Spring Training Ballpark

Phoenix Municipal Stadium
Phoenix Municipal Stadium

Phoenix Municipal Stadium is the home for the Athletics' Spring Training games. After an $8 million remodeling in 2005, the stadium reopened as one of the spiffier ballparks in the city. The improvements included improved access to concessions and the gift shop, more comfortable seating, and better access to the ballpark.

Located near Papago Park in Central Phoenix, it has never been easier to get to the ballpark. Public transportation is readily available, with Valley Metro's new Light Rail providing convenient and safe access to the games.
