The Las Vegas Aviators, the Triple-A West baseball team and affiliate of the Oakland Athletics, returns to the field on May 6, and with the return to baseball comes new food and beverage options at Las Vegas Ballpark, the team’s home next to Downtown Summerlin.
For the 2023 season, concessionaire Professional Sports Catering and executive chef Garry DeLucia return with a new menu after remaining closed for the 2020 season due to COVID-19.
BBQ Mexicana from chefs Susan Feniger and Mary Sue Milliken of Border Grill fame returns with a menu of a BTLA salad, avocado chicken burrito, and burnt ends burrito.

Las Vegas Ballpark opens for the season on April at 7:05 p.m. against the Oklahoma City Dodgers.
