My friends the Mets are excited for you to know the below. If MLB and the Mets hadn’t spent the first half of the decade ruining the game and building the brand around some unsavory types, I might care.
The Mets will host Family Sundays, along with returning favorite ballpark promotions including Fireworks Nights and Block Parties.
FLUSHING, N.Y., March 3, 2025 – The New York Mets announced today the club’s ballpark promotions schedule for 2025 home games at Citi Field. The Mets are adding to the excitement at Citi Field with the introduction of Family Sundays, which will feature a ticket offer for four starting at $50, with pre-game entertainment on Mets Plaza and family-focused activities throughout the ballpark. Additionally, the Mets are adding a kids meal option this season, which will accompany the return of several fan favorite ballpark promotions including Mets Kids Club presented by Dunkin’, $5 Tuesdays, Fireworks Nights and Block Parties.
<<<Let me break in here. So 4 tickets for $50 and….and what? Am I supposed to be excited about $12.50 tickets? Are there fees? I tried to click the link and couldn’t get to the actual check-out but I see “Per ticket fees may apply”
I tried going thru the normal website and saw an offer for $16.50 tickets. Turns out for those, they had already included the fees! I think maybe perhaps these are the tickets for the offer.
<<So I’m not sure, but there’s a decent chance its actually 4 tickets for $66.
Back to the press release.>>
These new ballpark promotions come on the heels of the previously announced 30-item gate giveaway schedule for the upcoming season, along with 13 theme nights and four additional specialty ticketed package item games, which can all be found by visiting Mets.com/Promotions.
<<<which reminds me I need to go through that, it’s always fun to goof on>>>>
“Creating the ultimate fan experience and helping our fans make memories with family and friends is a consistent focus when it comes to developing our programming at Citi Field,” said Katie Haas, EVP of Ballpark Operations and Experience. “We had great fan feedback on our ballpark promotions last season and our new programing ensures our fans will have a unique experience no matter what day of the week they come to the ballpark.”
<<<That’s true Katie. The issues are you’ve built your brand around a vulgar first baseman, and a guy who did this to the customers so until he’s gone, I’m gone>>>>
Returning fan favorites, alongside new additions, will make Citi Field the place to be all season long. Ballpark promotions include:
Family Sundays: The Mets will introduce Family Sundays in 2025. For all Sunday home day games during the regular season, except holiday weekends (May 25 and July 6), the Mets will offer four tickets starting at $50, with pre-game entertainment on Mets Plaza and family-focused activities throughout the ballpark.
$5 Tuesdays: For all Tuesday home games during the regular season, a value menu featuring food and beverage items priced at $5 each will be made available around the ballpark. The $5 Tuesdays menu items will include 12 oz. Coors Light, 22 oz. Coca-Cola fountain sodas, 20 oz. Smartwater, Nathan’s Famous hot dog (Kosher, gluten-free and veggie hot dogs are available), regular soft pretzel and popcorn box. Offer is subject to availability, valid at select locations, and not available for vending and mobile ordering.
Kids Meal: The Mets will also introduce a kids meal in the 2025 season, for kids 12 and under, which includes a kids-size order of chicken tenders and fries served in a souvenir Mets helmet with a Minute Maid Apple Juice for $9.89. The new kids meal will be available every home game at select concession stands.
<<<That’s not the deal you think it is>>>>
Mets Kids Club presented by Dunkin’: The Mets will introduce a free version of the Kids Club in the 2025 season, making it accessible to all young fans.

Additionally, Mookie Wilson will be at most Block Parties, serving some secret family recipes from Legacy Catering, a mobile catering business founded and operated by Wilson and his family.
<<<Again with The Queens Crew? Did you not pick up that nobody likes them. Can’t someone talk Alex off the ledge with this one?>>>>
Fireworks Nights: The Mets will host eight Fireworks Nights every Friday home game from May 23 through August 29 (note: July 4 Fireworks will shift to July 3 due to the holiday day game).
