FUN Done Differently<\/h2><\/div>

We believe that when FUN is done differently, it creates core memories, a stronger community, and lifelong fans. We have a bold mindset:<\/p>\n

To create the most epic, fun, and affordable community experience in Bismarck.<\/b><\/p>\n

So how do we do it?<\/p>\n

First \u2014 yes, we LOVE our players. We\u2019re bringing in some of the best talent in the country, and they\u2019re going to give us plenty to cheer for.<\/p>\n

But make no mistake \u2014 we\u2019re not just a baseball team.<\/b><\/p>\n<\/div>

<\/span><\/div>
<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div>

we’re an experience company<\/h2><\/div>

We believe when you create a non-stop, <\/span>family-first entertainment experience,<\/b> people will show up \u2014 and come back again and again.<\/span><\/p>\n

When you walk into Dakota Community Bank & Trust Field this summer, here\u2019s what you\u2019ll find:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Friendly faces greeting you at every turn<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Our mascot is giving your kids high-fives<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Free inflatables for the little ones<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Non-stop music, on-field games, and wild promotions<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Themed nights and headline entertainment acts<\/span><\/li>\n
  • All-inclusive food and drinks for Package and Group buyers<\/span><\/li>\n
  • And most importantly\u2026 <\/span>sold-out energy<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

    the sellout
    experience<\/h3><\/div>
    <\/div><\/div>

    Ever been to a sellout?<\/strong><\/p>\n

    It\u2019s magic. Whether it\u2019s 40,000 fans at a Twins game or 1,000 fans packed into Dakota Community Bank and Trust Field, there\u2019s nothing like it.<\/p>\n

    Strangers become friends. Hot dogs taste better. You high-five your neighbors, co-workers, even complete strangers.<\/p>\n

    You belong.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

    how do we create a
    sellout experience?<\/h3><\/div>
    <\/div><\/div>

    1. Ridiculously valuable ticket packages.<\/strong><\/p>\n

    Our Family Plans, Premium Plans, and Group Options are a total no-brainer. There\u2019s no better dinner-and-a-show deal in town.<\/p>\n

    2. Focus everything on our BEST nights.<\/strong><\/p>\n

    Other teams push packages on off-days and save the big nights for walk-up crowds. Not us.<\/p>\n

    Our Package and Group members get the best days of the week, the biggest games, the wildest entertainment \u2014 and we pack the place until it\u2019s sold out.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

    Imagine
    this:<\/h3><\/div>
    <\/div><\/div>

    A few times each summer, you and your family step into a buzzing, sold-out ballpark. You see neighbors, coworkers, friends.<\/p>\n

    You laugh, connect, and create shared community memories. You put your phone down. You forget about your crazy schedule. You feel like you belong. Like you\u2019re part of something bigger than yourself.<\/p>\n

    That\u2019s what the Bismarck Larks are about.<\/b><\/p>\n

    And that\u2019s our promise to you.<\/b><\/p>\n

    Will you help us make it happen?<\/b><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

    “Larks games are the best! The baseball is top-notch with some of the best college players in the country. They have great food and beer options too!”<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

    Andrew M. <\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

    “Well since I attend almost every game, it must be a great event to attend. The Bismarck Larks are a very professional organization that create fun. Yes, it us fun to win ballgames and to the Larks credit, they win many. However, I have left many times not even knowing the score as their is much fun off the field as well. Just go to a game and bring the family!”<\/b><\/i><\/p>\n

    Marlo Anderson<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

    “Top notch organization who gives back to the community. Games are fun with lots of in-game entertainment. As a sponsor, I really appreciate all the staff has done to bring this valuable asset to our community and the work that they do to give back to the community as well, especially to our youth! We have also held our corporate family night here a couple times and received great feedback from our employee base.”<\/b><\/i><\/p>\n

    2017<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/h2><\/div>

    We first arrived in Bismarck in 2017 with a goal to use FUN to make a difference and bring a new version of baseball to Bismarck Municipal Ballpark. For the first time, summer collegiate baseball made its mark on Bismarck, following in the historic footsteps of American Legion Baseball, the Dakota Rattlers, The Pards, The Barons, and teams in the Churchill Era and prior.<\/p>\n

    The Larks inaugural season went down as the BEST inaugural season in Northwoods League history. The Larks sold out 27 of 36 home games in 2017 (75%). This was unprecedented in summer collegiate baseball history.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

    \n

    2020<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/h2><\/div>

    In 2020, the Larks became the first sports team in the country to play safely with fans in the stands during the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2021, the Larks sold out 92% of every ticket and were named one of the top 30 employers in sports by Front Office Sports, alongside the Denver Broncos and Savannah Bananas.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

    \n

    2023<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/h2><\/div>

    In 2023, the Larks sold out 96.5% of every ticket and averaged 1,833 tickets out of 1,900 tickets available each game, added a brand new video board, and hosted the NWL Great Plains All-Star Game.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":78,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"content-type":"","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-26133","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\nAbout Us -
