About Pride Night 2024

Indy Pride Parade Participation

On June 8, 2024, Indianapolis Indians staff members participated in the Indy Pride Parade downtown. Alongside the Indians-branded truck donning Pride flags and rainbow balloons, staff members walked through the streets of Indy handing out Indians Pride Koozies to parade viewers.

Pregame and In-Game

Prior to the game, Indians employees gave away branded Pride Koozies to the first 1,000 fans through the gates. To kick off the game, Bryan Ruby, singer-songwriter and founder of the non-profit organization Proud To Be In Baseball, sang the National Anthem. With the night being a doubleheader, Ruby also performed some of his original songs in the Center Field Plaza during the break between the two games.

During the game, the Indians displayed facts about the LGBTQ+ community in Indianapolis on the video boards. In addition, all of the music playing throughout the ballpark during the game was recorded by LGBTQ+ artists.

Indians-branded Pride baseball caps were made available for purchase in a special ticket bundle offer, or were available at the game at the Victory Field gift shops.
