Hyundai Motor North America announced the renewal and extension of its long-standing partnership with the Atlanta Braves through the 2029 season, solidifying the automotive brand's commitment to the Braves organization and the Atlanta community.
Since 2014, Hyundai has been a key partner of the Braves, including the franchise's entire tenure at Truist Park and The Battery Atlanta. This renewed commitment underscores Hyundai's dedication to supporting live sports and engaging with baseball’s passionate fanbase.
As part of the renewed partnership, Hyundai maintains prominent visibility at Truist Park, including:
- Stadium Signage: Prime outfield wall placements in Left Field and seating bowl signage behind the Visitors Dugout, viewable by fans during TV broadcasts and in-stadium attendance.
- Radio & TV Broadcast Sponsor: Presenting sponsor of Braves Radio Network (BRN) Sunday broadcasts reaching 170 markets across eight states – the largest radio network in professional sports – and BravesVision, the team’s owned and operated television network.
- Alumni Sunday: Presenting sponsor of ‘Alumni Sunday presented by Hyundai’, held before every Braves Sunday home game at the Georgia Power Pavilion in The Battery Atlanta, where fans enjoy free autographs from notable Braves alumni.
- Community Giving: Since 2019, Hyundai Hope on Wheels—supported by Hyundai Motor America and its more than 855 U.S. dealers—has partnered with Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta to invite a pediatric patient to throw the ceremonial first pitch at a Braves’ home game. This builds on Hyundai Hope on Wheels’ more than $7.2 million in support of pediatric cancer research and care for Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta since 2005.
“We’re excited to announce our renewed partnership with the Atlanta Braves,” said Sean Gilpin, chief marketing officer, Hyundai Motor America. “This partnership is especially important to us, not only because of our ongoing commitment to live sports and sports fans, but because of our relationship with the state of Georgia and all the Hyundai Motor Group Metaplant America employees who call it home. We’re looking forward to what this continued partnership will bring.”
“We are happy to extend our long-time partnership with Hyundai and have long valued their impact both on our organization and across the Atlanta community,” said Atlanta Braves Senior Vice President, Corporate & Premium Partnerships Jim Allen. “Hyundai has been a trusted and valued partner over the years, and their outstanding lineup of vehicles reflects the same commitment to performance and reliability that we strive for every day. We look forward to continuing our collaboration and growing this partnership for years to come.”
This MLB partnership is one component of Hyundai’s ongoing commitment to live sports which also includes activations around professional football, college basketball, and the FIFA World Cup.
