The Ghost Peppers Are Heating Up. Make A Day Of It In Gastonia.

The Gastonia Ghost Peppers are in the hunt for the South title in the Atlantic League of Professional Baseball, and there are still opportunities to see the action at CaroMont Health Park this season.

Whether you’re planning a night out with friends, a date night or a day with the kids, a Ghost Peppers game is an easy way to experience Gastonia — especially when you pair the game with other things to do in the area.

When Can You See the Gastonia Ghost Peppers?

The Ghost Peppers have a few regular-season home games remaining in September, giving fans a final chance to see professional baseball at CaroMont Health Park before the postseason.

The remaining home schedule includes games against the High Point Rockers Sept. 1–6 and the Lexington Legends Sept. 8–10.

Which Ghost Peppers Games Have Special Promotions?

September brings several themed nights that give you another reason to choose a particular game.

September 4: Wrestling Night

Step into the ring for a night of wrestling-themed fun.

September 5: Charlotte Checkers Night

Celebrate the Charlotte Checkers with hockey-themed fun at the ballpark.

September 6: Family Day

Bring the whole crew for baseball, family fun and plenty of memories. Kids can also Run the Bases after the game.

September 10: Fan Appreciation Night

There are also weekly promotions throughout the season. Waggin’ Weekdays welcome dogs to Tuesday-through-Thursday home games, Thirsty Thursdays offer $3 Busch Light 16-ounce cans, and kids can Run the Bases after Sunday home games.

What Can You Do Before a Ghost Peppers Game?

Make the game part of a bigger Gastonia outing. Because the stadium is so close to downtown dining in Gastonia, you can easily combine baseball with local food, craft beverages and other things to do.

For a more upscale dinner, make a reservation at Webb Custom Kitchen. For something more casual, grab a bite at Pita Wheel, located in Gastonia’s historic Sinclair Gas Station.

Want to add a local craft beverage to the evening? Stop by Durty Bull Brewing, located across from the ballpark, and experience a stop along the Ridgeline Craft Beverage Trail.

Then walk over to the ballpark and settle in for the game.

What Can Families Do in Gastonia Before the Game?

If you’re bringing the kids, turn the outing into a full day. Start at the Schiele Museum, where you can spend the day exploring science, history and natural-world exhibits. Then head downtown for a meal before making your way to CaroMont Health Park.

Time it right and you can go from exploring dinosaurs and other museum exhibits to cheering on the Ghost Peppers — and finishing the day with Kids Run the Bases after a Sunday game.

Where Is CaroMont Health Park?

CaroMont Health Park is in the Fuse District of downtown Gastonia at 800 W. Franklin Blvd. Its location makes it easy to pair a Ghost Peppers game with downtown restaurants, craft beverages and other attractions. You don't have to choose between baseball and exploring Gastonia, you can do both.

What Happens After the Regular Season?

The Ghost Peppers’ regular season is only part of the story. The team is competing for the South title, with the Atlantic League postseason to follow.

That makes the final stretch of the season an especially good time to catch a game. You’re not just watching a regular-season matchup — you’re watching a team competing for a championship.

Check the Ghost Peppers’ schedule for the latest postseason information, game dates and ticket availability.
