by Reading Fightin Phils

Mar 09, 2023

The Reading Fightin Phils are excited to have our furriest fans out at FirstEnergy Stadium this summer during our Bark in the Park nights thanks to Humane Pennsylvania and Pet Supplies Plus. There will be five Sunday nights at America’s Classic ballpark where fans can bring their dogs along with them to enjoy the game.

Dog tickets are available for just $5 at these select games in addition to the paying humans. Pups have their own seat so they have just as great of a view as you do! Humane Pennsylvania and Pet Supplies Plus will have information tables set up in the Tompkins Bank Plaza at all Bark in the Park games.

“Humane Pennsylvania is quite proud of the meaningful partnership it has built with the Reading Fightin Phils over the years,” said Lauren Pignetti – Director of Development. “Bark in the Park Nights allows us to share our mission within the community, and it gives local families the chance to enjoy a fun-filled, dog-friendly night at the ballpark!”

Bark in The Park Nights:

  • Sunday, July 2 at 5:15 vs Richmond
  • Sunday, July 16 at 5:15 vs Portland
  • Sunday, July 30 at 5:15 vs Binghamton
  • Sunday, August 20 at 5:15 vs Somerset
  • Sunday, September 3 at 5:15 vs New Hampshire

With a large ballpark, fans can have the opportunity to take their dogs out for some fresh air, get lots of affection from other fans, and enjoy America’s pastime. The R-Phils will have drinking water in multiple areas, as well as a separate space for pets to do their business. Join us at America’s Classic Ballpark with your best friend to make memories that will last a lifetime!
