Arizona Diamondbacks Tickets 2027: The Chase Field Guide

Chase Field: the desert ballpark of the Diamondbacks

All 81 Diamondbacks home games in 2027 are scheduled at Chase Field, in downtown Phoenix. The ballpark opened in 1998, the same year the franchise began playing, under the name Bank One Ballpark, and has been called Chase Field since 2005. It was the first stadium in the country with a retractable roof over a natural grass surface when it opened, and it holds roughly 48,000 people.

The Chase Field roof and Arizona heat

Phoenix summers regularly climb above 105 degrees Fahrenheit, so the roof is closed for much of the season and the building is air-conditioned. In the cooler weeks of spring and fall it is sometimes opened, and the difference between a closed-roof night and an open-sky evening is part of the charm.

The Chase Field pool beyond right-center

The swimming pool in right-center field is the famous feature of Chase Field, a rentable space for groups that gives the ballpark a playful identity. Mark Grace was the first player to hit a home run into it. Even if you never swim, you can see it from the outfield concourse.

The ballpark is also set in a lively part of downtown, next to the Phoenix arena district, with restaurants, bars and hotels within a short walk. That makes it easy to build a full evening around the game, arrive early to explore, and still make the first pitch without rushing across town in the heat.

Getting to Diamondbacks games at Chase Field by light rail, car or on foot

The ballpark sits in the middle of downtown Phoenix, close to hotels, restaurants and the neighboring arena.

Valley Metro light rail to Chase Field

Valley Metro light rail serves the area, with stops at 3rd Street/Jefferson and 3rd Street/Washington within walking distance of the gates. For visitors staying downtown or in Tempe, the train is the simplest way to avoid parking.

Parking and walking up to Chase Field

Garages and lots surround downtown, and many fans simply park a few blocks away and walk. The heat matters in summer: allow time for the walk and drink water before you go inside. Arrive early for the Dodgers and Giants series, because the crowd and the lines grow quickly.

Best seats at Chase Field for Diamondbacks games

Because the roof is closed on most hot nights, your seat choice is less about sun than about view and ease of access.

Diamondbacks seats behind the plate and along the baselines

The lower bowl near home plate and between the dugouts gives the best look at pitching and umpire calls. The sections along first base and third base keep you close to the Diamondbacks' dugout and the visitors.

Outfield, pool area and upper deck at Chase Field

The outfield seats are a relaxed choice for catching home run balls, and the upper deck gives a wide, comfortable view of the whole field and the downtown skyline through the open roof on mild evenings. The pool area is for groups that reserve it in advance.

Diamondbacks games for families and small budgets

Families will appreciate the air-conditioned concourses and the kid-friendly zones. For lower budgets, weeknight games against clubs from the other league and upper-deck seats offer the best value. If you plan to visit in spring, ask about shade in the sections you choose when the roof is open.

Diamondbacks atmosphere, mascot and food

Diamondbacks fans are a mix of Phoenix locals, winter visitors and Spring Training regulars. The crowd is friendly, curious about visitors and fully at ease in the cool of the roofed ballpark.

Baxter and the Diamondbacks game-day show

Baxter the Bobcat leads the fun for children, and the in-game entertainment mixes music, scoreboard games and community moments. In the seventh inning, the stadium joins in the traditional stretch.

Food at Chase Field

Southwestern flavors are part of the menu, including Sonoran hot dogs, churro treats and Mexican-inspired dishes, along with classic ballpark food and Arizona craft beers. Many visitors take a lap of the concourse to compare choices before settling into their seats.

Diamondbacks rivalries and series to circle in 2027

The Diamondbacks play in the NL West, so the Dodgers, Giants, Padres and Rockies appear most often. Each rivalry has its own flavor, from the star power of Los Angeles to the old Western-division history with San Francisco.

Diamondbacks against the Dodgers

Los Angeles visits Chase Field twice: April 5 to 7 and again from September 24 to 26, the final series of the home season. That last series could carry playoff weight.

Giants, Padres and Rockies at Chase Field

San Francisco plays at Chase Field from June 4 to 6 and in a four-game Independence Day series from July 1 to 4. San Diego visits April 16 to 18 and September 21 to 23, and Colorado comes May 20 to 23 and July 16 to 18.

The Diamondbacks and the 2023 World Series opponent

The Texas Rangers, who beat Arizona in the 2023 World Series, visit from May 7 to 9. Fans in Phoenix still remember that series, so expect a spirited crowd for the series.

The Diamondbacks' 2027 home schedule and special days

Arizona has 81 home games: 13 in April, 16 in May, 14 in June, 10 in July, 16 in August and 12 in September. The first road game is March 25 at San Diego.

Diamondbacks opening homestand at Chase Field

Miami comes April 2 to 4 and the Dodgers April 5 to 7. After a short break, San Diego and the Cubs visit April 16 to 21, then Cleveland and Baltimore close the early stretch.

Lou Gehrig Day at Chase Field

Lou Gehrig Day falls on June 2 against Cincinnati, in a series that begins on May 31.

Summer highlights for the Diamondbacks

June brings Atlanta, Boston and the Mets in addition to San Francisco. July features Colorado and St. Louis. In August, expect Tampa Bay, Houston, a four-game Milwaukee series from August 12 to 15, Washington and Philadelphia. September opens with Pittsburgh and Kansas City. Game times have not been announced yet.

Planning Diamondbacks tickets for 2027

MLB single-game tickets normally go on sale in the winter. The date for the Diamondbacks has not been announced, so preparing early is the smart approach.

Which Diamondbacks games draw the biggest crowds

The opening series with the Dodgers, the July 4 weekend with the Giants, and the final series with Los Angeles are the likeliest to sell strongly. Weeknight games are quieter and perfect for a first visit.

Buying Diamondbacks tickets safely

Use verified channels, and avoid private offers from strangers. For resale seats, check that the transfer method is clear. Join the alert on this page and use the tickets button as soon as it opens to learn about sale dates, new matchups and price drops without checking every day.

Visiting the Diamondbacks from Europe and Latin America

Arizona does not change its clocks, so it stays on Mountain Standard Time all year. From Paris or Madrid the difference is eight hours in late March and nine hours for most of the season. Mexico City is one hour ahead of Phoenix, and the Caribbean is about three hours ahead.

Game length and desert weather at Chase Field

The pitch clock has trimmed most games to a little under three hours. Summers are extremely hot outside, but the roof turns the ballpark into a comfortable evening escape. April and September are milder and better for walking around the city.

Combining the Diamondbacks with Phoenix

Phoenix has Camelback Mountain, the Desert Botanical Garden and easy day trips to Sedona. The Diamondbacks also train at Salt River Fields in Scottsdale; see our Spring Training guide. For a full trip, read the guide for fans from Europe.

A short history of the Diamondbacks

The Diamondbacks began play in 1998 as an expansion team and won the World Series in 2001, in their fourth season, the fastest of any expansion club. They beat the New York Yankees in seven games, with Luis González delivering the winning hit in Game 7.

Diamondbacks legends

Randy Johnson, who won four straight Cy Young Awards from 1999 to 2002, and Luis González have their numbers retired, along with Jackie Robinson. Curt Schilling shared the spotlight in 2001, and the team has kept its tradition of strong pitching.

The Diamondbacks return to the Fall Classic

Arizona won the National League pennant again in 2023 before losing to Texas in five games. Compare the park with others in our ballpark ranking, see the 2027 schedule, or meet their division rival the Colorado Rockies.
