90 minutes before first pitch.
Home stadium of the Tampa Bay Rays!
The full 2026 schedule is out, and after a rain-soaked 2025 at Steinbrenner Field, fans can finally cheer under the dome again!
Tropicana Field isn’t your typical ballpark — and that’s part of the charm. After Hurricane Milton tore through in October 2024, the Trop has been refreshed and is ready to welcome fans back for 2026. Its fully domed design means no rain delays and no Florida heat meltdown.
Views are solid from almost anywhere, the layout is easy to navigate, and you never feel like you’re trekking miles just to grab food or hit the restroom. Add in interactive areas, quirky touches, and a laid-back fan vibe, and the Trop feels welcoming and unpretentious.
New in 2026:
Tropicana Field, 1 Tropicana Dr, 33705, St. Petersburg, FL, United States
