MINNEAPOLIS-ST. PAUL, MN – The Minnesota Twins today announced their first 29 scheduled “Theme Nights” for the 2023 regular season at Target Field, a lineup that again showcases the diversity of our region, revels in pop culture phenomena and musical icons, delivers the pomp and circumstance of college pride, brings other sports together, and celebrates fun – all through the shared joy and experience of baseball.

Unique, premium giveaway items are available exclusively with the purchase of that game’s special Theme Night ticket package, available now at twins.com/themenights or by calling 1-800-33-TWINS. Theme Night packages are limited and expected to sell out.
