Baltimore Orioles Tickets 2027: The Camden Yards Guide

Oriole Park at Camden Yards: the Orioles’ home in 2027

Oriole Park at Camden Yards opened on April 6, 1992, replacing Memorial Stadium, and it changed ballpark design across America. Instead of a concrete bowl, Baltimore built a park that fit into the city, with brick, steel and an old railroad building as part of the scenery. Capacity today is a little over 42,000.

Beyond the right-field wall stands the B&O Warehouse, a long brick building that has become the park’s signature backdrop. Between the warehouse and the ballpark runs Eutaw Street, open to fans on game days, where bronze baseball plaques mark the spots where home runs have landed, more than 100 of them over the years.

What sets Camden Yards apart for Orioles fans

The ballpark is open air, so rain can interrupt a game, but the brick-and-steel look, the skyline views and the closeness to the harbor make it one of the most beloved parks in the country. In recent seasons the left-field wall has been moved back and raised, changing how the field plays.

Getting to Camden Yards for Orioles games

The ballpark sits right in downtown Baltimore, a short walk from the Inner Harbor. The Light RailLink has a Camden Yards stop, and the Metro SubwayLink and local buses serve downtown, so a car is optional. MARC commuter trains run to Camden Station, which is next to the park, and that makes Oriole Park an excellent day trip from Washington, D.C.

MARC trains and Light Rail to Oriole Park

If you are staying in Washington, check the MARC Camden Line timetable for your date, since service on weekends and evenings is more limited than on weekdays. The Light RailLink connects the ballpark with the airport and with Penn Station.

Driving and arrival tips near Camden Yards

Parking lots and garages surround the ballpark, but they fill up for popular series. Walk in early to explore Eutaw Street before the gates fill, and give yourself time at security. The Babe Ruth Birthplace Museum is a short walk from the park, a nice stop on a baseball trip.

Orioles seats: where to sit at Oriole Park

The park is built in tiers: lower box seats close to the field, a club level, and an upper deck with a wide view of the diamond and downtown. Because it is a compact ballpark, even the upper deck feels near the action.

Best Orioles seats for a clear view of the field

The lower box sections between the bases give a clear view of the pitcher-batter duel and are great for people who want to see facial expressions and the dugouts. The club level is quieter and closer to the amenities. Outfield seats are a good choice if you want a chance at a home run ball.

Sun, shade and affordable seats at Oriole Park

In the heat of summer, rows beneath the upper deck stay in the shade, while open outfield seats can be warm. Families and budget visitors often choose the upper deck, which offers a great panorama of the skyline and the warehouse without the crowds. If you are traveling with children, arrive early and walk Eutaw Street before first pitch.

• Closest to the field: lower box seats behind home or along the baselines.
• Best overall view: upper-deck seats behind the infield.
• Home run ball chances: outfield seats near Eutaw Street.

Orioles traditions, crab cakes and the loudest “O!”

During the national anthem, when the singer reaches “O say does that star-spangled banner yet wave,” Baltimore fans shout a long “O!” in unison, a ritual that visitors always notice and that has become an identity marker for the club. It is a cheerful way to start every game, and you are welcome to join in.

Food at the Orioles ballpark

Baltimore food is part of the experience. Boog’s Barbecue, run by former Orioles slugger Boog Powell on Eutaw Street, serves pit beef and pulled pork, and crab cakes, Old Bay seasoning and local beer such as National Bohemian, known as “Natty Boh,” are staples. Plan to eat before or after the first inning to avoid the biggest lines.

The Orioles and the city of Baltimore

The Orioles are woven into the city, and the black and orange colors can be seen across downtown on game days. The club arrived in Baltimore in 1954 after moving from St. Louis, where it had been the Browns.
