Mighty Mussels drop ticket prices for remainder of 2026 season

The Fort Myers Mighty Mussels are slashing ticket prices, bringing back fireworks and launching a “Sweet Shop” mobile cart as the team doubles down on its quest to offer affordable family fun.

Starting Tuesday, June 9, and running through the end of the regular season, general admission tickets will be $5 – half off the regular price. Parking remains at just $10, and concession stands still offer full meals for under $15.

“When our current ownership group took over in 2022, our top priority was enhancing the fan experience, starting with a commitment to affordable family fun,” said Managing Parter John Martin. “These are challenging economic times for everyone, and we don’t want ticket prices to deter families from watching a game. I still remember family trips to the ballpark when I was little, so we want to every child in Southwest Florida to have an opportunity to create those same memories.”

Additionally, the Mighty Mussels will resume their fan-favorite postgame fireworks shows after every Friday home game, starting June 12. The team canceled five fireworks shows in April and May because of a drought-imposed countywide burn ban, which recently was lifted.

Additionally, the Mighty Mussels’ culinary team is launching a Sweet Shop mobile cart that will circulate the concourse with an array of candy, snacks and sweet treats for children of all ages.

Mighty Mussels games are played inside Hammond Stadium at the Lee Health Sports Complex, 14400 Six Mile Cypress Parkway in Fort Myers. Tickets are available at the stadium box office or online at MightyMussels.com.
