Grainger Stadium has a seating capacity of 4,100, making it the second-smallest park in the Carolina League. The result is a park that has a cozy feel, but still offers plenty of seating options for fans. The three main seating options in the ballpark are the grandstand behind home plate, the bleachers on the third base side, and the field-level seats down the first base line. One thing that is unique about the ballpark’s seating is that the tickets are priced the same — for 2024, the number of $8 per ticket. (At select times, including Opening Day, the price climbs to $12.)
People who appreciate the shade will likely want to focus on buying tickets in the main grandstand. These seats are protected by a large roof that keeps the area in the shade for the majority of your visit. If you’re not used to the North Carolina heat, you’ll almost certainly favor this section. If you don’t mind being out in the sun, a bleacher seat or a field-level seat can be ideal. The field-level seating section is small, numbering just two rows deep. It offers a quaint and delightful feel that is consistent with the overall vibe at Grainger. The grandstand is general admission and tends to be a popular choice among families.
Of course, there are several other places where you can spend time during your visit. Grainger Stadium has picnic tables on the concourse down the first base line that fans commonly use while eating. After all, the ballpark’s main concession stand is just a few steps away. The Mother Earth Pavilion is also a fun hangout spot for adult fans, offering a variety of covered and open-air seating options.
