The Big Pod Machine: Reds off season, Redsfest and Thanksgiving
Reds Beat Reporter Gordon Wittenmyer and Sports Reporter Pat Brennan discuss the Reds off season and whats coming up
The Cincinnati Reds announced the popular Reds Caravan won’t take place this offseason because of the need to move Redsfest to Jan. 2026.
The Reds’ announcement reads as follows: “Fans, due to the unique timing of Redsfest, which is scheduled for January 16-17, 2026 at the Cincinnati Convention Center, the Reds Caravan will not take place this offseason. We look forward to returning the Reds Caravan to visit with fans throughout Reds Country in future years!”
In Jan. 2025, the Reds Caravan made 14 fan stops in Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky and West Virginia.
In June, the Reds announced Redsfest, the team’s two-day fan fest that wasn’t held last offseason because of Duke Energy Convention Center renovations, would return Jan. 16-17, 2026, at the convention center.
