It’s time once again for St. Louis canines to “bark” on the Cardinals at Busch Stadium on Saturday, June 16 for the eighth annual Purina® Pooches in the Ballpark event, presented by Schnucks®.

WHAT:          More than 200 dogs, along with their owners, are invited to sit in a special “pooches” section of the ballpark. Tickets for this year’s event go on sale at 10 a.m. on Friday, April 27 at cardinals.com/pooches. The cost is $115 per person (dogs get in the stadium for free) and will be available on a first come, first served basis. Tickets to last year’s game sold out in under a week, so  St. Louis dog owners are encouraged to act fast to secure their seats and enjoy a day at the ballpark with their four-legged friends.

    • All four-legged ticket holders (and their owners) will show off their favorite Cardinals gear in a pre-game costume parade on the Busch Stadium field.

    • More than 200 canine Cardinals fans will join their owners in the designated “pooch” section of Busch Stadium.
