Orioles announce 2020 promotional schedule
By Roch Kubatko
Celebrations that commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Negro Leagues, the 50th anniversary of the 1970 World Series championship and the 25th anniversary of Cal Ripken Jr.'s record-breaking 2,131st consecutive game highlight the Orioles' 2020 promotional schedule.
Individual game tickets will go on sale to the general public Thursday beginning at 10 a.m. Birdland Members will receive an email with details on an exclusive pre-sale opportunity that begins Tuesday.
Fans who subscribe to the free Orioles email newsletter will receive an invitation to participate in a special 14-hour pre-sale opportunity beginning Wednesday at 10 a.m. Subscriptions are available at Orioles.com/newsletter.
The first 20,000 fans 15 and older on April 25 will receive a 50th Anniversary 1970 World Series tote bag. All fans attending the May 9 game will receive a Baltimore Elite Giants replica cap. And the Orioles will hand out Ripken bobbleheads on Sept. 6 to the first 25,000 fans 15 and older.
There also are bobbleheads of Jim Palmer on May 30, the Oriole Bird on June 20 and Boog Powell on Aug. 22.
A 1970 World Series Brooks Robinson replica jersey will be given to the first 20,000 fans 15 and older on Aug. 8.
New giveaways include an Orioles beach towel on May 25, a soccer jersey on June 27 and a travel pillow on Aug. 9.
An Orioles floppy hat (June 19) and Birdland Hawaiian shirt (July 18) have returned for 2020 distribution.
The Orioles also announced that they will celebrate the 100th anniversary of the ratification of the 19th Amendment with several events throughout the year, including the return of the National Woman's Party's (NWP) exhibit "Standing Together: Women's Ongoing Fight for Equality," which debuted at Camden Yards in 2019.
Kids can run the bases after Sunday home games and the Birdland Summer Music Series returns for select Friday and Saturday home games from June through August - including Friday Fireworks and Women of Country Music and Saturday Roof Deck Sessions.
A complete list of upcoming promotions, concerts and special events can be found at Orioles.com/promotions. More theme nights and special events will be announced at a later date.
Opening day is March 26 against the Yankees at Camden Yards. All fans receive a schedule magnet.
