Target Field concessions workers set strike date for Twins-Dodgers matchup
June 15, 2026 // Last month, 81% of the 500 union members with Unite Here Local 17 voted to authorize a strike, seeking higher wages and better benefits. On Thursday, the concessions workers, employed by Delaware North Company, announced they plan to strike on June 22 if a deal isn't reached before then. The Twins are scheduled to take on the Dodgers, the defending World Series champions that day. Union members are asking fans to bring their own food to the game and not cross the picket line to buy food and drink.
Concessions workers at Target Field overwhelmingly authorize strike
May 8, 2026 // Unite Here 17 says it's the first time that workers at Target Field have taken a strike vote. "The Twins Organization needs to hold their concessionaire Delaware North Company accountable and tell them to settle a fair contract or they will face a strike," said Sheigh Freeberg, a secretary treasurer with the union. The union committee can now call a strike at any time, organizers say.
