into the third period. With 6:45 remaining in the third, Wild rising star Jason Zucker made it a 5-4 contest, which eventually sealed the victory for the Wild in regulation.

FILO’s responsibilities included: transportation of all equipment; set-up and installation of the hockey inflatable, DJ booth and A/V system; booking one of the Midwest’s finest DJ’s in Woody McBride; managing the “Slap Shot Challenge” inflatable; and strike/tear down of all equipment.
