The San Francisco Unicorns Family Day returns for its second year, and thanks to Royal®’s support, it will be another best-in-class event which gives an opportunity for Bay Area Unicorns fans to meet the team’s star players, as well as head coach, Shane Watson, before they head to the Grand Prairie Stadium, near Dallas, TX, for their first match against the LA Knight Riders on July 7, 2024.

At the Family Day, San Francisco Unicorns fans will also have the opportunity to experience Royal®’s authentic South Asian dishes. Further details for the event will be announced shortly. 

Venky Harinarayan, co-owner of San Francisco Unicorns, said: “We’re delighted to be working in partnership with a brand in Royal® that is a household name across the USA, and one with brand recognition that crosses generations and cultures.

“Our Family Day is a significant event for the Unicorns as we look to establish deeper ties with the Bay Area community, before flying off to Dallas for our first Major League Cricket match of the season — and we see Royal® as a great partner to have in building those relationships.”
