Daikin Stadium To catch American baseball, at an American stadium live was something at the back of my mind. Couldn't believe that I actually got to do it and Astros won the match that day, and THAT made all the difference. The erstwhile Minute Maid park was brought over by Daikin and Astros get to rule here. Watching on TV gives all the close ups, but the Texan pride songs, the motivation trumpets, the train horn when one hits a home run, that's just such a blast and have to be in person to experience it. ! It is an all natural grass field. Wonder how they maintain it. I thought it was a carpet until I was rectified. It is just soo neat and beautiful. While it is majorly a baseball stadium, during off seasons it is also used for soccer, rugby, or even concerts. The hallway is filled with pictures of legends and Baseball heroes. The floor shines like a new penny and everyone is soo very friendly and in the spirit of the game. Parking was a breeze since it was VIP entrance. But, there is a huge huge parking fitting all pockets, with some walking involved. There is a also a metro station about 15-20 min walk, for those who want to be spared the trouble of parking. Got entrance with the Gallagher club which was right next to the train (the train while hoots and moves at every home run) As soon as the wards outside check ur tickets and let you in, you walk right into a restaurant cum bar kind of a place. Except that all food, and most beverages are free, or, added onto the price of the ticket... The food bar was huge and a lot of them did not speak english, but that did not matter because those who could went out of their way to help me get only vegetarian. I stuck to salads and then loaded myself on desserts- oh the desserts ! I mean their bite size cakes, the mango pudding, cookies....and ice cream....it was just a party ! The game itself It was the first of the three matches of the Astros team. They played against Rookies. The friends' I went with explained the scoring and the rules and stuff, and pretty soon I was oohing and awwing and screaming while rooting for the home team. It was soo much fun !!! Not my first time in a stadium, but definitely my first time watching Astros, or even baseball for that matter in live action. Astros won and the stadium ruptured with screams. Ahhh...THAT ...that is what makes a live action sport all worth it. (U can book driverless cab WAYMO near the stadium The cherry on the top was I also saw my first electric driverless cab. It has a bigger board and runs in the downtown area of Houston for now. As I watched the passengers get into the car, my heart was beating fast with anxiety. THough I am aware that it is where the future is heading, a car with no driver- still gives me the chills ! .....Lol ) A great night overall. Perfect blast of a getaway with friends. read more

Daikin Park (formerly Minute Maid Park) is a clean, comfortable, fully air-conditioned stadium that makes watching baseball in Houston actually enjoyable--especially during those hot Texas days. The climate control alone is a huge win, and the retractable roof adds flexibility depending on the weather. The views from just about anywhere in the park are great, and the overall atmosphere is exciting whether you're a die-hard fan or just there for the experience. One of the coolest features is the iconic train in left field--it's a fun touch that gives the stadium its own personality. Amenities are solid across the board. There's a massive jumbotron, plenty of food options (the brisket nachos are a must-try), and the facilities are well-maintained and clean. Parking can be a bit tricky and pricey right near the stadium, so it's worth parking a few blocks away to save some money and enjoy a short walk in. The only downside is the cost of food and drinks - they're definitely on the expensive side and concession lines can get long during peak times. Overall: A fantastic ballpark with great comfort and unique features. Just plan ahead for parking and be ready to spend a little extra on snacks! read more

Daikin Park has that classic baseball charm and is home to the Houston Astros. The downtown skyline can be seen from inside the ball park. The historic Union Station entrance is unique and the retractable roof keeps games comfortable while still giving you that open-air feel. Inside, the atmosphere is electric. Astros fans show up, and when the team is playing well, the place gets loud. There really isn't a bad seat in the house. The food scene has leveled up too. It's not just standard stadium food anymore. You'll find everything from Texas BBQ to creative local eats and solid cocktail and dessert options. Parking can be a headache as with any ball park, and downtown traffic before and after games is no joke. Whether you're an Astros fan or just love the game, Daikin park is a must visit. read more

Formerly known as Minute Maid Park, Daikin Park was just a name change to me because everything is the same as I remembered. It was my pleasure to attend 2 Astros games in 2025. One was in May to celebrate AAPI Heritage with my nonprofit group and the other one in June for no particular reason. Well, I missed the Pride game on that Tuesday. So, I came back that Friday to buy the Pride shirt. Entering the park is easier now. But it took a little time on the first time. Because I had to create an MLB Go-ahead Entry. It took the same amount of time to wait in line to get scanned. My second time was just walk up and do a face scan and I am in. The app was only for ticket management. My face acts as my ticket for entry. So neat. It also knows how many people are on my ticket. The tickets are not cheap. The cheapest ticket to watch Astros will be far up by the roof. Me and my friend got dizzy walking up from the aisle to the seat. Well... we didn't go far. took some pictures before we walked up. I could use the app to transfer my ticket to a friend and vice versa. Services were pretty good at Daikin Park during the Astros games. I would definitely coming back next Astros season, mostly during pre-season. I like the atmosphere, not too much of the games. read more

My all-time favorite baseball stadium! I absolutely LOVE that it has a retractable roof - this keeps us cool on hot, humid Houston days and dry whenever it randomly decides to rain. The AC is almost always blasting inside, which is such a blessing compared to other stadiums. I love that they have so many different photo op spots! Plus, the announcer is so entertaining!! His enthusiasm is so infectious, you can't help but smile and enjoy the atmosphere. Whether you're a longtime fan or just attending a game while you're in town, you're sure to make some lasting memories! read more

Attended my first Astros game playing the Yankees and I had so much fun! Being a native Houstonian, I've never attended a game here but now am eager to go back. I was able to find free parking a few blocks over. It was easy to locate our gate due to security being on the corner directing people on where to go. Check in was straight forward. Since it was a Tuesday, we partook in the $1 hot dog special which did not disappoint. The infamous El Tiempo margarita line was super long so I waited until the 6th inning to grab drinks. One drink is valid per ID so my boyfriend did end up having to rush over to order his. They were really good! Our section was lively with great seats. I am looking forward to attending another game! read more

It was an interesting adventure getting to the game yesterday among other mishaps at Ice Box Park, yet the pay off was worth it. 'Stros were practically shut out the entire game until Pena slid in for a single run in the 9th to tie the game. Then, in the 10th, Dubón hits a single and clenches a win for Houston! I love the kinds of plays. As for the park itself, the security teams outside could be much nicer and follow their own procedures. Every time we come to an Astros game, security is always in a power-trip bad mood. Most of our bad experiences are especially at the Left Field entrance. We've talk to management about it, yet nothing seems to change. read more

This was my second visit to the Astros ballpark, with my first visit coming in 2009. I'm not a big fan of the park. First, there isn't a lot around the park to visit pregame. Second, unless you're on the lower level the A/C doesn't make it up to the second deck. I've been to all the current domed stadiums in MLB and this is in the bottom tier of that group. I will say for a Thursday afternoon game, the crowd was energetic and the employees were friendly. Overall the stadium just feels large. It will probably be another 16 years before I visit here again. Not a fan. read more

I attended my first MLB game ever, and saw the Astros play the Padres -- what a fun experience! The venue is enormous, and I appreciated that it was an enclosed dome.

Lots of little things add up to a big hassle. Plenty of promises made about how great buying season tickets would be. Perks, special events, great payment plans, visits and check ins from our sales person were all supposed to be part of the deal. Very little of that turned out to be true. Payment info not correct, app doesn't work, and ticket offers don't come up. Rather than solve issues it seems like "buy add ons" is the only option. Giveaways at the ball park this year are like not knowing what the secret code is for a hideout. You are there more than two hours before the game starts and still not receiving the promotion. Even with boxes of giveaways left, they are either set aside for others, or if you go in the entrance that doesn't have the item you can't get one at another entrance as re-entry is not allowed. If you ask at the entry if they still have the item they won't tell you so you can try another entrance. Daikin's concessions page is in desperate need of an update. Several of the new items and restaurants on the list are not available or no longer there. Improvement is needed. The Astros and their fans deserve better. read more

Parked blocks away for free parking which was not bad. Even paid $10 for a bike ride with music to the front of the stadium. I like that it's an indoor ballpark because it rained heavy, but it was humid inside and the park is small. My least favorite that I've been to so far. read more

The renamed Minute Maid Park, Daikin is still in the same ballpark, just with revised naming rights. Parking is generally not ideal; overpriced Astros and public lots unless you have free parking or downtown parking. The premiere baseball stadium in Houston, definitely a fun place to bring family. Lots of opportunities to spend money to fund the Crane family enterprises. The food generally is overpriced and subpar and the team store charges an arm and a leg for anything decent quality. Come for the baseball sporting experience and I would recommend bringing your own water and snacks (it is allowed) to minimize some of the blatant overcharges (a lot of regulars do this). The club and suite level are definitely a lot cleaner and less rowdy and better for those with kids. The Astros staff are quite stuck up and get power trips from being sticklers so just be wary of that. read more

We love the stros. But... I will say that they make it so hard to get into the stadium. any other stadium or venue space and I am using a clear purse, they just wave you in. that's the point of a clear bag, is it not? They stopped to search me, my purse, they stopped my husband bc he had a diaper bag. they spent 10 minutes going through the diaper bag. my 4y (oldest) is special needs so we never leave without a diaper bag for her or little sister. Bc she is special needs, trying to get into the stadium is OVERWHELMING. She is on the spectrum and she went into full on melt down mode pulling and screaming. Honestly despite my love for the team, I dont think I'll be returning. It is heartbreaking to see my baby who is autistic absolutely losing their mind and there's nothing i can do about it bc this guy is digging through my bag with a stick for 10 minutes. Now about this experience....(our first and last I suppose) We were in the suites. It was great service once we got up there. Theres not many signs that include where to go for that, so I approached a lady in sec 119 and she directed me where to go. The guy that was upstairs in our suite was amazing. My girls had a great time and got a certificate that shows it was their first ever Astros game. We got free sun hats with Orbit on it. LOVED it. my girls probably loved 5th inning ice cream cart showing up. it was just perfect. read more

One of my favorite ball parks! It's amazing! The fans are incredible! When Altuve comes up to plate the energy in the place is unequal. The bottom of the 7th and two errors by Detroit was a game changer and I got caught up in the energy of place. The people that work there are amazing as well. Always with a smile and friendly service. Like all parks the beer and food can be pricey but hey, you're sitting in the middle of the best place on earth. read more

Not really sure how I ended up being the first person to review this place but we got some free tickets to an Astros game and it wasn't a 7pm game so we brought our three year old for his first Astros game! Daikin field was easy to get to and we did pre paid parking for $20 and a short ten minute walk. Our seats were easy to find and everything was labeled really well. Bathrooms were close to where we were sitting and there were good snack bar options. Our seats were in the top section but we had a great view and Daikin Park is really well spaced out. Lots of places to linger and there's a small photo op area for kids and families along the first base line by the team store. read more

Beautiful stadium. No matter where you park, you have to walk a bit to get to the stadium. Parking ranges from 10 to 40 bucks. There's bikes with seats attached that can bring you closer to the stadium but I don't know how much those cost. Surprisingly they didn't do bag searches, but they pulled guys aside to screen them. Getting in and finding our seats was pretty easy. Most of the food places are on the first floor. We were on the 4th floor, section 417, even though they were nosebleed seats, we had a great view of the stadium and field. The fireworks post game are fantastic, but it's only on Friday games. When you eat or drink in the stadium, be prepared to pay a good penny as everything is inflated. 1 pretzel and 20oz coke was $18. The seats in the upper sections don't have proper airflow and it gets pretty stuffy up there. Definitely recommend to come see a game in person, it's atmosphere that makes it worth it! read more

We had a great time at the Astros game! The stadium had great food options and the lines weren't terrible. I was kind of surprised that there wasn't a good spot for a photo at the main entrance.

Daikin Park Center Field Tour It has been many years since we last visited the then-newly christened Minute Maid Park for a tour. We decided to take the more comprehensive two-hour Center Field Tour this time, which turned out to exceed all expectations. Lee, our charming and excellent guide, took us behind the scenes throughout the facility while sharing the history of the Astros and their journey from the Colt 45s Stadium to the Astrodome to Daikin Park today bringing back fond memories of following the Astros since I was a young lad. This is an outstanding tour. Thank you Lee and the entire tour team for being such wonderful hosts and sharing your passion for the home team. read more

This past weekend I took in the four game sweep by the Athletics! As well I took in the Ultimate Ballpark tour on Friday afternoon. Of course I enjoyed the ballgames and the Astros obliging the sweep by the Athletics with their inept play. The tour I took was phenomenal. The guide provided expert insight and guidance, you'll see numerous pictures of some of the locations visited. As for the games and stadium experience, I sat in four different spots to get some various perspectives of the game. It's not a bad place to take in a game. Obviously, because of the local weather, a dome is necessary. Of course that does feel a bit different than attending a real baseball game outside. Nevertheless I had an enjoyable experience. Food was alright, nothing particularly noteworthy. Popcorn is fresh popped, always important! They did put on a quality fireworks show on the Friday night I attended. It was pretty cool to experience the roof opening. read more

What a game!! Our first Astros game & we had so much fun! We walked from our hotel to Minute Maid Park. We grabbed a couple of beers from a vendor inside the entrance we went in. Sipped on them as we made our way to our seats in the upper deck. We kept seeing people carrying around baskets of huge chicken tenders. I asked someone where they got theirs & off I went to get some. It was a place called Tenders Love Chicken in the upper deck area. They have a self-serve station for alll of their sauces! The chicken tenders were huge, crispy on the outside, & juicy on the inside. The fries were really good too for being just basic fries. The Astros won the game & the Friday night fireworks were incredible with downtown Houston in the background. (Even watching the roof retract was fun to watch!) Overall I felt it was a pretty clean place. The women's restroom I used was clean. Around the food vendors was clean. read more

Daikin Park - Prices - Stadiums & Arenas Near Me - Houston, Texas

My first time here and was really amaze how big the main souvenir store was and not only that they have 2 smaller boutiques in the park. The food kiosk employees remained their composure despite the big crowd's non stop food orders. A guy behind the food counter was very pleasant and went above and beyond his way to make sure we got our food orders complete. When I went to buy water from the kiosk a young lady at the register asked me which water brand I prefer and I replied "smart water". She asked how "smart" is the water? I was surprised because she had a serious look on her face when she asked me then I laughed after realizing she was joking; and she grinned at me :) Kudos to the people manning the doors to the seats, people manning every floor and those who maintain the restrooms' orderliness and cleanliness. Although the $1 hotdog was a hit, I enjoyed the corn dog, lol. Such a fun place! read more

Minute Maid stadium still serves the ice cream in their souvenir baseball helmets. I wish I kept mines. I like the Astro souvenir cup, the presentation is the original jersey style.

I couldn't believe he was 85 years young getting up and down those stairs. What a beautiful soul. He had fantastic energy, he imitated jangle leg from the film LIFE, an toss the peanuts. I'll definitely look for him whenever I'm visiting Minute Maid stadium. Attended the Astros or shall I say Space city verses Seattle game. Really great game. The world champs won of course 2-7.
