Phoenix, Arizona -- Because of positive fan reaction from the Arizona Diamondbacks inaugural post-game fireworks show at Chase Field on June 23, the D-backs announced today that they will add five additional post-game fireworks shows this season, starting when the team hosts the San Diego Padres on July 14.

Gila River Casinos will present the 12-minute fireworks shows that will start approximately 10 minutes after the final out of each game.

"We have been thrilled with the fan reaction thus far and would like to give them even more," D-backs President Derrick Hall said. "The City of Phoenix has been extremely supportive and cooperative in allowing us to create this Saturday night downtown tradition of baseball and fireworks."

The fireworks will again be launched from the Convention Center Parking Garage located at 7th St. and Jefferson St. following each Saturday night game. Because of safety reasons, Jefferson, Washington and 5th St. near the ballpark will be closed starting immediately following the game until the conclusion of the fireworks shows.

Great seats are still available for all five games that feature a post-game fireworks show by calling the D-backs ticket office at 602.514.8400 or by purchasing tickets online at dbacks.com. Groups of 30 or more can receive discounted pricing by calling the D-backs' Group Sales department at 602.462.4600.

Seats on the Upper Level concourse at Chase Field provide the premium viewing spot for the fireworks show. Fans sitting in other areas of the ballpark that may have an obstructed view of the fireworks show may move to any seat on the Upper Level after the game as long as it is not occupied by a paid customer.
