The Winston-Salem Dash capped off their final home weekend of the 2026 regular season in record-breaking fashion, welcoming 32,482 fans to Truist Stadium from Friday, August 28 through Sunday, August 30 - the largest weekend attendance in Dash franchise history.
The historic weekend featured three consecutive crowds of more than 10,000 fans each night, including 12,316 on Friday, setting a new Dash single-game attendance record, 10,054 on Saturday and 10,112 on Sunday, as fans across the Triad came together for a memorable final weekend of Dash baseball.
“This was an incredible way to close out the regular season,” said Dash President and General Manager Brian DeAngelis. “To see more than 32,000 fans come through the gates over three days speaks volumes about the support this community continues to show the Dash. From Friday night’s record-breaking crowd through the final out on Sunday, there was an unbelievable energy throughout Truist Stadium. We are incredibly grateful to our fans, partners, staff and everyone who helped make this historic weekend possible.”
The weekend began Friday, August 28 with the Reynolds Employee Celebration, bringing thousands of Reynolds employees and their families to Truist Stadium for an evening of baseball, entertainment and a postgame fireworks spectacular. The celebration drew over 12,000 fans, setting a new Dash single-game attendance record and kicking off a historic weekend at Truist Stadium.
On Saturday, August 29, Truist Stadium transformed for Harry Potter™ Night plus free Hogwarts™ House Scarf giveaway. Over 10,000 fans filled the ballpark for a magical evening featuring themed entertainment throughout the game and final postgame fireworks of the season, presented by Candor Home Services. The celebration continued Sunday, August 30 with Bolt’s Sweet 16 Birthday, presented by Carolina Classic Fair. Bolt and the Dash welcomed mascot friends to Truist Stadium for his milestone birthday celebration as fans enjoyed the final regular-season game of 2026. The afternoon also featured the Dash’s Sunday traditions, including pregame player autographs, postgame Catch on the Field and the final Kids Run the Bases of the season.
The Dash thank the entire Winston-Salem community, corporate partners, Camel City Club members and fans throughout the Triad for their continued support throughout the 2026 season.
