Practical Info
Suggested Duration3-4 hours
Best TimeDuring the baseball season (usually April to October each year). Even if you don't catch a game day, you can sign up on the official site for the stadium's in-depth weekly official behind-the-scenes Ballpark Tour
Getting ThereLocated in the core heart of Downtown Phoenix. It's highly recommended to take the Valley Metro Rail, get off at the 3rd Street/Washington station, and walk one minute to arrive
Travel Tips
- This is the home of MLB's Arizona Diamondbacks, the world's first modern mega-stadium with both a retractable roof and a natural grass field
- Because Phoenix's summer surface temperatures are like an oven, the stadium's huge retractable roof is usually fully closed on game days, and it's equipped with America's top high-powered central air conditioning to ensure an extremely cool, comfortable viewing experience
- Behind right field is the unique "upscale open-air swimming pool" (Coors Light Pool) found in no other U.S. stadium, where fans can watch pro baseball up close while soaking in the cool pool
Reviews
Positive
- So stunning! Even though it's a 40-plus-degree heat wave outside, walking into the stadium the air conditioning is as comfortable as spring. We watched a baseball game with an incredibly lively atmosphere, and the popcorn and hot dogs were delicious
- We took the stadium Tour; the guide took us to the players' locker room, the media briefing room, and the VIP box, and even let us step onto the infield dirt—for sports fans it was truly a dream come true
Heads up
- Traffic around the stadium is completely paralyzed on game days, and the stadium's own parking lot is extremely expensive. If you catch a popular game, it takes an extremely long time queuing to exit the parking lot afterward
