Minneapolis-St. Paul – The Minnesota Timberwolves today launched their new team app ahead of the team’s Home Opener on Friday, October 20. The app provides fans a unified experience where they can access team content, arena information and ticketing, all in one place.

Fans returning to the newly renovated Target Center will be able to use the app to:

• Navigate concessions
• Find nearest parking
• Determine best entrance for specific seat locations
• Access ticketing platform to manage tickets or scan individual barcode to enter the arena

Team content will continue to include news, standings, current roster and season stats, with the new addition of displaying live game stats alongside the up-to-the-minute score.

The app is now available for download on iTunes and Google Play.

The app was launched with previously announced partner VenueNext, an industry leader who currently works with some of the biggest brands in sports and entertainment, including Yankees Stadium, Levi’s Stadium, AT&T Stadium, Amway Center, Churchill Downs and the new U.S. Bank Stadium.
