All Elite Wrestling and the Minnesota Twins announced Tuesday that they will co-present Brawl in the Ballpark on Friday, July 10, marking what the companies are calling the first-ever postgame wrestling event held at a Major League Baseball venue. The roughly 75-minute show featuring AEW and Ring of Honor talent will run immediately after that night’s Twins vs. Los Angeles Angels game at Target Field in Minneapolis.
First pitch for the Twins-Angels matchup is 7:10 PM CT, with Brawl in the Ballpark beginning shortly after the final out. The wrestling action will take place inside a specially constructed ring set up in the Gate 34 area of the ballpark, the same plaza that houses the Twins’ Golden Glove statue and TC Bear’s Clubhouse.
Any ticket purchased for the July 10 Twins game grants free admission to the postgame wrestling show. The two organizations have also rolled out three upgraded packages, including a co-branded Twins/AEW Lucha mask hat with the Theme Night bundle, VIP ringside access in the VIP Package, and a Truly On Deck patio reservation with $30 in loaded food and beverage credit.
Khan Calls It a Showcase Opportunity
“This collaboration is part of our ongoing efforts to create memorable, fan-first experiences that give people even more reasons to enjoy a visit to our ballpark,” Twins Executive Vice President and Chief Revenue Officer Sean Moore said in the announcement.
Tony Khan, AEW’s CEO, GM and head of creative, framed the event as a chance to put the product in front of a non-wrestling audience. “The event will mark another unforgettable night of All Elite Wrestling action in an incredible location, and we look forward to showcasing AEW to all Minnesota Twins fans,” Khan said.
The crossover lands in the middle of one of AEW’s biggest stretches of 2026. The promotion will tape Dynamite and Collision out of the OVO Hydro in Glasgow on August 26, then run All In London at Wembley Stadium on August 30, with the Target Field date sitting roughly seven weeks ahead of that international run.
July 10 also doubles as one of the Twins’ regular $2 Happy Hour Friday nights, with discounted beer, hot dogs and snacks available from 5 to 7:10 PM CT before first pitch. Tickets for both the game and the upgraded Brawl packages are on sale now at twins.com/tickets and twins.com/brawl.
