View from our seats behind home plate. I recommend these seats because they are in the shade throughout the entire game.

It's always fun to go to a Rainiers game. You get to see some great talent and some guys working hard to make their dreams come true. It's a beautiful stadium and well maintained. Got there about an hour before game time and was able to secure parking. I noticed later that the parking lot all filled up rather quickly. This was for a Sunday game, so it was a large crowd. One tip that you may want to keep in mind... If you are going to a day game during the summer and don't wanna sit in full sun, try to find seats behind home plate. The first and third base sides of the field were in full sun for most of the game. Lots of different concessions and they had a large number of staff working each one to keep the crowd moving along. I tried Farrelli's pizza and it was great. Huge piece of pizza! Restrooms were kept clean throughout the game and plenty of security on hand to ensure that all patrons felt safe. All in all, this was a great afternoon and a great experience. I look forward to my next visit.

Such a fun stadium to watch a game? Employees are friendly and helpful and kind. Several went out of their way to speak to our grandson and make him feel Welcome and comfortable in the crowd. One complaint: the spectators to leave their trash and half-eaten meals on other chairs for people to dispose of for them. We had to clean our 3 chairs of trash before we could sit in them. Come to find out the trash was from the children of the parents sitting at the end of our row. They didn't even offer to clean up after their children. Fortunately, at the end of the game, the announcer asked everyone to recycle and toss trash, so I am hopeful that helped. Again, stadium staff are stellar and excitement filled the air! Enjoy!

Love this stadium. Well manicured, lots to do for the kids, super promotions, acceptable food, friendly players. I love MiLB parks.

First time at Cheney a stadium. Parking situation could be crazy so plan accordingly. Smaller stadium for sure. They had great music during the game. We ate garlic friends and both a regular hot dog and a best hotdog. We order a soda and two beers. We purchased beer cozies and a hat. We had a sunny seat in section P but it was a beautiful day. Seats are small so it much wiggle room, and they do have cup holders in the seat.

Cheney stadium is one of the coolest spots in Tacoma. The stadium is big enough that you get the energy from being in a packed stadium but also small enough that pretty much no matter where you sit you are right by the action. You can walk up and purchase tickets same day for most games, but I would recommend buying in advance for weekend games. Tickets vary in price depending on the day of the week but usually it will be under 30$ and that's for a great seat, they have general admission to a grassy hill that you can throw a blanket on to watch and it's under 10$ (I recommend this for people with small kids because it's right next to the play area. The amenities include several food stalls, several beer stalls, a full bar, a team merchandise store, a kids play area with jungle gym, a waffle ball field for the kids and probably some other things I'm missing. This is a relatively cheap way to spend an afternoon and it's so much fun!

Core & Main summer work outing. Great food: ribs, burgers hot dogs side salads and drinks! Excited to watch the Rainiers play the Sac Wildcats. Fun summer evening! Parking is atrocious... we had a GA pass and no parking was available 15 min before the game. Why is that' a thing? Our company paid for passes and we couldn't get a spot. Shouldn't be selling out of parking passes if there's not enough spots for everyone

This was our first time at Cheney Stadium and first Rainiers game as well. My wife and I had never been but now we'd love to return as this place is pretty special. It is small compared to the Mariners' home field but it makes up a lot in accessibility and pricing. The traffic coming into the game was pretty bad and they could've used the police to direct traffic (they had the traffic police after the game but not before), but once we got into the parking lot, everything else was good. The seats were pretty nice as we were inside the 3rd baseline and had a commanding view. We walked around the stadium concourse to see what was offered and there were a lot of staff to help out and answer questions and a decent variety of food options including Ivars, Farrelli's Pizza, BBQ, Carnival Food and other options I probably missed. There was also a nice team store with loads of Rainier merch. I bought a bag o' peanuts and a Heidelberg beer. The Rainiers seem to offer a deal on every home game with themes like Seltzer Saturday, Farrelli's Pizza Family Four Pack offer and Bring the Herd among other specials. Each individual deal has a reserved seat, an exclusive hat or t-shirt, hot dog meal and a featured branded food or drink (e.g. Chik-Fil-A). Overall, we had a lot of fun here and will return again!

Great stadium in Tacoma for the Rainers! The stadium is always clean and offers beautiful views of Mt Rainer (on a clear day). Food options are a bit limited for vegan/vegetarian options, but it still has a good variety.

First, on-site parking is $10 with Visa and Mastercard; AmEx isn't accepted. I was there about an hour and thirty minutes before the game. I didn't have a ticket, so I wanted to arrive early to get a ticket for a good seat. However, I was unaware you must go through security to reach the ticket window. No joke. The ticket booth/trailer is fenced off, and a fence door has a keypad only meant for employees. So, I asked someone working security, "Excuse me, do I have to wait in line just to get a ticket? Also, I'm Deaf, so please face me when answering; thanks." She replied, "Yes, stand in that line," pointing to the growing line to enter the stadium. I can't imagine the team having a promotion (e.g., hat giveaway, bobblehead, etc.) missing out because you have to stand in a line before making it to the ticket window. Most of those giveaways are sold out, so the only option is to get a ticket online; still, I've been to over thirty-three ballparks, and this is the first time I have encountered this issue. Next, the team store is typical for a Triple-A baseball club. The prices were manageable, and they had a good selection of hats, shirts, and other items. I had eaten right before arriving at the ballpark. Although it smelled and looked pretty good, I didn't get any food. Also, they have a lot of steps at this ballpark. I don't know if there was a better entrance with fewer steps, but it took a toll as the night went on. I would come again and be better prepared the next time.

I literally scooped ketchup off drip pan underneath just to get something to go with the fries.

First the runaround to get the bonuses that came with the package deal I ended up paying 87 dollars for 4 of us to watch a game was a hassle. But then even more more annoying to find out it comes with these measly little hotdogs. I was under the impression since it was called a Farelli's pizza family fun pack, that we'd be getting a slice of pizza with our ticket. My bad to assume such a thing but no where online did it mention that. I would've been more ok with it if we were able to bring our own snacks in, but nope they don't allow any outside food or drink which makes it nearly IMPOSSIBLE to afford and fully enjoy going to a game!! It seemed like one of us was constantly getting up to get more overpriced food or drinks at the concession stand, missing the game. What happened to the guys that would walk up and down in the stands selling stuff? Then to top it off the condiments were ALL out by the 5th inning and the whole condiment area was a disgusting mess! Definitely not impressed with Cheney stadium.

Enjoying kicking back and waiting for the game to start.

I have been wanting to go to Cheney Stadium almost since I first moved to Tacoma. It is indeed geared for sports but there are other types of events as well from time to time. Cheney Stadium often made it's presence known over the years with it's fireworks shows and you can hear them neighborhoods away in the city. I finally made it here a few weeks ago for a Team Building event and could finally scratch the stadium off my list. We went here for a baseball game. Truth be told sports aren't where my primary interests lie (insert emoji with a nervous smile and sweat running down forehead) but the event was good to socialize even though I had wasn't doing a good job keeping track as to who was winning. We reserved the lounge there and watched the game along with hot dogs, hamburgers and sandwiches. The lounge was a great choice for the team building event even though there was a little hassle with the ticketing in order to get in. Parking was neat and orderly going in but was difficult to get out after the game with all of the congestion and people were hopping curbs and cutting corners any way they could in order to leave and get to the single exit for most of the traffic. That's kind of a thing I discovered this year with major or larger venues in the Seattle metro area. Smooth going in but very tedious getting out.

Beautiful ball park to catch a sunny afternoon Rainiers Game! The seats behind home plate were nice and cool in the shade, and such a great spot for our large group. Lots of concession stands available, a nice list of craft beers on tap or in cans, and a Team Store to pick up some Rainiers gear.

Ask the Community - Cheney Stadium

Seats in section M, front row, have a note "restricted legroom". So how bad is it? is it 3 inches less than a regular seat or more than 3".? for regular size people, is it uncomfortable?

It was pretty tight, and I'm only 5'10". We actually ended moving up for more space.

I know, it's the only one, but sersiously after the remodel it is a pretty grand experience for minor league ball.

The Tacoma Dome is a large multipurpose arena in downtown Tacoma that handles events at scale in a…read moreway that larger, more modern venues sometimes fail to do. I walked into a space where the dome format gives the building a distinctive character that sets it apart from the standard rectangular arena. For a concert, the circular layout meant sightlines were generally workable from most positions in the building. I saw TWICE here, and the show was the kind of performance that fills a space like this in the right way. The production was large enough to justify the venue size, and the floor area in particular delivered the energy that a show like this builds toward. The acoustics in the dome held up better than the building's age might suggest, and the sound carried clearly enough that the vocal and instrumental mix came through without the muddiness that dome venues can sometimes produce. Getting into the venue moved at a reasonable pace even with a full house. Security was present and effective without being intrusive, and the entry process at a sold out show was more organized than I expected. The concession variety was solid and the food lines, while long during peak windows like opener breaks, moved steadily enough. Seating on the upper levels had a comfort issue for taller people, with the sightline angles and seat spacing working better for average height than for anyone over six feet. The main screen visibility also dropped off depending on my position relative to center, so seats closer to the floor or directly facing the stage tend to offer a more complete visual experience. Transit access is one of the practical strengths of the venue, with bus and light rail connections close enough that driving and parking is optional rather than necessary. For a large arena show in the Pacific Northwest, the Tacoma Dome remains one of the more reliable options in the region.

It kinda felt like I was in a big gym. Our seats weren't that great or expensive but we had a great view of the stage and we did not feel like we were that far away. Seats were fairly comfortable too. The parking situation is a bit of a mess and it's a horrible place to drive to and back. There is no easy way to get there. You will be dealing with horrible traffic and there will be lots of constructions going on in the summer time. If my favorite artists decide to perform here in the future, I would not hesitate to come back but Tacoma dome is definitely not my favorite venue for events.

This was The 4Th Annual Tacoma Craft Beer Festival at the 21st Street Park on the Foss Waterway. It…read morefeathered over 50 breweries from allover. The festival was on Labor Day weekend this year which gave it more of an issue to compete with other happenings on the long holiday weekend. As an avid beer nerd there are several things I look for in these types of events, one is is it at a place that is easy to get to and has plenty of parking and then inside has plenty of places to sit. The next is the level of literature about the beers and the breweries featured. And third the "extras" like food and entertainment. Tacoma Craft Beer Festival is at a nice park next to the Foss Waterway which has a major road that goes overhead creating a large shaded area to sit under and that creates an area for the food vendors and honey buckets to be placed. Most all of the breweries are under there own tents and are spread out among the park with almost all on the grass. The stage for the bands was placed a little further away to have more an area for people to listen and not be in other people's way. They had a good list of breweries from all over, local, national and the world. My only real complaint for this year is they did have a map of where all the breweries were in the park, they did not have a list of what each brewery was serving, (This is something every other festival does.) All in all a good summer day spent drinking a lot of good beer.

I believe this is the same festival as before, it having moved into Cheney Stadium since the…read moreprevious year presumably to handle a bigger crowd. Cost was alright, $30 for 10 tastes was fairly reasonable, my only real complaint here was the additional $10 parking fee, which I felt should have been included. Beer selection was great, and we all found a new favorite from a local brewery none of us had never heard of (real ginger ale at 11% FTW). Crowd was good and setting was pretty mellow, though it might have picked up later (we left around 5). There was live music for most of the day, but they were having some issues there. First off, of the 3 bands, one was okay, one was terrible and the last seemed to be having some serious technical problems. It didn't help that the sound system was also horrible, everything sounding tinny and piercing. Logisitics also did not seem that good, it seeming to take quite awhile to swap out bands. Seeing the question about dancing below? It might have helped to lay down a temporary dance floor assuming there eventually were danceable bands playing.

Alan is more a host than a front man, ready to share his vast knowledge and stories to entertain as well as educate and introduce people to the world of little cars. and of course parts and accessories and cars are available for purchase. If you never have you really should. if you did you will. if you do you know: race what you like, like what you race, but above all it's supposed to be fun :-) guess I'm gonna buy at least one car when I come back.
