About Stadium

An open-air ballpark located in downtown Atlanta, George and serves primarily as home field for Major League Baseball’s Atlanta Braves from the National League East.

The stadium was originally named Centennial Olympic Stadium in 1996 for the ’96 Summer Olympic Games before being named to Turner Field.
