Our trip was a slightly belated birthday present for me. Great baseball and a huge victory over Harrisburg. I enjoyed the circus acts, fireworks, and mango wheat beer, which paired nicely with ice cream + funnel cake fries. It was a fun evening. I want to go back. read more

Stadium wasn't clean from the night before! Disgusting and Disappointing. I was there for the 1A MD State Championship baseball game. read more

It's a decent stadium for AA ball. I wouldn't put this in my favorite category, but there are some positive attributes. Can't think of a bad seat here, as the views of the field are nice. Also the seats and bleachers are fairly comfortable, along with having some leg room. I've been here several times, and last night the Altoona Curve beat the home team. The fireworks show last night was well done. As for getting here be careful on 301 and 50. Drivers are maniacs, although the team has done well with its parking lot. Yes prices are expensive at all minor league events, but their prices are ridiculous. If you're wanting us to shell out this money, also make sure you bring a credit card, build more restrooms and get the food lines moving. Absolutely madness. Still a good time. It was fun to see Louis from Bowie the mascot again. read more

Stadium for minor league baseball the Chesapeake Bay Sox. It's easy to navigate. However, it was not an enjoyable time. They had a double header. Our tickets were the 2nd game. They were supposed to have $2 beers until the start of the game. They cut it off at 6 pm a 1/2 hour before start time. They ran out of pizza. An hour in and they closed one of the two concession stands. Had to go to opposite ends of the stadium for 2 different beers. Not enough health choices for food. Overpriced concessions & ridiculously overpriced merchandise. This is not the major league so hats shouldn't be $40 , Jerseys shouldn't be $110. And lastly, not a fan of cashless purchases at a stadium. It may be something that stadiums are doing but it sucks. read more

Take me out to the ball game! I've been coming here since around the time the stadium first opened nearly 30 years ago. I have some fond memories of going there with my dad and catching some soon-to-be Orioles players out there with the minor league AA affiliate Bowie Baysox. Now I get to share that experience with my own family. We were there on a very crowded night, as they were doing a special event for elementary school kids and their reading program. The stadium was at capacity, supposedly! We heard they were turning folks away at the gate. Wow! Still, it was not too packed in the bleachers or even the reserved seats, but I guess a lot of folks were milling about in the food lines and other venues at the stadium. For being nearly 30, the place doesn't show a ton of wear-and-tear. The amenities are nice, the food isn't as ridiculously overpriced as you might find in the major leagues, and there are plenty of options for the kids who aren't that into the game. Parking is free, but you might have a bit of a walk, especially if the place fills up on game day. Still, it's not that bad all things considered. And hey, do the majors have free parking? Not that I've ever encountered! The ticket prices are more than reasonable, and you have a lot of options. It's a quaint and cozy stadium, intimate but large enough. It has a great hometown ball-team feel to it. And that's probably the best part about coming here. Check the schedule for promotions, as they frequently have many giveaways, special events, and deals. Fireworks nights are very popular, so be sure to get your ticket early and arrive even earlier! All-in-all, it's a wonderful place to build some great lasting memories. read more

This stadium doesnt have the infrastructure for a half filled stadium.....Sat 22 Jul, 40 minutes for food, 30 min for beer line.....

Great affordable entertainment for couples, families, and kids! Baseball is the main attraction, but there is also good food vendor options, carousel for kids, and free fireworks following a lot of weekend games. Check their schedule to learn more, and Go Baysocks!!! read more

Free parking, easy to navigate, and not a bad seat in the house. Prince Georges Stadium is a great place to catch a game. It's always well maintained, and i've never had any issues with staff. read more

Bottom Line: An easy to navigate stadium that primarily serves as the home to the Bowie Baysox baseball team, the class AA affiliate of the Baltimore Orioles. The Bowie Baysox are about 24 years old now and they still play at the Prince George's Stadium which is also 24 years old. Two nice things about a minor league stadium is that the parking is free and the stadium is easy to navigate. It's so nice when your seat is close to the concession stand, the bathroom and the car. Also, prices to attend a game here are affordable and they have fireworks after the game on Saturday nights. The concession stands are pretty typical. I do wish they had a big screen to replay plays because that would make the fame a bit easier to follow. Also, the fans here seem to be a great, chill crowd with good sportsmanship. The stadium has special event spaces like private boxes and a pavilion that can be rented for parties. They have a Carousel too. Prince George's stadium hosts other events like lacrosse games and concerts. read more

Prince George's Stadium - Stadiums & Arenas Near Me - Bowie, Maryland

We went to a Wednesday evening Bowie (I'm not a Maryland native, so I ALWAYS say this incorrectly) Baysox game. The stadium sits sort of off the beaten path behind some commercial buildings. It's well marked, but I still felt like we were going to some big box store when we made the turn. After a short drive through some trees we came to a large parking lot. There were some attendants directing traffic, but for the most part the lot was empty and we had no trouble finding parking fairly close to the entrance. The worst part about the game was the traffic on 95/495 on the way there, so we were a few minutes late for the 6:35 start time. The good thing is that there were NO lines to get it and lots and lots of seating once we got inside. About half of the vendors were closed (attendance really was low). The stadium was clean and everyone working there was very friendly and nice. Lots of eye contact and smiling, which is pretty cool when you're taking your 5 year old to a ball game. We sat on the left side in the GA seating (orange benches) so that we would be in the shade. There was a large kiddie area on the opposite side that looked like it had some bounce houses and a carousel, although we didn't check it out up close. We ordered french fries (very good), pizza (fine), chicken sandwich (grilled with NO salt, yuck), and a pitt beef sandwich (good), with a soda and a beer to wash it all down. Also ice cream, because we were in a ball park and didn't get a hot dog, so we AT LEAST had to have ice cream. The team lost, but... it didn't really matter. There were lots of goofy activities for the kids on the field, dizzy bat races, sumo wrestling, The best part? The mascot's name is Louie, so now I can remember that Bowie rhymes with Louie, and isn't pronounced like David Bowie. Okay, maybe that wasn't the best part, but I'm still pretty pleased with it. read more

Prince George's Stadium - May 27, 2015. A beautiful night for baseball! - Stadiums & Arenas Near Me - Bowie, Maryland

We went on $1 hot dog and $2 draft night at the pavilion (tent)! It ends when the game starts but it was great fun. The stadium itself is really neat for minor league play. They even have an assortment of wine available! Highly recommend going to a game and enjoy the hustle of those who want to make it to the Big leagues! read more

Prince George's Stadium - Stadiums & Arenas Near Me - Bowie, Maryland

(7/24/2016) Great little stadium in Bowie, centrally located between DC, Annapolis, and Baltimore. Prices really cheap, $10 general admission. Since it was going to be one of those 100F days in the middle of the summer, went primadonna-style and got suite seats in the Diamond View Restaurant. It was perfect, felt like low-rent royalty, only $23 for access to A/C, clean bathrooms, and table service. I'm not a super huge baseball fan, but I do enjoy a live game every once in a while, and I do like my creature comforts. You also get access to the private outdoor seating section, directly behind home plate. We were the only ones out there, it was like our own private party. I have done GA before and there isn't a bad seat in the house, just if you want some shade, sit on the 3rd base side (west), that way in the late afternoon you won't be roasting. Prices are still high for concessions, considering it's just a hot dog or bag of popcorn, but you're a captive audience, no where else to go, and no outside food can be brought in (unlike at Camden Yards). The food in the restaurant is actually pretty good and the prices would be on par with any other sit down restaurant with table service. Love the minors for the hometown stunts between the innings. Come for the fireworks, they rival anything in the surrounding cities and you're out in the boonies so it gets dark, like for reals, you can see stars and everything. read more

Best place in the state for a minor league baseball game

Minor league games are a lot of fun to go to. The Baysox make their home here at Prince George's Stadium and they're the Double A affiliate of the Baltimore Orioles. The stadium itself is pretty small, but for about eighteen dollars or so, you can get really close to the action (right behind home plate or the dugouts). Not only that, but it's a great place to bring the kids and take in a ball game without the hullabaloo of going to a Major League park. Down the right field line, they have a "carnival" type area where you can right a merry-go-round or test your throwing ability using a radar and such. They also have many events for kids. On the second floor behind home plate, there is a restaurant that you can rent out and use for birthday parties and the like. If you want that ballpark frank, they have them here at the many concession stands. They have the works, pretzels, pretzels filled with cheese, hot dogs, burgers, ice cream, pizza and the list goes on. They do have a small store where you can get your souvenirs. The one thing I don't understand is why they have a enclosed deck display. When I go to a game, the one thing I want to do is shop for a new deck. Weird. read more

I was here early in the season a few years ago before it really felt like baseball season. There wasn't much of a crowd, but I could still tell this was a good park. Prince George's Stadium is home to the Bowie Baysox, the Double A Affiliate of the Baltimore Orioles. As with most minor league parks there's not really a bad seat. And since it wasn't a crowded house we moved seats a few times for a different view. My favorite ended up being the seats just below the announcer's box not just for the view but for the colorful commentary we were able to enjoy during the game. Another thing I find (or expect to find) at minor league parks is a focus on family fun, a friendly mascot and perhaps an attraction/gimmick or two. At Prince George's Stadium, there is a lighthouse in right field that makes a good photo opportunity. There is also a merry-go-round in the outfield but I didn't partake. I did, however, manage to get a photo Louie, the Baysox mascot. Not surprisingly they also have different theme nights throughout the season to help attract fans. Unfortunately I was not here on a theme night but I did leave with a souvenir cup. Good place to bring a friend or the family for a fun night out. It'll be a cheap night and the parking is free. read more

A good, clean, newish-feeling minor league stadium. Easily accessible off Route 50. Cheaper than Camden Yards. You can get a great seat for about $11. Foodwise prices are probably comparable but maybe cheaper. I recommend skipping the "ordinary" food and going to the gourmet stand for the barbecue beef. Level of play at AA is decent and you can see some good ball here. My only gripe with the Baysox is that, in an effort to be family-friendly they have made it too much of a three ring circus. There is some stupid, distracting event between nearly every half inning and there is always some annoying music or announcement going on. How about just letting us relax and watch the game? read more

Very family friendly! I go to about 3 games a season and they're always a lot of fun. Sometimes they'll have themes (last weekend was Super Hero night, and so all of the staff and even some attendees wore costumes -- we spotted Spiderman, Wolverine, the Flash, Superman and even a Power Ranger or two) but even on regular nights, there's plenty to do. Tickets are pretty affordable, especially when you compare the prices to major league games. For 5 of us to get General Admission seating, the cost was $45. There aren't really bad seats in this stadium either, unless you're on the side that faces the sun (and even then, the sun goes down eventually). There's an area for kids to hang out at, with a carousel and a few moon bounces. I've never been over there, but it looks interesting enough. The variety of food available is pretty amazing. Their black-bean burger is vegetarian-friendly and delicious. I usually get a corndog or pizza, but I've never had anything there that wasn't good. Plenty of dessert choices, too! I usually opt for vanilla soft serve, but you can get sundaes or Dippin Dots or Ritas! Go on a night when they're doing a fireworks display. Those never disappoint! read more

This was a nice ballpark with wide concourses and good sight lines. The only problem was the concession stands, they took forever and I missed three innings during which the Baysox scored all the game's runs. Also fans in the general admission area leave a lot to be desired. Few watch the game, most arrive late, and young kids jump from seat to seat not caring who they disturb. read more

If you have kids this is a great place to go to watch a ball game. Tickets are reasonable, general admission is pretty open so kids can move around, and there is a whole kids section with an old time carousel. My family had a blast, we will for sure be back next season, and are sad we waited until the end of the season to go to our first game here. Some other mom friendly things, clean bathrooms and low sinks make for easy bathroom time with a toddler! read more

Prince George's Stadium - She was excited for the game to start, showing off her free bat on kids appreciation night. - Stadiums & Arenas Near Me - Bowie, Maryland

Let's face it. You don't want to go to a minor league baseball game, but every once in a while, you do. I live in Bowie. I have only been to a handful of games here. I wonder why. First of all, I really enjoyed the game. They are a professional team and play well. The stadium, as with all minor league teams, is small. But it is nice. Great views anywhere you sit. Good eats, and sports expensive. Lots of family type of events keeping the kids happy and interested. So, I wonder why don't I go more often. Go Baysox! read more

This is best place to watch a ball game . The ticket are not expensive especially general admission. Not a bad seat in the house no obstructed seats. Concession prices can be little pricy but not anything u cant afford. No its not Camden yards but i like it much better. No nose bleed seats the staff is great between innings activity are cute . Go on weekends fri and sat night fireworks and kids can run the bases read more

Family friendly. Food/memorablia/drinks pretty expensive for a small place. This is a "good clean fun" type place.

Pretty nice for a little minor league stadium. We went with Mr. Logical's alumni group and had a nice evening. I'll be honest though, which I know about baseball is minimal. The only real reason I went was for baseball food! I was not disappointed when we ordered barbecue beef. I thought the popcorn was overpriced for what I got, but that is kind of to be expected. The bathrooms were also super clean, which was awesome. read more

I was shocked by rude, uncaring staff. My son had an unexpected stomach trouble so I thought the staff would be considerate in letting us bring a little food for his restricted diet. I was upset by the callous way the staff handled it. Never going back to that place again. read more
