Target Field - Stadiums & Arenas Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

This stadium absolutely rocks for a baseball game or a concert. It is probably the best stadium I have been to. The view of downtown Minneapolis is beautiful. Love the Legends Club level! Great food and bars. The food is really good, don't get me wrong you can still enjoy a beer and a dog, but there is so much more! It's easy to walk around as the hallways are wide. It is easy to find your way around the stadium too! Not a bad seat in the house and they are roomy seats. Bottom line it's a great place to catch a baseball game! I sure hope they have more concerts... Kenny Chesney was great! read more

Beautiful ballpark. Yes, the Twins are not anything to gloat about right now but at least we have a beautiful stadium to watch them in. Love the outside ball that you never got at the former Metrodome. The food and beer is pricey but what stadium isn't? At least it is good food and not just hotdogs and peanuts. Sorry traditionalist, but I'm not paying high prices for a mystery meat tube. You can't beat selections like Pizza Luce, Red Cow Burgers or Izzy's Ice Cream. It is like a small sampling of Uptown all in one place! And the city skyline at sunset. Can't beat that...this is Minnesota baseball folks! read more

One of the newer baseball arenas in the American League; Target Field is centrally located in Downtown Minneapolis - this location can't be beat and has a ton to offer. I will say I was definitely a fan of the layout and amount of places to eat from within and around the stadium. The arena is fairly new in terms of "stadium years" and has been well kept. I would definitely recommend checking out a game or an outdoor concert in this venue if the opportunity presented itself. Although, my trip here landed in June it was still nippy; as this stadium is located in The North, so be sure to bundle up. With all the being said, it is still Go Cubs Go! Cheers, read more

Looks, location, amenities...this place has it all! Location is great...so convenient to anywhere downtown plus it's right on the Light Rail line. Took me 8 minutes to walk from my hotel. Plus, it's a gorgeous park. Tons of beautiful Minnesota limestone when into the construction and it's gorgeous. The design is thoughtful and fan-friendly. With the open concourses, you can just about always see the field. Additionally, the park is LEED-certified and the designers really took a lot of care in fitting the park into the desired footprint, which was constrained by rail lines and highways. Based on the number of stretch pants I saw while visiting, Minnesotans like to eat and this place has some amazing food. I got a steak sandwich one game and a Kramarczuk sausage the second game. The variety was stunning: there was a carving station, a walleye stand, you could even get a pork chop on a stick! What's better than meat on a stick??? I was able to cap my meal off one night wish some super tasty gelato. The beer selection is nice too...they feature a lot of local and regional beers. I'm a fan of the Surly beer cart, but be warned, there's always a line and one time I asked for the Hell but got the Bandwagon. One sniff and I knew they gave me the mega-hoppy Bandwagon by mistake! The tour of this park is great too. The one I was on lasted almost two hours and we got to see a great deal of the park. Loved the view from the Budweiser party deck. The giant etching of Kirby Puckett in the Puckett lounge was nothing short of spectacular. Friendly fans, great views, terrific location, awesome food and beverages make this a must see baseball destination. Target Field has moved into the top three of my favorite ball parks (PNC Park in Pittsburgh is still #1, though). Do yourself a favor and go see a ball game here, preferably when the Twins are playing someone good so you can see some actual baseball. read more

One of the better baseball fields I've been to. If possible, sit on the third-base line for the best views in the park.

Beautiful ballpark, even nicer when my squad comes to town & takes 3 out of 4!! Let's Go Oakland! The hunt for a Green Oaktober is underway! Ok, seriously, this place is a nice template for other new in the city ballparks to follow. You hear that Billy Beane, David Forst, Chris Giles!? Build the new ballpark similar to this, but with better visibility of the field from the OF seating areas, gotta let the bleacher bums enjoy the game, too! They offer some local, non-traditional ballpark fare like cheese curds, they were good, but they didn't provide anything to dip them in, so that reduced the flavor profile to just fried cheese curds...good thing I do Dirty Keto : D Really cool looking Kirby Puckett statue beyond the RF entry gates, I always loved watching him play as a kid & I had the utmost respect for him. RIP. They offer family sections in the upper deck, similar to how Safeco in Seattle is with no booze or swearing. I didn't appreciate that at 22-24 yrs old, but I do now that I'm an uncle. I wasn't overly impressed with the bathroom situation, but I'm an A's fan, we still pee in a trough hahaha ugh Beautiful field & the best part had to be the parking garage that puts you at the ballpark almost immediately! & it's there for the Timberwolves as well! read more

This definitely should be on your list of things to do if in Minneapolis for a summer vacation or long weekend. This field truly meets your expectations in terms of a great view no matter where you sit. Tickets are average priced as far as MLB prices go. Gates open 2hr prior to most games, weekend times may vary just slightly. There is plenty of garages around for parking. Prices run from $10-$20 and more depending on the team they are playing. The ball park itself is pretty spectacular. Multiple vendors all over and plenty of unique food stands as well. Most concession stand prices are that of major league stadiums. A domestic beer can run anywhere from 9-12$ depending whether it's craft, domestic, or imported. The Twins have there own FOX news team reporters which is pretty neat to watch. Overall, definitely a great place to come watch a ball game! read more

I'm a long-time Twins fan and have attended many games at Target Field. The ballpark is great. After attending a game recently, I returned home only to realize that my wallet was no longer in my pocket. I immediately filled out the Twins online lost-and-found form and awaited a reply. Nothing. I left several voicemail messages. Nothing. No calls, no texts, no emails, no response at all. I went to Target Field during daytime hours to try and speak with somebody. Nothing. The employee by the gate seemed to take pleasure in telling me that their procedure meant I could not speak with any employees. He clearly didn't care. It is now 8 (!!!) days later and I have not heard one word. There's no way to know if the Twins have it or if somebody made off with it, so I have begun the process of acquiring a new drivers license, credit cards, etc. because I can no longer wait to hear back from the Twins. I really cannot fathom how an organization could treat its customers this badly. read more

What can I say that hasn't already been said? This really is a nice stadium, probably the nicest in the state. Unfortunately I haven't been to a lot of baseball stadiums and I am pretty sure there are some nicer than Target Field, but it's up there. Skyline views downtown Minneapolis are pretty fantastic, the food is better than average and the beer selection is great. I have sat in the majority of the sections in the stadium and the Legends Club really is worth the price. I also like how Target Field has the separate bar areas like Hrbek's through out the stadium as well. it does get cold for the first month of the season, but they did a good job getting heaters in the right areas. If this team ever plays in October I don't know what they'll do, the last 3 post seasons have been horrible weather in Minnesota. Guess they will have to cross that bridge when they get there, if they get there:) read more

I suppose my review can't include comments about the Twins' inability to win a game. The ballpark is nice, though it reminds me of MOA (my definition of hell on earth), in that there's more of the same at every turn. There isn't a lot of variety in food options, and I've yet to see something even remotely healthy to eat. I keep hearing about all these wonderful things that are supposed to be available. I guess that it's relative. What I do like is that Target Field is very walkable. My hubby likes walking around looking at people and things, so I tag along. I'm a purpose-driven kind of person, so I just don't say anything except in response to whatever he might say on the trek. It's easier than arguing about my desire to find a reason for the walkabout. I don't think of a ballpark when I'm desirous of a walk. I'm also not into people watching. This was something I did with my two favorite older sisters in New York. We were brutal in our comments. Since I don't do that anymore, at least out loud, I prefer to immerse myself in music when walking. Anyway, the seats are pretty comfortable, and I'd advise to always have a jacket with you, no matter the weather. TF seems to have a wind-tunnel effect, so I end up feeling chilled at some point. If you're seeking giant food and ever-flowing beer, this is your place. You might actually catch some good ball playing, though probably by the opposing team. read more

Great field to catch a game at. They did an excellent job with their newer park, really enjoyed the few games I have attended here. Has a great selection of different types of food, should find a few unique local items to try out here.I like when teams make an effort in their food selection, gotta showcase the local goods. Parking has been easy every time I have been and access back on to the interstate has been pretty easy as well. The atmosphere of the park is nice, did a great job with the design and the cheaper seats do have a nice view. Also its pretty easy to walk around and check out other parts of the ballpark out. Love going to baseball games when I can and happy this quality park is within driving range. read more

What a gorgeous park! I had a great time exploring the stadium and checking out all the food options. I was surprised that there were even vegan and gluten free options for the more health conscious fans. I opted for the smothered tater tots from the state fair stand. The architect/design team put a lot of thought into this stadium. There are statues of various Twins superstars along the exterior perimeter of the stadium and lots of historical information to take in as you walk around, too. When the Twins hit a home run, the two guys on the large neon sign behind center field shake hands. There are grand views of the Minneapolis skyline from the park to admire during lulls in the game. If you happen to have a MLB passport, you can get it stamped at the team store or guest services, where you can also pick up a certificate if its your first visit to the ballpark. I had also downloaded the MLB app which allowed me to check in at the stadium and then play Twingo, which won me a coupon for a free Papa Murphy's pizza. read more

I'm a huge Twins fan and I LOVE Target Field. I've traveled to plenty of other stadium around the country and Target Field is so beautiful and every seat has a great view. I usually don't eat at the game, I recommend going to Cowboy Jacks across the street and getting some appetizers beforehand. Beers are $9 so keep that in mind!! Bathrooms are clean and fans will be nice to you whether you're cheering for the Twins or another team (except the Yankees ;) ) There have been a few Saturdays in the Summer when I don't have plans and a few friends and I will just go downtown and buy cheap tickets for the game. We usually end up walking around during the game and it's always a blast. read more

Target Field - View from Delta Club - Stadiums & Arenas Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

Love Target Field! This is just a nice field for watching baseball. They have standard baseball field food, plus so much more. Red Cow has decent burgers, and then there is the boomstick brat (30 inches of deliciousness). The broomstick can easily be shared among for hungry adults. Pizza Luci has a place here also. There are also ever-changing restaurants at the main gates. I really liked Soul Bowl. They basically have decent food, including gluten free. You will pay more, but isn't that typical at sports events? The team store is really nice and can hold a large crowd. They have a decent selection. There are a few mini team stores located around the field. A great little bonus-is you select the winning runner somewhere around the fifth inning you receive a coupon for a free item from Target! read more

This is a well-run ballpark that is easy to access. Located in the heart of downtown, Target Field is home to the 2014 MLB All-Star game as well as to the 2-time World Champion Minnesota Twins of the American League. Though there seems to always be construction around the parking areas across the street from the ballpark as well as by the skyways, Target Field presents extremely well. The views of the baseball diamond are pretty good, the food is good (love the beer), and tickets are reasonably priced. Be on the lookout for special promotions around the July and August months (for the day games, if necessary) on the Twin's website. Pretty good ballpark, Minneapolis! read more

Target Field - What a gorgeous stadium...not a bad seat in the house! - Stadiums & Arenas Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

See all

My family and I were veterans of games played inside the dingy, utilitarian confines of the Metrodome. And, in my case many games played at the modest but agreeable (for baseball) Metropolitan Stadium. Target Field, long seen as nothing but a pipe dream is somewhat of a miracle. The fact that it stands today is the result of hard work, persistence, vision, serendipity and, at least in part due to the ugly threat of contraction. My son and I attended Target Field's inaugural game held on April 12, 2010 against the Boston Red Sox. Walking up to the ballpark, our excitement grew as the scale and scope of the ballpark became increasingly apparent. Walking through Gate 29 and out to the railing overlooking the pristine, lush green natural grass field, taking in the crowd populating the towering stands, the deep azure sky and smell of hot dogs and popcorn, we felt a sense of giddy wonder. It seemed a bit unreal. As though any moment someone might announce, "Not!" and the curtain would drop to reveal that the Twins had been contracted and we were standing in the middle of a huge parking lot. Anyway, the hometown team made it an auspicious debut by beating the visitors 5 to 2 behind a well-pitched game by Carl Pavano and timely hitting by Joe Mauer, Jason Kubel and Michael Cuddyer. Since then, well... let's just say that on field results have been uneven. But Target Field, voted best sports venue in 2010 by Sports Illustrated has, in my opinion only gotten better. Every year improvements have been made to seating, traffic flow, amenities and food choices. Recently I attended a night game with some buddies. One of them had obtained four free tickets 15 rows up and just to the left of home plate. It was a perfect evening weather-wise. A breeze kept things comfortable and the humidity was low. I still find it cool to see the downtown buildings light up at dusk and Bullseye's neon tail begin to wag. Before the first pitch, I started with a loaded brat from Kramarczuk's. Hard to beat. By the sixth inning (it was a loooong game) I was hungry again. Directly behind us was the 4 Bells stand selling a Shrimp Boil (corn-on-the-cob, red potatoes, and large shrimp along with Butcher & the Boar's Spice Wurst sausage). Be forewarned, the line moves extremely slowly (at least it did that evening). I was tempted to bail a couple of times. However, the nearly twenty minute wait proved worth it. I would buy this dish again in a heartbeat. Honestly, I wished that I'd skipped the brat because I couldn't finish the delicious bowlful of rich, spicy, buttery goodness. This is a very transit friendly destination. I've taken light-rail several times. I've even ridden my bicycle to the park. I'm unhappy that the park-n-ride bus from Minnetonka was discontinued. But, if you choose to drive there are a few bargain surface lots within a reasonable walk if you know where to look. Alas, this night the Twins lost (what else is new). But an evening at the ballpark still offers a great experience. read more

One of the nicest ballparks that I have ever been to. The big screen and views around the park makes it seem like you are watching the game in HD! The light rail takes you right to it and allows you to park elsewhere, be prepared to wait for the light rail after the game though. Of course food is on the expensive side. read more

I've been to a lot of professional ballparks over the years, and Target Field is a really beautiful one. I love parks that are in downtown areas, and for a downtown ballpark, it is easy to get to, easy to find parking and easy to access from all sides. I appreciate greatly that the parking around the ballpark isn't a fortune (still $10 or $15 but compared to some parks...). Because it's downtown, the park is kind of "vertical," if you will. Kind of built up instead of out. But this makes it very intimate and there really isn't a bad spot to be because every seat is pretty close to the infield. The park is well-signed, easy to navigate and generally really fun to visit. I will say that some of the ushers are a little um, overzealous, when it comes to making sure you have a ticket for their section. But other than that, A+ for stadium staff. Shout out to the vendor guys who walk up and down the aisles -- they are awesome. I also really appreciate the concession offerings. There are local brats that are really good, Schweigert hot dogs and some stands that sell Minnesota-brewed beers. We have such a good craft brew scene here that I love to see it highlighted. There is also a better-than-average overall beer selection at this park. I do wish it was a bit easier to figure out where to find all of the awesome concessions in the park. They should print a full guide somewhere easy to access for attendees. But once you know what's being offered, it's pretty easy to sniff out what you want. Would be worth spending a few minutes online looking before you attend if it's your first game. Also, I love that the park has Minnesota musicians visit and play during select games. read more

I love love love coming to Target Field. I have never had a bad experience here and don't expect to ever. There is a variety of different seats at the ballpark, each corresponding to different price levels. I have sat in all of them, and it is as much fun to go to the game right behind home plate as sitting way in the third level. Everything is very clean here. The bathrooms are great, the seating was great, nothing to complain here. The workers are very friendly and helpful. I was blown away by this. On the day that we decided to go, they had free hats available. We had come through the opposite side to get the hats though and they were being given out outside of the stadium. We were directed to a man running the show by gate 6, and he gave us special marks on our tickets that would allow us to go outside and get them and re enter without and issue. Awesome service here. Yes the food is expensive, but you should be expecting this! Yes the burger and fries is $13.50, but you are eating at a ballpark. This should be overlooked because the food is truly not that bad and you are here for an experience. Come checkout Target Field if you haven't! You will keep coming back! Go Twins! read more

Good upgrade from the Metrodome which I went to last year and have a separate review. Positives: * Love the outfield promenade where you can walk and tour the stadium. The right field wall has some interesting metal sculpture like wall that shimmers and is kinda cool. * The scoreboard is old school looking and lights up with Minnie and St. Paul shaking hands for the "Twin Cities" whenever the Twins do something good... like a Homerun. * Definitely a great upgrade to downtown.... light rail accessible, and walkable from downtown businesses. Lots of bars and restaurants surround the stadium... near the other NBA/Hockey venue (Target Center). Good job Twins. * Fans are tremendous supporters of their team and really into baseball. * Oh... and the food options are unique. I tried the Porkchop on a stick from the State Fair area which also had some other cool State Fair type snacks. Negatives: None yet.... but I would imagine a snowy game in April might make for a chilly experience for an out-of-towner like myself read more

This is one of the nicer big league ball parks that I have been to in a long time. It was easy for us to access as well. I parked a few blocks away in downtown Minneapolis and we simply walked the rest of the way. There are lots of vantage points that you can walk to and watch the game from a standing room only area. Expect to pay top dollar for your hot dog and beer, but that's kind of an unfortunate given these days. $9 or $10 for a beer. The game experience was very family friendly as well. Children are often on the stadium cam, announcing the line up, taking a stadium quiz, or in an on-field foot race. So if you got kids, bring'm. read more

First things first... I am not a Twins fan. Go Tigers! Parking in the garage with the attached skywalk to the entrance was the way to go. They have security walking around as well as two exits for ease to pay and leave. That was a breeze! Right by the skywalk you'll notice one of the entrances. The ticket office is directly to the right. The gentleman working there was so pleasant and friendly. He helped us get some great seats for the day of the game. Target Field is beautiful. The grounds are obviously pristine and perfect for a sunny spring day. They have plenty of concessions as well as vendors walking up and down the aisles for an easy food and drink purchase. Baseball games are always a fun time. Seeing the visiting team pull off a huge win was a bonus. Thank you Target Field for your hospitality! read more

I went to The Eagles/Jimmy Buffett concert on June 30, 2018. This was an amazing thing for me due to health reasons that fully developed after purchasing the tickets 8 months before hand. The reason that is relevant is because there was no way that I could walk from the car to my seat. I found Target Field's website where they clearly list their accessibility accommodations. I called to confirm as well. I was able to make it from my car to the accessible gate entrance. Once there, I asked for a wheelchair. Friendly staff picked me up with the chair and brought me to my seat, which was as far from the entrance as it could be. We arrived early but with it being a sold out concert, there were already swarms of people at the concessions meaning a lot of people to try to navigate around. I could not have done any if this. When I was dropped off, staff took my name and seat information so that the chair would be there when I needed it. The concert was awesome! The sound was perfect. It was loud enough to hear the artists over the crowds singing along. The lighting was excellent. This is a true feat since the concert started in daylight but ended in the dark. My seat was in section 219. These seats are accessed by the 5th floor on the elevator or by the escalator. The view was unobstructed except for one stack.of speakers that was mostly see through. We were high up and far away but I would purchase the seats again for musical artists. For baseball these seats would be even better. We were directly over the visitor's dug out. Staff checked on me during the intermission to see if I needed them then and when I wanted to leave. Alex N (or maybe W) picked me up with the chair after the encores. He was delightful! Thank you Target Field! The missing star is because after parking in ramp b one must use a flight of steps to get from the skyway to Target Field. read more

This is my 21st ballpark. Only 9 more to go! Overall, it was a fun evening. The park is conveniently located right in downtown Minneapolis next to the Target Center. We stayed 3 blocks away, but the light rail drops you off right at the field. The staff at Target Field are friendly and helpful. The concourse is wide and offers many food and beverage choices including some great local craft beers. Prices are in line with many other parks. We sat in section 117 row 5. These tickets were very inexpensive on Stubhub. The seats were great. Just behind home plate. Good views of all scoreboards and video screens. Moving up a level may pose obstructed views due to the long overhang of the upper levels. We did not venture into the upper deck. The outfield seats reminded me of Wrigley with their steep slope. There is plenty of standing room all the way around the concourse. I like stadiums where you can see the game when you leave your seat. The stadium seems older than it is. It is in need of a facelift. It does not make my top ten list. Falls somewhere in the 11-15 range of the 21 stadiums I have visited. A big negative is the atmosphere around the park. There are quite a few homeless people in Minneapolis. Being from Chicago, I am used to dealing with this unfortunate part of life. However, these individuals were much more aggressive. On the way out of the park we were followed for a bit by a man with a crazy story and a sleeping bag. He would not stop until I was more firm with my desire for him to leave us alone. It was the 5th time in two days we were approached by a man on the street. Earlier in the day we were at a pub and a man came inside and asked us for some chips we were eating. The bartender intervened and escorted him out, but still... I would stay at a hotel near the light rail and away from downtown if I ever go back to Minneapolis, maybe for a Bears Vikings game! Vikings stadium is one of the stops on the light rail. Have a great time at the park. read more

This is the best ballpark in America and I don't care what anyone says because we're Minnesotan dammit. And we can be a bit braggy. But where else do you get a gorgeous view of downtown, terrible baseball, and expensive beer all in one package? You bet. Right here. But honestly, this is a great ballpark and we're so lucky they stuck this in the warehouse district and totally helped revitalize the North Loop. While the Twins may still suck, there are worse ways to spend a gorgeous Minnesota evening. And the Twins will always have a soft spot in my heart. I'd recommend getting a standing room only ticket and exploring the park. There are tons of cool places to watch the game if you don't mind standing, plus with all the bars around the concourse, it is a great way to ignore how bad the Twins might be playing. Cheers! read more

Game was great, steak sandwich was not good, and trying to get out of a down town ramp is 2 and 1/2 hours. Ridiculous!

My 38th MLB park, including 9 that have been retired. This is a really nice one. You can tell how well planned out it was, including the locations of the Skybridge exit and LRT stations that empty out literally next to gates. I didn't drive in, I chose to walk from one of the downtown hotels, and it couldn't have been easier. Concessions are outstanding, bordering on magnificent. Tons of choices of different kinds of foods as well as beer. The selection is much greater on the lower level than it is in the upper deck. The brats and sausages were pretty terrific, and everything was surprisingly reasonably priced for stadium food. The sightlines are good. There isn't really a bad seat in the house, although you will have a better view of downtown from the third base line than along the first base line. It being Minnesota, there are lots of bars for hanging out and socializing. Most are SRO, others are more like regular bars that have high-top seats. I'm a big baseball fan who comes to watch the game, so I don't mill about while play is going on, but if you were there just to drink and be social, I honestly can't think of a better park to do it in. Every employee I spoke with was polite, helpful and even chatty. The highlight for me was talking with Sue, the Target Field organist. She's one of two in the majors who play in an area accessible by the public. She's in the upper level at Two Ginger's Bar, above home plate. I walked in, introduced myself and before I realized it we talked for about 15 minutes in between bits of music she played (she doesn't play whole songs like they used to have at ballparks in the olden days, which is kind of a shame). Ticket prices are very reasonable while not qualifying as cheap. I got good field level seats on the first base side for about $75. Best place to sit at a sunny day game is behind home or along the third base side, row 30 and back. My only criticism (and it's pretty minor) is that the pre-game time between batting practice and the National Anthem involves a whole lot of yammering from the PA announcer and Twins staff people who are on the field doing promotions and stuff. It's non-stop and gets annoying after a while. A little bit is fine, but you don't have to try to hype a crowd at a baseball game. Play some music or let Sue noodle around on the organ, and the beautiful sounds of the baseball park will set the atmosphere. read more

Probably one of the nicest parks in baseball! While I haven't been to all of them, Target Field doesn't really leave me wanting for much. It seems to be kept clean, the concessions are quick and plentiful, and it's within walking distance of most of downtown Minneapolis. Nice view of the (generic) city skyline, too. My first visit to Minneapolis left me in awe of how many dedicated Twins fans there are... very impressive! I'm all for supporting your local teams - something not as common as it should be in most of the country these days.

The retro classic ballparks, like Oriole Ballpark and AT&T Park that utilize brick and green seats and such, strongly showcase the older, classic ballparks and they are immediately attractive because their designs generate a feeling of history and tradition that baseball is so associated with. Retro modern ballparks, on the other hand, combine aspects of those classic ballparks, but most often feature more modern exteriors. This can often make the stadium feel less intimate and even less directly tied with baseball because walking up to them, they can feel (at parts) like a small football stadium. There are still nice retro modern ballparks and even ones that provide a better look and/or experience than some retro classic ballparks. Petco Park feels big, but it offers great city views from seating and integrates a classic building to give the stadium an urban feel. Target Field is also a retro modern ballpark and it is also a nice one. The exterior is very modern and feels, though I am sure this was not intentional, like a high-end Target (that is not really a knock, the stadium really feels fresh, new and organized). Inside the stadium is nice. The view from stadium seating is decent. You get a little bit of the city skyline and, like Citizen Bank Park, some good decoration in the outfield like the big throwback Twins sign. The stadium has a good atmosphere too with a lively but still polite crowd. Walking around the interior of the stadium is enjoyable and comfortable. The concourses have a good clean look and get a lot of natural light even though they are closed-in like most concourses. The outfield pavilion area is small but seems energetic. There are a few fun things to do in the stadium like promotional games where you might be able to win some small, low value prizes. A local sports booth is located in the concourse so you can see local celebrities (I think it was Kent Hrbek) call the game and maybe even snag an autograph. And the walls are decorated with fun facts (like how Target Field has a reusable water system underneath the stadium) and useful directories (a great directory of all the types of food you can find in the stadium and where you can get them). And the food is good here--one of the best ballparks for food. Their regular concession stands feature your typical selection of hot dogs, popcorn and such. I had a brat at one of these stands and it was one of the better brats I have had from a regular (non-hot grill) concession stand. It was a cheddar bratwurst and it was juicy, had a good snap and was nicely seasoned. The oozing cheddar in the center was reminiscent of those cheddar hot dogs I remember having as a kid. The sesame seed bun did not meld with the bratwurst like Dodger Dogs, but it was soft and fresh. I also tried one of their popular items, the Murray's steak sandwich, which was sirloin steak, caramelized onions and melted provolone on a toasted ciabatta roll. There were problems with the sandwich. The ciabatta was decent bread, but it was a tad too crunchy. The steak was cooked to a well done and the quality was not that great. The caramelized onions and melted provolone were good, but there needed to be more of these garnishes because the sandwich was a tad bland. But with the steak sauce on the sandwich, the sandwich was surprisingly addictive and not that bad. I also tried their chocolate soft serve, which was good. Their chocolate malt from a local dairy (Kemps) was very good. It was incredibly creamy and had a perfect consistency--not melted and also not icy, just very smooth. The malt flavor was not as strong as the malt flavor at United Dairy Farmers (Great American Ballpark), but the chocolate flavor was very satisfying. Staffs at the concession stands were all very good--consistently friendly and polite (probably some of the best service I have received at a ballpark to date). Target Field is a new and nice stadium. Like Petco Park and Great American Ballpark, it provides an attractive stadium with good and interesting views from stadium seating. It also offers fun things to do, good food and nice amenities to make going here a great overall experience and not simply a nice ballpark to look at. I am not sure what the parking situation is, but I imagine they have several pay parking lots nearby in the $10-$20 range. read more

I'm not a big baseball fan...there, I said it. Somehow, I don't feel guilty. But on the plus side, I love love love Target Field. The home of the Twins makes me adore baseball by default. The Twins don't always play the best (hip hip hooray for them making it to the playoffs this year!), but when they do, the stadium lights up and there's nothing better than the roar of the crowd. I prefer night games over games during the day, but you can never complain about a ball game on a beautiful summer day. The open roof gives you the perfect view of the Minneapolis skyline! They have plenty of food vendors, and although the beers are pricey, you can't watch a baseball game without some drinks in your hand. There is no bad seat in the house, so buy any ticket, grab a beer, and kick back. If you need anything, Target Field employees are always friendly and they are the best at taking group pictures for you if you want the field in the background. Bless their hearts. Parking can be a bit of a nightmare depending on the game, but they have a ramp right across the street from Target Field, so I'd recommend going there. Need some merch? They have a store within Target Field that sells all sorts of Twins merchandise. I've gone to plenty of games and have yet to make it on the kiss cam or dance cam (I barely made it on the jumbo screen once because the group behind us was put up on the display). Pucker up, don't be caught sleeping, and show off your moves y'all...Target Field has it all, and it's sure to entertain you! P.S.- Once next baseball season comes around, keep in mind that Thursdays are COLLEGE NIGHT! Show your Student ID, and you can get standing room for only $5! It's a steal of a deal (baseball joke intended)! read more
