Live in-game promotions will take place throughout the game, and fans can get a sneak peek of the gameday experience by visiting concessions stands and the Trading Post, the official team store.

The FredNats will also educate fans on the official COVID-19 safety procedures for the 2021 season, including their clear bag policy, pod seating, and more.

There will be a ribbon-cutting ceremony with the Fredericksburg Regional Chamber of Commerce at 5 p.m. at the main gate on the concourse.

Ticket Holders will find a “bonus ticket” on their ticket accounts at the end of this week that will allow them access into the ballpark starting at 5:30 p.m. on May 4.
