It’s Opening Day for the Atlanta Braves, which means that Thursday, March 29 may as well be a holiday. The team has a bevy of events and attractions planned at SunTrust Park and The Battery Atlanta.
With temps expected to hover around 80 degrees, the Braves will host the Philadelphia Phillies of the National League East, at 4:10 p.m.. The game will usher in baseball season. It’s back, baby!
Atlanta Braves kick off Opening Day at SunTrust Park
There will be a parade at noon down Battery Way on featuring Braves players and coaches. The procession will make its way into the Chop House gate prior to their first batting practice of the 2018 season.
Look out for some familiar faces as well: Braves alumni will be on hand for a pre-game tailgate at the Coca-Cola Roxy and a post-game party complete with DJ and ecstatic dancing fans.
You know there’s going to be crazy swag as well. The first 40,000 fans into the ballpark will get a “Chop On” Tomahawk presented by Coca-Cola.
“Opening Day is an unofficial holiday in America, and we’re thrilled to welcome fans back to SunTrust Park and The Battery Atlanta,” said Derek Schiller, president and chief executive officer of business. “To celebrate the beginning of another exciting year of Braves baseball, we’re pulling out all the stops for our fans. We want to invite everyone to come join us for what should be a memorable day filled with exciting baseball and performances.”
