Special Ticket Packages


Special Ticket Packages are back for 2026! Formerly known as Theme Nights, Special Ticket Packages provide all fans an opportunity to celebrate Guardians baseball in fun and unique ways. Throughout the 2026 season, fans will be able to buy Special Ticket Packages that include limited-edition promotional items and/or access to one-of-a-kind experiences.

While all fans are eligible to receive gate giveaways upon entry to Progressive Field regardless of ticket type, only those who have purchased a Special Ticket Package are eligible to receive the associated limited-edition promotional item. Similarly, while ballpark-wide events such as Dollar Dog Nights and Fireworks Nights can be enjoyed by all fans, only fans who have purchased a Special Ticket Package are able to participate in the included experiences (i.e. pregame events or receptions).

There are a limited number of Special Ticket Packages available for each game on a first-come, first-served basis and are subject to availability. Special Ticket Packages can be purchased ONLINE ONLY by clicking the “Buy Now” button below.

More Special Ticket Packages will be added throughout the season, so be sure to check back soon!
