WINNIPEG, MB – The Winnipeg Goldeyes are set to make the summer of 2026 unforgettable, unveiling a promotional schedule Tuesday that is packed with exciting giveaways, community celebrations, fan-favourite theme nights, and nine dazzling post-game fireworks shows at Blue Cross Park. “We’re excited to roll out another incredible lineup of promotions for the upcoming season, filled with can’t-miss theme nights, exciting giveaways, and unforgettable moments for fans of all ages,” said Goldeyes Director of Sales & Marketing Dan Chase . “From fireworks and fan-favourite events to new entertainment and ballpark experiences, we can’t wait to welcome fans back to Blue Cross Park for another summer of fun, energy, and great Goldeyes baseball.” The 2026 home schedule begins in style Tuesday, May 19, when the Goldeyes host our Home Opener against the two-time defending Miles Wolff Cup Champion Kane County Cougars. The first 5,000 fans through the gates will receive an exclusive Goldeyes jersey available only to those in attendance that night. The celebration will continue after the final out with the first of the club’s nine post-game fireworks shows, presented by award-winning Archangel Fireworks. The Goldeyes will once again welcome thousands of students to the ballpark for a pair of School Day games at 11:00 a.m. May 21 and June 3, creating a memorable day at the park for young fans from Winnipeg and surrounding communities.

Fans will also have the chance to win major prizes throughout the season, including a Jamaican vacation July 24 and a trip to Churchill August 16.
