Celebrate with co-workers and family members at our 12th annual event as the Miami Marlins take on the Pittsburgh Pirates 

In appreciation of the dedication and outstanding work of its employees, the University of Miami will host its 12th annual Family Day with the Miami Marlins on Saturday, April 29, at Marlins Park in Little Havana, when the Marlins take on the Pittsburgh Pirates at 7:10 p.m.

Tickets will be distributed for the last time to employees with a valid ‘Cane Card and cash only on the following dates, time, and locations:

• Coral Gables campus:  April 3, on the Foote University Green, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
• Miller School campus: Thursday, April 6, at the Schoninger Research Quadrangle, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Each regular employee, as well as contract employees, can pick up one complimentary ticket and purchase up to two additional tickets for $1 each; extra tickets will be available for $10 apiece. Children under 3 do not require tickets. Each ticket comes with a food voucher for a hot dog, chips, and a fountain drink or bottle of water.

You must have a valid ‘Cane Card (UM ID) to receive your tickets, and you must pick them up at a single ticket distribution session; you cannot go multiple times. You will not be permitted to bring anyone else’s ID to purchase tickets for them.

If you plan to sit with other UM employees, you must pick up your tickets together, at the same time, and at the same distribution site. Cash only will be accepted for all ticket purchases. Family Day tickets will be available for sale at all ticket distribution sites on all days while quantities last.

Pregame and Postgame Activities

The event will feature pregame activities for the entire family. Family activities and entertainment will be located on the West Plaza beginning at 5 p.m. Pregame on-field ceremonies will highlight the University of Miami.
