Few MLB franchises enter the new league year mired in the mud quite like the Colorado Rockies, with five straight losing records highlighted by the first 100-loss campaign in franchise history in 2023.
With three last-place finishes in the last four years and zero postseason wins since 2009, Rockies fans can at least take pride in the fact Colorado has one of the finest ballparks in the Majors.
From Colorado’s home opener against Tampa Bay on April 5 until the team’s regular season finale against the L.A. Dodgers on Sept. 29, Rockies fans have a host of promotional nights to look forward to this summer. But fans probably won’t be looking forward to the results on the field, with ESPN BET Colorado giving the Rockies the longest National League title odds of any franchise at +10000.
Themed games draw in a wide range of MLB fans. Using the Colorado Rockies’ 2024 Promotions & Events Schedule, BetColorado.com surveyed Rockies’ fans on Reddit to see what the favorite themed nights were. Based on this survey, Brew Fest is the favorite Rockies’ theme night this season. The survey was submitted in r/ColoradoRockies from March 18-21, 2024.

This year’s Brew Fest is the 11th iteration of the event, taking place Sept. 14 ahead of the Rockies’ 6:10 p.m. game against the Chicago Cubs. Regional and local breweries compete to get a tap on The Rooftop for the entirety of the team’s April games in 2025. Colorado sports betting sites list the Cubs as +3000 to win the World Series and +1600 to win the NL.
Dollar Hot Dog Day is April 9 when Colorado takes on Arizona at 6:40 p.m., with the first 10,000 fans through the gates getting a coupon for a discounted dog. Star Wars Day is July 20 against San Francisco, with a movie-themed T-shirt, beach towel and various Star Wars events ahead and during the 6:10 p.m. first pitch.
This year’s Faith Day includes a performance by Grammy-winning artist Zach Williams, while Harry Potter Day this season includes various giveaways honoring JK Rowling’s beloved book-turned-movie series.
