Cancer Survivors Night 2026
Date: Sunday, June 14th – Mayo Field (403 E. Center Street, Rochester)
If you have ever been diagnosed with cancer, then you are a survivor! Each year, National Cancer Survivors Day is celebrated on the first Sunday of June to honor those who have been diagnosed with cancer and to inspire hope for those currently facing it. To recognize cancer survivors and their loved ones, the Rochester Honkers are proud to partner with the Mayo Clinic Comprehensive Cancer Center to ‘Celebrate Life’ on Sunday, June 14th at Mayo Field! All cancer survivors will receive a FREE ticket and a $10 concessions voucher. Each survivor may also claim up to three additional guest tickets and one extra voucher. That’s up to 4 total tickets and two vouchers per survivor! Additional game tickets can be purchased at a reduced rate. The vouchers can be used at the main concession stand or the Sweet Spot for any item but must be used all at once (If there is a difference above $10, it must be paid for). To purchase any additional tickets, simply indicate the number of tickets you desire in the form below and a Honkers ticket representative will contact you directly. There are a limited number of reserved seats available so be sure to register by June 8th.
