About Stadium

A multi=purpose venue located in downtown San Diego, Petco Park serves as the home field for Major League Baseball’s San Diego Padres.

The venue is equally busy hosting other events outside of baseball, such as concerts, football games, golf, and even some rugby matches.

The Padres previously played at Jack Murphy Stadium but moved to their new home to open the 2004 MLB season.

The park is situated between 7th and 10th Avenues in downtown San Diego, and also was constructed right next to the light rail tracks which makes traveling to and from games easy for patrons.
