This was a fun outing with dad! We watched the game and ate popcorn! Dad had a hot dog but I was already full! We didn't walk around so much because we wanted to watch but it seems like they had a decent variety of food! The team well they shut the game down early because it was a blow out but all in all it was a fun time! I would come back. Bathrooms were clean. read more

Such a fun night out at the park! I love watching baseball, but major league can get expensive. We decided to take in a Baysox game and I was pleasantly surprised by how great everything was! They have really good food options including the regular ball park food- hotdogs, chicken tenders and fries, burgers- but also have some more upscale options upstairs in the restaurant (if you have box or reserved seats you can dine there and watch the game.) also, beers are only $10 compared to the $20 at Camden yards and they have way more draft options to choose from. I highly recommend for the whole family! read more

Rooting for our local team gets exciting when surrounded by local fans. The stadium is big, they have kept up with maintenance, and there are always some delicious snacks available for purchase. The carousel continues to be open for our little fans to enjoy. The new electronic board makes it easy to keep up with the score. Don't forget to visit the gift shop. read more

Great baseball-Family friendly! Favorite place to see good talent and up and coming talent. Parking is free and the food and concessions are reasonably priced. No need to worry about 'Joe-knows-baseball' screaming expletives at players and umpires. That is frowned upon here. Staff is helpful from parking to finding your seat. Fans of baseball should visit this stadium! read more

I've grown up around the Baysox Stadium and have been attending games ever since I can remember. The games are great for people of all ages - couples, families, friend groups, and all! Parking is free at the stadium which is great - traffic flows in and out of the area at a pretty good clip. The staff are helpful and friendly - they'll gladly answer questions about seating, the facilities, or even the ball team. The food and drink options are pretty great - they have food stalls all over the main concourse. Lots of different draft and canned beer options; a good place to try a few new local selections. The lines at the various stands also move very quickly; I appreciate how fully staffed the stadium always is. I love that I can go to a quality baseball game at a very reasonable price and enjoy a fun evening. The crowd really gets into the fandom of the game - the cheers, the songs, and the dancing really adds to the overall experience. Bonus points for the fireworks shows! A GREAT 10ish minute fireworks show at the end of most games! read more

It's a decent AA stadium, no doubt about that. On a plus note too, there aren't any obstructed seat views, that I seem to remember. Have been here numerous times. Major League Baseball has become to expensive, although inflation is going to hit you here. Still am stunned that two basic Chik Fil A meals set me back $45. That is nuts! You can't make this up, and the long lines for food are a issue. Also limited bathroom facilities. Can you eventually take care of business? Yes but lines are to be expected, but I wish they'd get more of them built. As for the seats quite comfortable and clean. Good PA system that you can hear and understand. Nice employees, and not too difficult parking helps. It's fun to catch the Bowie Baysox, especially on firework nights. read more

We came to we're gifted tickets from my daughters school. They only gave her 2, but I have another daughter who also wanted to go so we made it a family night. Stadium is a nice size! Staff was super friendly and understood most of us were newbies. My only complaint is the wait for food! I missed the first 4 endings being in line!!! It was chaotic! Had I not had children who requested food I would've never stood in line! We are baseball fans so won't be back but it I can't deny it was nice and the girls enjoyed! read more

We decided to stop in for a game on a Sunday night. We've been living in the area for a year and never been to a game but this was a fun spur of the moment thing to do. Tickets are cheap, the food is good and the place looks to be in pretty good shape!! I was highly impressed and really enjoyed myself!! read more

Catching a game here is a great way to get out the house with the family. We love coming and showing support for the team. On a good day, you'll end up front row no matter what seat you purchase. They always have something going on to keep your attention and have a lot of cool activities for the kids to partake in down on the field. Go Baysox! read more

Great minor league baseball experience. We go to a few games a year and always enjoy it. Love the bring your dog to a game promotions. Very easy to get to and out of for a game. Staff are friendly and helpful. Stadium is clean and accessible. read more

This is a fantastic baseball club. I first learned about the Bowie Baysox when I attended an event that was held there several years ago. I am not much into baseball, so I had never been to a minor-league game or knew much about it. I actually enjoyed the fact that it was a smaller stadium and that I learned a lot of behind the scenes information. That makes watching baseball a little more enjoyable for me. LOL They have several facilities within the park that are available for group events. Of course, during the pandemic I don't imagine they are doing anything like that, especially since the minor-league season did not take place. However, I attended prior to the pandemic. I had the opportunity to attend an event at the outdoor pavilion as well as one inside. The outdoor pavilion is awesome, especially on a beautiful day. There was a beer cart and it was close to food vendors. It was a great chance to network and enjoy the group, and then be able to go to our seats to watch the game. The same was true of the indoor area. I was even able to throw out the first pitch at one of the games I attended! They go above and beyond to make it a fun and affordable experience for a family. Even if you're not a big baseball fan, when you have the opportunity, I would highly recommend going to see a game at the Bowie Baysox Stadium (actually called the Prince George's stadium). read more

Such a great family fun place! Really great for families and kids! They do so many activities and games to get the fans and kids involved. Parking was so easy! We were in and out with parking in under 10 minutes and it's free. The food, drinks, and snacks were the same price and quality as stadium food but less variety. It was hot and fresh though! We had excellent seats! Three rows back from home plate but not behind the net. A gentlemen nearby was hit by a bat that flew out of the batters hand. The stadium workers and emergency team were excellent in assisting him and even gave him and a bat and ball. He was okay in the end but still. It is a risk you take of course, just glad he was okay! Definitely great place to go especially to see baseball and take the family or go with friends! read more

Nice ballpark but...DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THE FOOD! It's burnt, it's raw, and it's NOT GOOD! I went to get a burger for my child and they gave me a burnt burger and I asked to have another one. They said 5mins. So I waited and another burger came out...not too burnt but raw in the inside. Don't they know how to cook a burger?! Dang, the flame on the grill was too hot--meaning that it'll cook and burn the outside but not cook the inside. I guess to them, it's more quantity versus quality--Ball park food at its best!!! If I come back here, I'm going to be sure to eat before I get here--and you should too! The pictures says it all! read more

Yeah! Go Baysox! BP bought a ticket pack during O's Fest. The ticket booklet had a bunch of coupons in the back for food at the stadium and passes to play games in the Kid's area. We definitely took advantage of these during slow innings. The food was great and there was a lot of variety. The Nachos were really good and I even got a hot dog :) Our seats were great, the staff was helpful and spirited (we came on Irish Appreciation Day) and the game was tons of fun! read more

Great, local baseball stadium. The fireworks shows are spectacular. The view and food from the restaurant are wonderful also and offer a great view of the game. There are really no bad seats in the house. Family friendly. read more

It was a great day of baseball! We were invited to the park for a birthday party and the parents rented a suite. The view was great, the people were very friendly and the team played well with an extra inning win! Between innings the entertainment on the field was fun to watch and it keeps the kids involved. The suite has tables and chairs and of course air conditioning, in case you go on an extremely hot day or don't take heat well. The restrooms were down the hall, clean and well maintained. The outdoor seating connected to the suite was in the shade, so it was perfect for a sunny afternoon game. They have nice giveaways throughout the season and it wasn't so crowded that it was uncomfortable in your seat. Plus, your kids have a better chance at catching a foul ball and taking home a souvenir. After the game, they had a helicopter candy drop for the kids, then they had a chance to run the bases. If your kids like baseball but get bored at a MLB game, try a minor league park. read more

The May 6th promotion night was a nightmare. Extremely poor planning to invite so many schools and other groups all together on the same night rather than spreading out the groups into different nights so that there is an attendance level that they can actually handle. Traffic was a complete mess on the way in because of the overwhelming attendance. I was charged for a parking space I couldn't use because their parking lot filled up way early and everyone had to park at the BJ's lot. Food lines were horrible. I will never ever go to a Baysox game again because of this stupid promotion and I will certainly never recommend anyone else go. read more

Standard cost, standard ball game food, standard seats....just a normal minor league ball game. They do have a lot of different special nights and themes that are probably a really good time. I DO really appreciate that they do not charge for parking! Thank you so much for that! read more

It's a nice stadium to catch a good ball game but this one employee was unbelievable. It was obvious he didn't care to help us, he was rude and very condescending, and made our experience all around unpleasant. His name was Joe Wroblewski and the fact that they would hire an employee like him tells us all we need to know about this place. read more

This is a great stadium to come visit great prices for seat very friendly staff. Highly recommended coming to see the Bowie Baysoxs!!!! read more

Ah, the Bowie Baysox. Our own local AA minor league team. Minors, you say? Why would you go see anyone but the big league players? It's simple... THIS is real baseball! The Bowie Baysox stadium is like the old days of Babe Ruth and Ty Cobb. You can see the players and feel like you're in the game. When your team makes mistakes, you accept it as part of the minors. When your team pulls off an amazing play, you are out of your seat and cheering because it IS the minors. There are no nosebleed seats here, no long walks just to get somewhere, no strips of stores where you spend more time than watching the game. There isn't a single seat here more than 100 feet from the field. There are no overpriced tickets here. $10 for general admission ($7 for kids); compare that to $30+ if you go to an Oriole's game and sit in similar areas. Concessions might be a bit pricey, like a movie theater, but they're still cheaper and the food is good. The Baysox makes you feel up close and personal to the game. On top of that, it's a family friendly affair, with all sorts of silly presentations between innings, an area dedicated to the kids (including a carousel), and an awesome mascot (Go Louie!). The Baysox are an experience you cannot miss. If you've been to minor league games, you'll know what I'm talking about. If you haven't? What are you waiting for?! Take your family out to the ballpark, take them out to the game! Don't forget to buy them some peanuts and crackerjacks; they probably won't care if they never get back! read more

If you're desperate for entertainment or too lazy to trek to Baltimore or DC for a game, trekking to a Baysox game could be one of your better options. While the game is not necessarily the main reason that you're there, the seats are cheap enough that you can bring your entire posse to keep you company. Food within the arena is reasonably cheap and comes in a wide variety. I myself fancy the funnel cake/Dippin Dot combination. And if you're lucky, you're bound to hit one of those nights where you can get something for free. If not, about 75% of the time they have fireworks at the end of each game as your consolation. read more

I'm a bit conflicted on this review. On the positive side, the Bowie Baysox is minor league baseball -- plain and simple. It's America's Pastime at a less than major league level and it's exactly what you expect. However, due to "Eastern League" rules or whatever, you can't bring-in any outside refreshments. This makes going to a game and enjoying nine innings pretty darn expensive. $7 for a beer, $4 for a prezel / bag of peanuts. This is a deal breaker for me. read more

Have been here for many games. This was my second game in my Birdland Passport baseball road trip. It is a great place to see a game. When it sunny and hot I would suggest sitting on the third base side, since you will have the sun at your back. Louie (mascot) was all over the place. It was Star Wars night, which was very entertaining. The folks that work the game are friendly and helpful. They have a good selection of beer at the micro beer stand. They had fireworks after the game, which were good. read more

Pretty cool evening. Baysox lost, but it was nice because they opened up Monday nights to be a dog friendly night so I brought my pup here and we had a great time. Actually didn't pay as much attention to the game as we did the other families that brought their dogs and watching the dogs interact. Food smelled amazing but didn't eat. Just grabbed a couple of beers and had a chill Monday night. read more

Every year we hit a handful of games at Baysox Stadium, and every time we go I have a great time. It is a much better and far less expensive experience then going to see the O's or Nats. The players are more in to the games then at the majors. The fans are friendlier, and the beer is more fairly priced. The stadium has all sorts of fun little things going on when ever the teams switch, and then at the end of many home games....fireworks. It brings out the kid in everyone. Pack up the herd and go. read more

A great piece of Americana! Has that small town feel but only 20 min from DC. Kids can ride merry go round, play on moon bounce, get there face painted. Very family friendly. Tickets are only 10 dollars and parking is free! read more

Great stadium! The location was easy to find with ample parking. I Visited for the 2015 Holiday Expo and the setup was great. Looking forward to next year! read more

Went to our first baysox game with our little one. We arrived early because the website said kids could enter early at 5 through the early entrance. When we approached, the person at the early gate said the event was cancelled. He politely told us we could talk to the front office. We did that, but they had no clue about it. I checked again and it was still listed on the site. This put a damper on the rest of the day. The food vendors were another issue. There were 3 lines open on each stand. This caused the lines to be at least 15 deep at all times. More staff was definitely needed to move things along. I waited almost an inning and a half waiting for food. Our seats were overrun with bees. At one point, there were roughly 10 buzzing around our heads pestering us. Everything else about the game was great- good seats, fireworks, kids area. If they could work on the few things mentioned, it would be a much better time. read more

It was Harry Potter Night at the Baysox game so I was like a giddy child hanging out at the game. They had a Quidditch pre-game, owls, and plenty of art work to take pictures with. The game itself was great. Pretty exciting since it went to extra innings. No win for the Baysox, but the post-game fireworks made the extended game worth the wait. I love the fun atmosphere of the games here & how social everyone was whether it was about Harry Potter facts or talking about different parts of the game. Definitely looking forward to coming back another time! read more

This is a very nice stadium for AA ball. None of the seats are far away, and $14 gets you the best seats in the stadium. Beer is somewhat cheaper than going to a Nationals game, as it should be. For food, I'm a big fan of the cheese filled pretzels, but they do have a decent variety. If you get bored of the baseball, watch the between innings promotions to see other fans do goofy things. They have other good promotions / prizes. It's easy to catch a foul ball and make some kids day by giving it to them. Also, the staff is really nice and will go out of their way to help you. read more

I Got tickets through my school and went with a group of friends this past weekend! It is a smaller stadium but it was still fun! We grabbed some beers and food and the weather ended up being great for the game! Would definitely go back! read more

I have more fun at a Baysox games than I ever had at a major league game. You sit so close, you are so much part of the action that you really feel involved. There are fun promotions between every inning and it's always a light-hearted fun atmosphere. Usually end up making friends (or at least having friendly banter) with folks around us - something that rarely happens in a big stadium. It's great for kids too, with a nice play area. Fireworks nights, super heroes or Star Wars nights... all kinds of extra special events to add t the fun. And the tickets are VERY affordable. Concessions cost about as much as at any other stadium, but you still come out a lot cheaper than MLB. So, yes, technically these guys are not the caliber of players of the majors. But they are young, highly athletic, top-notch athletes working there way up (or Orioles who are working there way back after an injury) - and when you sit this close, you feel the impact of a hard hit ball much more fully then you would sitting 100 ft away in Orioles Park. read more

Stopped by here once when my wife and I visited my sister. Its a nice little stadium and ok ball for a AA level field. Its location is odd, behind some other park area, but once inside, it is rather nice. Compared to the Dayton Dragons stadium. It looks a little aged, but all in all, a good alternative then going to see the big league. read more

Small ball park, aluminum bench seating, average ball park cost for beer.

For a minor league stadium, this one has lots of bells and whistles. The staff is really friendly, although they gave me a lot of good-natured wisecracks on my Yankee hat. (The only minor league stadium where anyone commented on it!) There were lots of concession options, the stadium is very clean and the fans were enthusiastic despite the blowout. I recommend a visit if you live in the DC area. read more

Food lines are horribly slow. This isn't fine dining. Give me a hot dog and beer without waiting in line for 30 minutes. What a joke.

Great stadium, free parking, decent ticket prices. The food could use some improvement and having additional beers on hand would be nice too. Great date night and family experience. read more
