51s theme nights include dollar beer Thursday
Final season at Cashman offers plenty
The 51s will be moving into their new digs next season with construction underway on Las Vegas Ballpark in Summerlin.
But before they go, they’ll do the best they can with what they’ve got at Cashman Field.
Their 36th season — the final one at Cashman Field — begins Thursday against the El Paso Chihuahuas.
Food
Expect to find typical ballpark fare — burgers, hot dogs, nachos and the like — at Cashman.
Discounted food is offered on Smith’s Value Menu Mondays, and fans can buy beer for $1 on Thursday nights.
If you go
Cashman Field is located at 850 Las Vegas Blvd. North near the Old Las Vegas Mormon Fort State Historic Park and Neon Museum.
Parking at the stadium is $5.
The stadium is also accessible via ride share services like Uber and Lyft, as well as the RTC bus, which drops off nearby. Gates open an hour prior to game time.
Ticket information
Fans can buy tickets online via Ticketmaster or at the box office.
The 51s sell season tickets — both full season and miniplan packages, which can be purchased by calling 702-943-7200 — as well as individual-game tickets.
Tickets range in price from $11 to $35 and are slightly more when purchased the day of the game.
Promos
Friday Night Fireworks, Dollar Beer Night on Thursdays and Smith’s Value Menu Monday will return to Cashman, along with a host of other promotional days and giveaways.
The 51s will host Star Wars night on April 7 and give away a T-shirt.
They’ll give away a quarter zip pullover on April 21 and an Amed Rosario replica jersey on May 12.
Other giveaways include a camouflage cap, a Mets-style jersey and a duffle bag.
Fans can bring their four-legged friends to Bark in the Park on April

The 51s will also play under the team name Reyes de Plata — the Silver Kings — on eight Tuesdays during the season.
Who to watch
Dominic Smith, the Mets’ firstround pick in 2013, begins the season with the 51s on a rehab assignment and could be optioned to Triple-a once it ends.
Starter Zack Wheeler is returning to Triple-a for the first time since 2013 after a shaky spring as he tries to regain consistency. Wheeler missed 2015 and 2016 with injuries.
The 51s will start with seven players ranked in the Mets’ top 30 prospects, per MLB Pipeline. Those include starter Chris Flexen, shortstop Luis Guillorme, starter Corey Oswalt, second baseman Gavin Cecchini, third baseman David Thompson, reliever Jamie Callahan and starter P.J. Conlon.
