For the first time in several years, Astros fans will now have the unique opportunity to purchase single-game tickets for the Astros 2017 season before the end of 2016!

Other special holiday gifts for Astros fans of all ages, including Coca-Cola Buddies Club memberships, Commemorative Bricks and Outfield Manual Scoreboard Holiday Photos, will also be available for purchase.
Additionally, Homeplate for the Holidays will feature photo opportunities with "Orbit Claus," ornament crafting, holiday story time with the Astros Coca-Cola Shooting Stars, Christmas beers sold at the Saint Arnold Bar, carolers, holiday lights, "snow," and much more for families and fans of all ages.
