Two fireworks shows, an appearance by Olympic gold medalist Ryan Held and a Trucks, Beats & Brews event highlight the promotional schedule.

After the game Kids Run the Bases presented by Nature's Twist, as children get to show off their speed rounding the DBAP bases.
After Sunday's game only five regular season home games will be played at the DBAP in 2016, and fans can purchase the Final Five Pack, which entitles buyers to five Terrace View tickets, five hot dogs and five sodas for just $55.

Prior to Monday's contest, fans will have the opportunity to roam the DBAP playing field to play Pok mon GO from 6-6:30 p.m. The event is a follow-up from the team's Pok mon GO event in mid-July, which raised $3,000 for Second Chance Pet Adoptions.
On Tuesday, Aug. 30 the Bulls will welcome Olympic swimming gold medalist and NC State junior Ryan Held, who will throw out that night's ceremonial first pitch, and sign autographs and take pictures with fans from 7:15-7:45 p.m. At the Rio Olympics Held teamed up with Michael Phelps and two others to earn gold in the 4 100 meter freestyle relay, earning his first Olympic medal at age 21.
