The third annual University of North Georgia (Ä¢¹½´«Ã½) 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 Ä¢¹½´«Ã½ 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 Ä¢¹½´«Ã½ is," Jared Patterson, Alumni Relations officer for young alumni, said. "It is a one-of-a-kind event for our Ä¢¹½´«Ã½ family.”

The event was initiated by Ä¢¹½´«Ã½ 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 Ä¢¹½´«Ã½ alumni, all proceeds from Night at the Braves ticket sales will benefit the Ä¢¹½´«Ã½ Alumni Association.

The event is open to students on all five campuses of Ä¢¹½´«Ã½ and is sure to be a special time for the Ä¢¹½´«Ã½ community. Members of the Corps of Cadets, Fraternity and Sorority Life and other organizations will be in attendance.
