Spring is here and summer is coming, and this time of year is all about baseball. Our Houston Astros are set for another red hot season, and visiting Daikin Park is a must-do on your summer bucket list. Grab your tickets and your best orange and blue – there is so much to do at the ball field!
Get There Early
If you’re an early bird, you can get the best parking at reasonable prices. Our favorite lots are along Preston – the closer you get to Daikin Park, the more you will pay. Once parked, head on in and be one of the lucky fans to receive that game’s promotions. Bobble heads and replica rings are always a favorite.
Getting there early also means watching our boys practice. Head on down to the field on the home side. You can see batting practice, and you might just get lucky with an autograph. Early fans also have time to cruise around our stadium for fun photo ops like the mural at home plate.
Any Seat is a Good Seat
When purchasing tickets, know any seat is going to get you great views. We recently sat in the 400s on the third base side and loved seeing some bombs! We also love the 300s on the first base side because it’s easy access to the Michelob Ultra Club where the parents can grab a quick beer.
Go Ahead Entry
Since 2024, Astros fans (over 18) have the option of using Go Ahead Entry on the MLB Ballpark App. This is advanced facial recognition technology which will make gaining entry into Daikin Park faster and hands-free! This option is simple and quick to set up and is a huge win for fans!
Buy Me Some Peanuts and Cracker Jacks
You and your crew will not go hungry while watching the ‘Stros win the big game. Daikin Park has limitless options when it comes to concessions. Wings at Pluckers. A burger at Whataburger. House Smoked Pastrami. A margarita from El Tiempo. Everyone will leave full after the game ends.
Shop ‘Til You Drop
Daikin Park has team stores on all levels for you to grab some merchandise. Or, if you want to get some goodies ahead of time, there are small shops that provide unique tees and other accessories for the biggest Astros fans. Check out State Line Designs or Apollo HOU before you hit the field.
Spring is here, and the Astros are revving up for another amazing season. Plan a Sunday Funday with an early game or hit up one on Friday and stay for the Friday fireworks. No matter when you go, attending an Astros game should definitely be in your summer plans.
Go Astros!
