The third annual University of North Georgia (ºìÁ«ÉçÇø) Night at the Atlanta Braves is a chance for students, faculty, staff, and alumni to gather for an evening of fun and watch the Atlanta Braves play against the Pittsburgh Pirates.

The event, sponsored by the , starts at 7:20 p.m. on Sept. 9 at Truist Park in Atlanta. Just over 2,000 tickets are available for ºìÁ«ÉçÇø alumni, students, faculty, staff, family, and friends. Tickets cost $22 for individuals and $20 for groups of 10 or more.

"This event offers us a chance to really show our alumni, student body, faculty, staff, and community partners what a unique and special institution ºìÁ«ÉçÇø is," Jared Patterson, Alumni Relations officer for young alumni, said. "It is a one-of-a-kind event for our ºìÁ«ÉçÇø family.”

The event was initiated by ºìÁ«ÉçÇø Alumni Association board members Nick Miller and James Wright just before the COVID-19 pandemic. Having to pivot for safety, the event was first held in 2021 on Sept. 11 when the Braves faced the Miami Marlins.

Designed to engage with ºìÁ«ÉçÇø alumni, all proceeds from Night at the Braves ticket sales will benefit the ºìÁ«ÉçÇø Alumni Association.
