Welcome to Truist Park – Home of the Braves
If Truist Park isn’t on your baseball bucket list yet, it absolutely should be. Opened in 2017 as the new home of the Atlanta Braves, this state-of-the-art stadium blends modern amenities with timeless baseball charm. Whether you’re a die-hard fan or just looking for a great night out, Truist Park delivers an unforgettable experience.
From Turner Field to Truist Park: A New Era Begins
The Braves made the move from downtown Atlanta’s Turner Field to Truist Park in 2017, just 20 years after their previous stadium opened. The decision raised some eyebrows at the time, but the results speak for themselves. The new ballpark was designed with fan experience in mind, and it’s paid off in spades — including a World Series appearance in 2021 and plans to host the MLB All-Star Game in 2025.
The Battery Atlanta: A Ballpark Destination
One of the biggest game-changers? The Battery Atlanta — a vibrant 60-acre mixed-use development that surrounds the stadium. This entertainment district features restaurants, bars, shopping, offices, apartments, and year-round events. Most fans arrive via The Battery and enter through the outfield gates, immediately stepping into a one-of-a-kind ballpark atmosphere.
First Impressions and Exterior Design
Truist Park greets fans with classic brick architecture and tributes to Braves legends like Hank Aaron, Phil Niekro, Warren Spahn, and manager Bobby Cox in statue form. Near the gates, you’ll find Instagram-worthy features like the Delta jet tail fin and wooden Chop On signs — perfect for capturing your visit.
Inside the Park: Views, Vibes, and Features
Once inside, fans are treated to modern comfort paired with nostalgic touches. The seating bowl holds 41,500 fans, with three levels of grandstands stretching from right field to left. The design ensures great views from nearly every seat, and a 90-foot-wide canopy provides welcome shade during those scorching Georgia summers. Bonus: air conditioning on every level keeps things cool and comfortable.
