“We’re beyond excited to welcome back our fans to City Stadium to kick off our 29th season as a club,” said Camp Peery, Chief Operating Officer. “Our goal is to provide a safe, outdoor, and joyful experience for the entire Richmond community and we can’t wait to deliver on that promise starting April 24th.”
