Hartford Athletic unveiled their 2024 promotional schedule in coordination with the announcement of single game tickets going on sale today, January 31st. The Club’s sixth season brings their most exciting and diverse promotional calendar yet, which introduces a robust list of new theme nights, giveaways, and value promotions to proudly bring family-friendly entertainment alongside a world-class soccer experience at Trinity Health Stadium.
Many of the most popular theme nights and promotions from past seasons remain part of this year’s schedule, including six $2 Beer (and soda) $1 Hot Dog nights! The second ever Birthday Celebration for our mascot Dillon will take place on June 15th with an ice cream giveaway for the first 500 kids in attendance. Daym Drops Night, Athletic-con, Noche Latina, and Pride Night also make their returns to the promotional schedule.
Some new additions to this year’s calendar include:
April 6th – Pizza Appreciation and Autograph Day
Hartford Athletic will celebrate the official state food of Connecticut on April 6th for Pizza Appreciation Day. A full slate of pizza trucks will flood Trinity Health Stadium to make specialty pies and slices for fans to savor all afternoon. After the match, fans are encouraged to stick around for a special autograph session with the entire Athletic roster.
April 20th – $1,000 Cash Giveaway, $2 Beer $1 Hot Dog Night
The return of fan-favorite $2 Beer $1 Hot Dog Night also brings the chance to leave the stadium 1,000 dollars richer! All fans in attendance will be entered into a random selection pool, and one lucky fan will walk out of Trinity Health Stadium with $1,000 cash. See rules and regulations HERE.
June 21st – Dillon Bobblehead Giveaway
It’s our first ever Bobblehead Giveaway featuring our mascot Dillon! Be one of the first 1,000 fans through the gates to take home this historic piece of Hartford Athletic memorabilia.
July 26th – We Score, We Pour
The only thing better than $2 beer is $1 beer! If the Boys in Green score a goal in the first half of this match, all domestic beers and sodas will be discounted to $1 beginning at halftime.
July 31st – Grateful Dead Night
To celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the legendary Grateful Dead’s performance at Dillon Stadium in 1974, Hartford Athletic welcomes Shakedown CT, New England’s Grateful Dead Tribute Band, for a special pre match midsummer concert. Hartford Athletic players will also wear a one-of-a-kind, Grateful Dead inspired tie-dye warmup top, available for purchase in the Team Store only on match day.
Hartford Athletic will also continue to support many meaningful causes and community programs as well. First Responders Night, Veterans Military and Appreciation Night, Pride Night, Community Health Night, Pediatric Cancer Awareness Night, and their sixth annual Match for a Cause are all part of this year’s lineup.
