Peoria Stadium is part of the Peoria Sports Complex. It is located in the northwest portion of the Greater Phoenix metro area. It was the first Spring Training facility to be built to accommodate two teams with a clubhouse for each. In the fall, the Peoria Saguaros play here for Arizona Fall League Baseball.

These photos will help you get a feel for Peoria Stadium before you buy your tickets and plan your day at the ballpark.

Peoria Stadium Tips

These comments are based on a visit in March 2008.
  1. There is a charge to park at Peoria Stadium. ($5 in 2008)
  2. In the handicapped parking area, there is a distinction between those needing room for wheelchairs and those that just need to be closer to get to the stadium. Handicapped parking is nearest to entrance A (even sections).
  3. Even sections are on the first base side; odd sections are on the third base side.
  4. Most of the seats are on two levels. There are a limited number of third level seats that are on the same level as the press boxes.
  5. There are large metal bleacher areas along both outfield lines in the upper level. There are no backs on those seats.
  6. The bleachers at Peoria Stadium are always in the sun.
  7. Nearly 13,000 people can see a game at Peoria Stadium.
  8. The scoreboard at Peoria Stadium is difficult to see in the sun, since it utilizes yellow/white bulbs. There are no sideline scoreboards and no pitch speed indicators.
  9. You'll find some fun foods at Peoria Stadium, including foot-long hot dogs, gyros, deep-fried twinkies and oreos, and taco-in-a-bag. Don't ask me what that is -- I don't know! I also saw a Cerreta's Chocolates stand there.
  10. There is plenty of outfield grass seating at Peoria Stadium.
  11. The Seattle Mariners home dugout is on the third base side. The San Diego Padres home dugout is on the first base side.
  12. Lower level seats at Peoria Stadium will be in the sun throughout the game.
  13. You may not stand and watch the game from the area between the upper and lower levels. Once you are past the bleachers, you can stand and watch the game from the concourse.
  14. The seats at Peoria Stadium all have cup holders.
  15. Practice fields for the teams playing at Peoria Stadium are right next to the stadium in the same Peoria Sports Complex.
