BB&T Ballpark is really nice! The minor league games played here are a great addition to Charlotte. Inside the stadium, there are plenty of seats and the tickets are super inexpensive to go to a game. You also have great views of the city skyline. In the summer months after the games, there are fireworks displays that take place. It's a really cool ballpark to take the kids or to have a fun day out with friends and family. Inside, there are numerous food and retail vendors where you can get a variety of bar foods, beer and cocktails. The retail shops are stocked with Knight's swag and other items. Go out for a ball game!
I came here to BB&T Ballpark for a game early on in the season back in April of last year. I really liked the location of the stadium being located right on the outskirts of downtown Charlotte. I actually hung out at Romare Bearden Park taking it easy and relaxing on the grass before the gates to the ballpark opened at 6pm. Gametime was 7pm.....so like I customarily do....I spent an hour exploring around BB&T Stadium....walking about and taking a bunch of pictures. It was nice. I liked the "small town" minor league feel to the park. My only issue and why I rate this place just okay - 3 stars is because....like my narcissistic self likes to always do.....I take a bunch of photos of myself (standing behind home plate) (or right in the middle of the heart of the stadium) signifying that I made it to yet another baseball park. Unfortunately, I was never able to capture a great picture standing in front of BB&T Stadium. The biggest issue was the shadows!!!!! Grrrrr!!! I knew I should have a chosen a daytime game to go to around 1pm. Then I would have been set up perfectly. Because around 6pm-ish in April, the sun was setting and I was caught in shadows while the background of the park was set in the sun. All the pics that came out were tainted. Frustratingly, I couldn't post any pics to Instagram! Lol! Yeah...that's how obsessive I am with my pictures. Too bad....because....the skyline of downtown Charlotte was absolutely beautiful and the potential was there for special photos. An evening game was just the wrong time to attend for an obsessed photography enthusiast like myself. Being blunt....this whole shadows thing ruined my experience at BB&T Park. I honestly wish I could have been warned about the shadows issue. But....I'm probably the only one who remotely cares about taking photos of themselves at a quiet minor league baseball game. Well....if anyone even cares to read this and intends on going to a Charlotte Knights game....definitely come here during a weekend day-time game. Otherwise, BB&T Park was cozy and simple. I sat behind home plate a few rows back for cheap. I believe my ticket was around $30. Also, I parked down the street for $10 in a parking lot. The game for me was a little boring. Still, I didn't have much expectations. Even though I've actually been to every MLB Park out there, I'm actually not a fan of the game. Food wise, just your typical baseball type stuff. I actually ate beforehand so I never sampled any of the food. In all, I wish I wasn't disappointed by the shadows cast down on the park from 6pm - 7pm before the game started. Once the crowds filled in, I just got "photo-bombed" by random fans....and it wasn't even worth attempting pictures after the first pitch. This certainly hindered my experience here at BB&T Ballpark. Otherwise, the game was fine and I actually sat throughout it's entirety. Ultimately, for all those vain and self-admiring picture people out there.....just passing along some advice it'd be worthwhile to come here during a daytime game.
Beautiful ballpark. I was there for the annual Easter Egg Hunt for Autism Awareness. There was an excellent showing. It was wonderful to see the kids come out and participate. One of the volunteers timed it. Start to finish it took 3 minutes for the kids to pick up all the eggs. The ballpark itself is well maintained. The field is beautiful. The stadium was so clean. I was extremely impressed with the layout, the seating, and all the options available. I look forward to going to a game this year.
Look for prices starting at $12, you have a great venue a few hours of great baseball (non-steroid adulterated lol) guys who love their sport and play at the pro level. It is fun for the kids, food of all types, vegan, hot dogs, bbq, ice cream etc. Some very helpful and friendly staff. Tonight was for my work Deaf and Hard of Hearing event that BB&T and the Knights honored us with making contact with some great people. A few of our Deaf and Hard of Hearing community came by and some new faces and people with hearing loss that we maybe able to help soon. IT can get warm and they do have a VIP Area with food included and I think it was around $50 pp. You can not beat this view.
This is an amazing minor league ball park. Nearby parking or take the light rail and walk a five blocks. A wide entrance with reasonable security (wanding and bag inspection). Lots and lots of concession choices including the usual hot dogs and pretzels but also barbecue and local craft beers. And a simply amazing sunset view. Unbelievable. We were in a suite where my friend got free tickets from one of her vendors. So maybe that influenced my experience somewhat. Four hot dogs and two beers - $35. Seems a bit much but that's ballpark prices. Oh, the game. I nearly forgot. A great view and lots of activities going on to keep fans interested. BB&T Ballpark has the usual race in the middle of the game. Where Miller Park races sausages and Nationals Park races presidents, here they race royalty with Queen Charlotte, a king, a joker and a knight. Funny. Queen Charlotte won the race tonight carrying a sign that said "Girl Power."
Wonderful venue! I mean, just look at this picture. It's making me miss Summering in the Queen City already! I'm sure that some of you have heard of the Bark in the Ballpark promotion by the Charlotte Knights, which is just the cutest thing ever! You can bring your furry BFF for a game, and admission is free for the pups! So fun!
Let me start by saying, Just Go! I love baseball more than anything and this is your opportunity to visit the best minor league ballpark in the entire world! I'm not being biased, MiLB continues to rate it as their #1 park year after year. In fact, I'm a Cubs fan who grew up in Chicago. The Knights are the Chicago White Sox's triple A, minor league affiliate. When I go to a game, not only do I have to put up with all the NY (Yankee fans) transplants that live in Charlotte... I also, have to put up with White Sox fans ... one of my teams biggest rivals. Wear my Cubs jersey I can always start up a discussion or debate, lol. But really, it's ... such ... A ... Beautiful... Ballpark! Charlotte's growing skyline is the backdrop to this gem! Sit behind home plate and it's hard to keep your eye on the game ... as the view looking toward the outfield is breathtaking... truly indescribable perfect, day or night. You're sitting so close, you feel like you're in the dugout. Sit down the left or right field lines, better have your glove to catch a foul ball. Actually, getting a foul ball or home run ball is by far, the best souvenir in the whole ballpark! If you do decide to sit down the lines, pick 3b side... it's the better view of downtown Charlotte. There's truly not a bad seat. There's also all kinds of promotion nights, free shirts ... caps, bring your dog day. Perfect for kids, a date or alone. Concessions prices are probably equivalent to other minor league parks. But, a bad hot dog at a ballgame is always a good hot dog. Get a souvenir cup with your beer or pop too, take it home! Tip your vendor too , either the beer man walking the isles or if you go to one of the many stands throughout the park. I say tip because one thing I've noticed at sports events in Charlotte, people never tip. Parking is pretty cheap, save some money parking just north or west (Graham St) of the ballpark. There's lots all over but, generally, further away from downtown the cheaper. I always park for free, a few blocks north in 4th ward ... street signs will indicate when you can park for free.
Nothing screams summer like a hot and sticky night at a baseball game! This stadium is perfectly located in uptown Charlotte. We love meeting friends and grabbing a drink at one of the many nearby bars before hand and/or hanging out in the adjacent park (Romare Bearden, I think) for fireworks afterwards. The ballpark's food and drink selection is impressive. They have tons of local, craft beer. It is admittedly overpriced but what sports arena isn't charging your first born for a beer these days? At least here, you can usually score a cool mason jar to take home to commemorate your $8 beer afterwards. Food options are varied! While I usually stick with my old snowcone/shaved ice standby, I've seen everything from a mac and cheese hotdog to BBQ nachos and all points in between. Game tickets are affordable. The stadium is just the right size that there are no bad seats in the house. Skyline views are beautiful. Employees, especially the greeters, ticket takers/scanners, and security, are always really perky. Take me out to the ballgame!
This ballpark is a favorite spot of mine not just for great baseball but for a beautiful city skyline view that you just can't beat, this stadium doesn't provide a bad seat and always delivers a great experience. Service is always quick even when lines are kinda long so you don't have to miss much action, and of course Thursdays provide some discounted beer so you really can't beat that. The size of the cups for craft beers on Thursdays are a little small for the 5$ charge for my liking but the price of domestics being 3$ made up for it. Overall, this place provides tons of entertainment, food and drinks as well as excellent baseball action. Go Knights!
Great volunteer event I participated in tonight with Classroom Central and United Healthcare. Tonight's back to school drive was a huge success. Attendees of the game had the opportunity to donate a minimum of 5 school supplies. When attendees donate they receive a complementary ticket into tonight's game. Also during tonight's game, the Charlotte knights had $1.00 hour dog night. This was also a great idea, however the hot dog I received was extremely cold and extremely burnt. Thankfully the cashier offered to give me a different hot dog after look through all the $1.00 hotdogs for a hot one. None of them were hot at all, this wasn't good Charlotte Knights. I'm not sure if the warmer was on or not. But after I paid and was leaving to add condiments to my hotdog I heard and saw other customers taking their hotdogs back and explaining how cold they were. Again I'm not sure if it was just this particular concession stand or the warmers. But even though the hotdogs are $1.00 they should at-least be hot. I'm sure you all were cooking them in advance to prevent long lines, but there has to also be a way to keep them warm/hot as well.
We went to an event at the ball park today and I was SO impressed with this little Charlotte treasure! It has all the amenities of an MLB ballpark, but on mini scale. Our event was held during the game today in the Piedmont Natural Gas Picnic Area. Our tickets were partially subsidies by our group so we only paid $20 (the tickets are originally $35). The ticket includes: admittance to the game and an all you can eat buffet. When we arrived at the stadium we went through security check and had our tickets scanned. Women - fear not, I wore a leather crossbody bag (medium size) and there was no problem! When we entered the stadium, we were given a Knights koozie! Everyone loves a good koozie! The all you can eat buffet included hot dogs, chicken, and veggie burgers with accouterments. Mac and cheese, pulled pork, cole slaw, fresh baked cookies, and water/soda. If you like pulled pork - get there early! They run out quickly. If you like chocolate chip cookies fresh out of the oven... run when they put out because tiny hands take like 5 at a time... and cookies take time to bake! The picnic area is covered with picnic benches. The whole stadium is really nice though and so clean! Great way to spend some time together as a family. We had a great time and can't wait for more games this summer.
This is fantastic Triple A ballpark. What a great location just adjacent to Bank of America Stadium. Super site lines, well designed and constructed. A nice acknowledgement to the history the city of Charlotte has with professional baseball. So much nicer than driving to another state to watch a Charlotte team. Now Charlotte just needs to expand the Lynx to handle the demand for travel to this and BofA as well as other 'uptown' business.
This really is a beautiful ballpark! We came here recently to see the White Sox exhibition game and the setting is wonderful. Even though it's smack in the downtown area with a wonderful view of the skyline, it doesn't feel closed in at all. Just like when the ballpark was in Ft Mill, the seating bowl attendants are very strict about fans only sitting in their assigned seats, so no squatting allowed!! Overall the employees aim to please, but I have to say many of those working the concessions look like it's a forced assignment. Let's talk concessions, that's where I was under impressed. Not by the selection, but for the cost. $9 for a hot dog is way too rich for my blood. Granted it was for the one dressed to the hilt, so I opted for a $3 dog instead and it was just fine flavor wise, just without all the to-do. I'd say the average price is $7-9.00 per item like a dog or burger. When you add in a side, drink, popcorn, peanuts, it all adds up quickly for a family with a couple of hungry kids to feed. The fan store has a big selection of nice items, but again, a bit pricey, so be prepared. Of course there's no comparison price wise to an MLB park for the tickets, food & souvenirs and this is a Triple A team, so everything could be much, much higher!

We had a work event at Knights stadium where their catering department did really well. Not only did they have plenty of food, but the staff was great as they came around to check in and clean up. The food was surprisingly good too. I tried each of the meat options. The burgers were the best option as they were seasoned and the toppings were fresh. The pulled pork was my second favorite. The hot dogs were good, but I'm not a huge hot dog fan. I'm never one to eat at the ballpark because it's usually overpriced for basic food. Yet, depending on the prices, I would consider eating here outside of work events. read more
If you're someone who likes to travel to baseball stadiums - major and minor league - as much as I do, BB&T Ballpark has no doubt been on your radar (assuming you haven't been already). It always seems to be in everybody's top picks of MiLB stadiums to visit. I actually brought my grandmother to BB&T Ballpark back in early April for the 2nd game of the season (against Durham). I had purchased Club tickets for us as an extra special treat. While the weather could have been better, the stadium experience itself was quite enjoyable. My grandmother was greeted by the mascot, Homer, upon entering the ballpark (she loved it). We walked around the ballpark to make sure we saw everything. The team store was surprisingly lacking in items, but perhaps that's because it was so early in the season? I'm not sure. We checked out our seats, which gave us a great view of the city - even better when there wasn't fog in front of the buildings. ;-) While the special Club section of the stadium (closed off, offering some special food - I believe it's called the Diamonds Direct Lounge? It's for those with Home Plate Club tickets) was enjoyable, it felt somewhat small. Also, while there was supposed to be free popcorn and peanuts available, they were out... with only pretzels being available. Also, for having to pay for the concession options in this lounge (my barbacoa beef tacos were $10), there wasn't anything really special or different from what you could find in the regular portion of the stadium. Again, was this a matter of my being there so early in the season? I don't know... but it left me wanting more. I'm boosting this review from a 3/5 to a 4/5 based on the fact that the staff at this ballpark were really fantastic and welcoming - and the skyline view is hard to resist. It's the real beauty of this ballpark. TL;DR I might have gone too early in the season, but it's hard to tell if that was the issue or my expectations for this ballpark were a bit too high. For anyone planning to attend a game here, I'd honestly not bother with club seats... there's nothing that really puts them above and beyond in terms of experience. It is quite a nice stadium though... it just didn't leave a huge "I must go back!"-type impression on me personally. read more

Our first experience at the ballpark was on the 4th of July 2017 and it was great! Coming from South Florida I wouldn't normally leave the house on the 4th of July, but this was a wonderful and peaceful experience. To start the traffic was amazing and I was very surprised how easy it was to navigate to and from the stadium. The biggest surprise was how affordable covered parking was. I'm used to price gouging during sporting events, so it was nice to have 5$ parking available within close proximity to the ball park. The perimeter of Bearden Park was occupied by food trucks, vendors and entertainment and security was very much present and noticeable. I never felt unsafe or concerned and it was not overly congested with people. The ball park itself is very nice and there doesn't seem to be a bad seat in the house. I've never really been to a minor league ball game, but we enjoyed it very much, especially the fireworks at the end. Do expect pay ballpark prices for food items and drinks, but the ball park is within walking distance of plenty of restaurants and bars to fill up before the game. I would definitely return and possible try picking some seats in the shade this time. read more

Came here for 4th of July Baseball (USA vs Cuba) game for an AWESOME date. Totally recommend if you and your beau are into baseball, beer, good eats and an awesome fireworks display. (Self-proclaimed "Best firework display in the entire SouthEast") Tons of drink options here! Lots of beers (Coronas, Budlight, Modelo) and lots of local breweries and IPAs who sell here as well. Tons of options! They also have Margaritas and Wine Spritzers for the non-beer drinkers like me. Not sure if they have a full bar for the hard liquor drinkers but wouldn't be too surprised. Food was pretty good too! I am on a weird no-meat stint currently and I opted for the Black Bean burger. It was actually very good! The appearance of it.. Not so much but it was made with a black bean and corn patty. Ended up being much more savory than I expected. Therefore, ballpark gets Vegetarian stamp of approval! Parking and/or ubering to this location is extremely easy. Tons of parking garages nearby and spacious ballpark. Would totally recommend this to anyone who wants to see the huge firework display on future Independance Day's! I would do it again! read more

This is a pretty nice stadium uptown. The views of the city skyline are great. The food isn't anything to rave about, but it's better than your average stadium food. I was most recently here for the Guts pumpkin carving contest, which could definitely be held in a more open area. The Knights have some good theme nights and giveaway nights so take a look at the calendar if you're interested in that. It was definitely a good idea to move the stadium uptown. Now it draws decent crowds which is way better than before. read more

It is worth the ticket price just to see the view of the city at sunset. Just ask for the seats with the best view of the city skyline. I am not sure what I was watching more, the baseball game or the sun setting on the building behind the field. Grab a beer and enjoy the game/view! read more
Been here several times without any complaints. Always easy to find parking. Prices really aren't that bad. The view is amazing and the games are always entertaining! I love it when they do themes too like when you can bring your dog and they have all the vendors there. :) read more
This ballpark is absolutely beautiful inside! It was my first time attending a Knight's game and I was thoroughly impressed. I love that you can walk around the entire inside edge of the park and there is really not a bad seat in the place. Plus, when it started drizzling, it was great to be able to stand in the the covered areas without feeling like I was smashed in a sardine can. The vendors I interacted with were all very nice and appeared clean. There is a great selection of beers and foods and snacks, everything you could want at a ballgame. The location is also amazing! As the sun goes down and the lights show brighter in the windows of the neighboring high-rises, it is truly a beautiful sight. I don't think I realized just how awesome the Charlotte skyline is, especially at night. read more
This is a great ball park. I mean, there are some ball parks with great views, nice layout and great crowds but none besides some of the major league stadiums are as good. I think I actually heard that it was voted the best minor league baseball field last year. No wonder they had the championship games here. I've been there quite a few times now. Minor league baseball isn't as dramatic as the majors. Sometimes the score board at a Knights game can be two digits versus two digits. And today a batter just threw the emwhole bat into the crowd. He didn't mean it of course. And no one got hurt so no tort case. But that's why there's more room for family and friends there. People seem to go more for chatting and bonding and drinkjng good beer and hot dogs - while the game is palying in the backdrop (or is it frontdrop?). All in all, great view, a great place for group activites, and some baseball fun! read more
They say it's the best ballpark in the Minors, and while I haven't been to enough stadiums to back up that claim, I have a hard time seeing how any other setting could equal this one. With the impressive Charlotte skyline as a backdrop, a great view from almost every seat, and a selection of craft beer that showcases North Carolina's best breweries, the ballgame is almost background noise at BB&T Park. Whether you have club seats behind home plate, a cheap seat in the outfield, or a pass to one of the impressive luxury suites, you'll feel closer to the action than at any MLB park in America. And instead of paying major league ticket prices, you can take the entire family to a Knights game for under $100, including parking, food and beer. I visit BB&T Park at least a couple of times each season, and often spend more time wandering the concourse with a hot dog and a beer than I do watching the game from my seat. The food selection is fantastic, with everything from Chick-fil-a and salad bars to great Carolina BBQ, burgers, nachos and dogs. And the beer choices are FANTASTIC, with everything from local favorites (NoDa, Olde Meck) to regional brews like Foothills and Natty Greene's. Parking near the stadium is plentiful and reasonably priced, and tickets for most games are easy to get, even up to first pitch. You may want to plan ahead for Fireworks Nights (particularly on July 4th), but generally, you can drop by the box office on a whim and enjoy a ballgame whenever the Knights are in town. BB&T Ballpark is one of the reasons I absolutely love living in Charlotte. Whether you're a Queen City resident or just in town for business or pleasure, don't miss the chance to check out one of minor league baseball's crown jewels. read more

Much better than the last location. The club level seats do not get you anything. The only added bonus is you can purchase liquor here. Free popcorn & peanuts with club level seating. The bartenders are SUPER tight with the expensive subpar liquor. Bring a hidden flask!!! read more

BB&T Ballpark has EVERYTHING the big leagues have! Add in an incredible, breathtaking view of Uptown Charlotte and you have a five-star stadium. The vast array of eats is truly impressive. I saw a chicken and waffle cone, popcorn shrimp platter, bratwursts, Philly cheesesteak, frozen yogurt, shaved ice and a large variety of craft brews. There is also offerings from Chick-fil-A and Dominoes Pizza. The prices are comparable to a major league stadium...so everything is overpriced, except the tickets! All together, it will cost you the same as a night at the movies, but with many more fun memories. The true scene stealer was the grown men drunkenly trampling each other (and young children) and dislocating their shoulders for that one moment of glory where they catch a HOME RUN! Like a NASCAR race, the people watching is half the fun! No Charlotte summer would be complete without a trip to BB&T Ballpark! read more
For a minor league baseball team/park it doesn't get any better than this. The stadium is beautifully located in downtown Charlotte. The parking garage is a two minute walk across the street & is only $5. Typical ballpark food, beer, wine & spirits. Decent prices for all the above, or at least what you would expect. There are plenty of bathrooms & even a nice store with all your Charlotte knights apparel. The staff is friendly and seats are fairly comfortable with cup holders. Announcers are on point & entertaining. All in all for some of the prices for the tickets around $20, you just can't beat a nice night in downtown Charlotte with fireworks afterwards. read more
It is nice to not have to drive to South Carolina to see a Charlotte Knights game. The BB&T Stadium is beautiful! There really is not a bad seat here. Just grab a pair of $10 tickets and go! It makes for a great night out. Parking was close, easy, and only $5. There is something for everyone at the stadium! Of course everything is over priced- you are at stadium uptown, however there are some great local craft beers, bbq, nachos, chick-fil-a, and baseball staples like hot dogs, peanuts, and cracker jacks. We took a walk all the way around the stadium to check out each section- every spot had a great view and we loved that we could make laps around the place. I think the only negatives would be: 1. Center Field seats cannot see the score board. 2. We went on a fireworks night and the game went past 11:00pm...so NO fireworks (we were a bit disappointed). All in all- this is a great venue and I am looking forward to more visits here with more Knights victories! read more

The ballpark is stunning for a AAA team! You'll have a great view of the Charlotte skyline no matter where you sit. The latest game I went to had fireworks, which I thought would be small but were honestly fourth of July/New Year's level! The only thing is that food and drinks are extremely expensive here. While that's the case for many stadiums, it's a AAA league... Though they do have deals on Thursday, I believe! Also, I wouldn't recommend sitting in the field seats, the view is obscured and it's difficult to see the action. It might be a good spot to bring a family with children, though. read more

Beautiful ballpark right in Uptown with great views of the city. I don't think there is a bad seat in the ballpark. I had Home Plate Club tix, which included access to the Diamonds Direct Lounge. Loved this area because we were able to watch the game without having to endure the summer heat. The lounge was very nice and had its own separate bar. Looking forward to another game! read more
