2026 Schedule of Games
Did you know? We offer one of the nation’s most comprehensive 19th-century base ball programs, including games most Sundays May – October and the National Silver Ball Tournament mid-summer! Each season the Museum’s vintage base ball teams unpack their woolen uniforms, brown balls, and double-knobbed bats to play in Silver Base Ball Park, the first and finest replica 19th-century base ball park in the country.
Base ball games are included with the cost of general Museum admission. Don’t forget, admission is always FREE for Museum Members!
If a game is cancelled due to rain, GCV&M staff will put out a notice on Facebook as well as on our This Week at GCV&M webpage.
