2023 Theme Night Calendar!

2023-06-06

Tons of Fun and Great Giveaways!

The Edmonton Riverhawks are set to reveal themselves as the Talus Balls amidst fun-filled games with tons of crazy themes and giveaways throughout the summer!

“We were thrilled when people told us our games were a ton of fun last year with great prices,” says Riverhawks GM Steve Hogle. “Now, with a little more prep time, we’re super excited to take it to a whole new level this summer! You won’t want to be arriving late for any games this season!”

From Baseball Goes Bollywood to Strike Out Hate to Girls Takeover, the games are geared to appeal to Edmontonians from all walks of life.

Free prizes like e-bikes and mini quads from RCM Motorsports or Kuma camping gear giveaways from ArrKann Trailer complement the wacky in game contests like the Chow Down Challenge from Century Hospital Group and Bet the House from RE/MAX - all of which come with $100 gift card prizes!

And then there are those sassy Talus Balls jerseys from Elite Promotional Marketing to go along with 3 other new themed jerseys to be revealed throughout the season!

”For five games we will be known as the Talus Balls!” Hogle adds, ”I’m not sure why the guy busted the balls after we initially teased our Talus Balls jerseys but we wanted to come up with something that’s fun and that all Edmontonians can relate to.”

The Talus Balls jerseys will debut on Friday, June 16 while the Home Opener goes a few days beforehand on Tuesday, June 13.

Our team has put together 27 theme games to enhance our “Fan First, Fun First” approach to baseball and to ensure that everyone is entertained at the ballpark! The doors to RE/MAX Field open an hour before every home game this summer and we encourage fans to arrive as early as possible in order to experience the full range of our theme nights- trust us on this!
