Final homestand of Fort Myers Miracle season features fireworks, two-for-one specials, Game of Thrones Night and other fan-centric promotions
The Fort Myers Miracle are inviting all Harry Potter fans to the ballpark on Sept. 1 as Hammond Stadium turns into the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
Harry Potter Night on Saturday, Sept. 1 will feature a variety of themed activities, and Hammond Stadium will be serving Butterbeer at the concession stands. The Miracle also are giving away two tickets to The Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Orlando; contest details will be announced through social media, and the lucky fan must be present at Harry Potter Night to win.
The Miracle are offering a special $15 ticket promotion that includes a general admission seat, souvenir wand, a juicy Kayem hotdog and a fountain drink. Fans should use the promo code “Harry Potter” at checkout when purchasing tickets online, and then can choose to sit in a section based on their house preference from the Potter series: Gryffinder, Slytherin, Ravenclaw or Hufflepuff.
Fans are encouraged to dress as their favorite character from the series: Harry Potter, Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley, or even Severus Snape, Albus Dumbledore, Voldemort and Rubeus Hagrid.
“Our costume nights have been some of our most popular games all season,” said Chris Peters, Miracle general manager and president. “Hopefully some of our wizards and witches can put a spell on the players and carry our team to victory!”
Prizes will be awarded for the best costumes.
