Braves offer opportunity to fans on upcoming Military Appreciation Night

The Atlanta Braves are inviting fans to join the team in sending our nation's heroes to a game at Turner Field free of charge.

Businesses and individuals can provide members of the military with free entry on Military Appreciation Night (May 23) by making a donation of tickets to the Atlanta Braves Foundation.

Donors of 25 tickets or more will receive four tickets to attend the game, along with recognition for their donation on the Golden Moon Casino Level LED boards.

Atlanta Braves players Brian McCann, Mike Gonzalez, Kenshin Kawakami, and Rafael Soriano, as well as the Atlanta Braves Foundation will be among those providing tickets to recognize the service and sacrifices made by members of our nation’s armed forces.

Businesses or individuals who would like to take part in Military Appreciation Night by making ticket donations should visit braves.com/military or call (404) 614-1444.

Special pre-game ceremonies on Military Appreciation Night will include a tribute to the brave men and women who have served our country, a performance by the Fort Stewart Army Band and a military flyover at the conclusion of the national anthem.
