Albuquerque Isotopes News Release
The Albuquerque Isotopes have announced the highly-anticipated 2021 promotional schedule for the club's upcoming 2021 season. The campaign is jam-packed with 12 Fireworks shows including a July 4 Fireworks Extravaganza, six Mariachis games and other theme nights. There will also be 20 giveaways, including bobbleheads, hats, beer steins and replica jerseys, just to name a few.
The Isotopes launch the 60-game home-slate of the 2021 season with Opening Night, presented by Gonstead Physical Medicine, on Thursday, May 6. Opening Night will also feature the first of six Mariachis de Nuevo México contests held this season at Rio Grande Credit Union Field at Isotopes Park. Opening Night will mark 617 days since an Isotopes game was played in Albuquerque (Aug. 29, 2019).
The Isotopes are once again home on July 4, featuring the biggest post-game Fireworks Extravaganza of the season, presented by Enterprise Bank & Trust.
The Mariachis series, presented by Modelo Especial, continues on June 5, featuring a post-game Fireworks show presented by Modelo Especial. The Mariachis will return on July 3, also featuring post-game Fireworks, presented by Rio Grande Credit Union. The first 2,000 fans 16 and older to enter the ballpark for the fourth Mariachis contest of 2021 on Aug. 1 will receive an Adult Mariachis Jersey, courtesy of Palo Verde Generating Station. Another post-game Fireworks show, presented by US Bank will accompany the fifth Mariachis game of the season on Aug. 28. Wrapping up the 2021 Mariachis schedule will be on the final home game of season, Sept. 14, and feature a one-of-a-kind Musical Mariachi Bobblehead for the first 3,000 fans, courtesy of Pepsi. This game will also be Taco Tuesday, featuring Taco specials throughout the ballpark.
For the third time in team history, the Isotopes will once again become the Albuquerque Green Chile Cheeseburgers for one night only on July 31, presented by Blake's Lotaburger and featuring post-game Fireworks. The Isotopes will also rebrand as the Dukes on August 7 for Dukes Retro Night, which will feature a post-game Fireworks show presented by New Mexico Mutual.
August 6 will be Kindness Night- at RGCU Field at Isotopes Park. The day will be a tribute to the motto of the late community beacon Jennifer Riordan, who tragically lost her life aboard an airplane in 2018. Jennifer reminded everyone, "Always remember to be kind, loving, caring and sharing." The first 3,000 fans will receive a Kindness Hat, courtesy of The Jennifer Riordan Foundation.
Other highlights of the promotional schedule include a Face Mask giveaway on May 21 (courtesy of Rio Grande Credit Union), Pride Night on June 3 featuring an Isotopes Pride Flag, two Youth Jersey Giveaways (June 25 presented by PULLTOGETHER.ORG and July 18 presented by Lovelace Health System), Beer Steins (courtesy of Miller Lite) on July 16 and Orbit Bobbleheads (courtesy of Eastern New Mexico University & the City of Portales) on Sept. 10.
The promotional schedule is subject to change due to any impact of COVID-19 on the Isotopes schedule. Additionally, all Fireworks shows are weather-permitting.
Tickets for individual Isotopes games will be sold on a month-by-month basis so that the organization can adjust to potentially changing protocols and seating capacity allowances. Tickets for the 12 games scheduled for May are slated to go on sale to the general public on April 28. More information regarding ticket availability will be announced soon.
