The Tampa Bay Rays will host the fifth annual Bradenton Community Night on June 18, offering discounted tickets for the game against the Florida Marlins at Tropicana Field.

The city has 300 tickets for sale in each section.

The Rays have not announced if there will be a concert that night after the 7:10 p.m. game as part of their summer concert series, but since this is the only Saturday home game in June, they expect to book one in the coming weeks, according to a news release.

Since tickets have already been printed for Bradenton Night, there will not be a price increase on tickets purchased through the city even if a concert is booked for June 18.
