South Bend Cubs announce Independence Day events for July 2 and 3

SOUTH BEND, Ind. -- The South Bend Cubs have announced updates regarding their home games on July 2 and 3.

The game on July 2 will feature a giveaway of a red, white, and blue South Bend Cubs hat for the first 1,000 fans in attendance. Tickets are available here.

July 3 will feature a post-game concert by Seventh Day Slumber, a Nashville-based rock band. The July 3 game will also feature a special picnic package that includes a ticket in the Pepsi Stadium Club, access to a private restroom and cash bar, and a two hour all-you-can-eat buffet.

Tickets for the July 3 game are available here.

The picnic package is $40 and limited to 80 people. Tickets are available here.

Both games will feature a fireworks show.

The game on July 2 is scheduled for 7:05 p.m. and the game on July 3 for 5:45 p.m.

“With the earlier start time than normal, we thought this was the perfect idea to supplement a great night for our fans,” said South Bend Cubs President Joe Hart.

“This will allow the family friendly entertainment to continue with a concert after the game, that will also ensure it’s still dark enough out for fans to fully appreciate an outstanding fireworks show,” he added.
