Upcoming homestand features the season’s first Beer Fest and Father’s Day promotions
The Fort Myers Mighty Mussels will host the team’s third-annual Marvel’s Defenders of the Diamond Night on June 14, when players will take the field in custom Super Hero-inspired jerseys.
Fans also will enjoy special Marvel-themed activities and promotions throughout the evening, which will be capped by a postgame fireworks show with pyrotechnics launched from behind the right field fence. After the game, fans will have an opportunity to purchase game-worn jerseys, which feature a Marvel twist on the Mighty Mussels’ logo and team colors, through an online auction to benefit Mussel Up for Southwest Florida, the team’s charitable fund.
A day later on June 15, the Mighty Mussels will host the team’s first Beer Fest of the 2024 season. Beer aficionados 21 and older can purchase a $20 pass that includes samples of more than 50 beers from local and national brewers; a separate game ticket is required. Additionally, the first 500 fans through the gates at Saturday’s game will receive a free Mighty Mussels grilling apron in honor of Father’s Day weekend. Saturday’s game is also Education Employee Appreciation Night, when all Southwest Florida teachers, administrators and support staff can receive free tickets by presenting a valid school ID at the box office.
