Another wonderful night enjoying a Tides WIN against the Jumbo Shrimp! I was really impressed with the Wicked theme night & having Glinda & Elphaba characters for meet & greet! I was blown away by the fireworks after the game. I was expecting a short few little fireworks, but they put in a whole show! Even better than some 4th of July fireworks I've seen. This stadium has definitely added a bunch more food options! I see LuvaBowls, BBQ, Filipino, pizza, gelato & more! read more

We went to a Sunday afternoon game in spring and it was an absolute blast! Good baseball, great prices, and fabulous concessions, it was perfect for the family! We ended up parking on site because we didn't want the hassle, but, from what I understand, the transportation options are great. The trolley train thing, even walking, I love the location! So close to all the great restaurants for an after game dinner. Speaking of food, the concessions inside the stadium were exceptional. I love, hot pretzels, so their take on a hot pretzel was wholly unexpected and absolutely delicious. Being able to get my young kiddo to go to baseball game where there's just enough fans and just enough action, but not too much and not too overwhelming, it was amazing. Absolutely love the team, and everything that comes with going to a baseball game, especially at a much lower price point than major league. read more

Before I begin let me start off this review by saying this information is based solely upon my personal experiences and my personal experiences alone, so with that being said let's go!!.. I have been here numerous times and each time I am thrilled with the excitement and the atmosphere of the baseball game!. I am not sure if I mentioned this before but for those individuals that are not knowledgeable about baseball : The Norfolk Tides are a Triple- A affiliate of the Baltimore Orioles Major League Baseball team and a member of the Triple-A East League. I try to attend the games as much as possible because of the enjoyment I get from attending baseball games in this area! I am from NYC so I am accustomed to all professional sports, for example baseball teams: NY Yankees NY Mets Basketball Teams : NY Knicks Brooklyn Nets formerly known as the NJ Nets Hockey Teams: NY Rangers NY Islanders on Long Island Buffalo Sabres up in Buffalo NY Last but not least Football Teams: NY Giants NY Jets Buffalo Bills up in Buffalo NY There are no professional teams in this state called Virginia, so the Norfolk Tides are the best they have to offer and I take full advantage!. So with all that being said, Let's go Tides!!.. I would definitely recommend anyone in the area or visiting this area to check out a game. You won't be disappointed!. read more

Norfolk Tides - Admission Tickets... - Professional Sports Teams Near Me - Norfolk, Virginia

The tickets in the front row now have a lovely net that blows into the seats and if you're standing up for the anthem or seventh inning stretch you have to battle it. Front row tickets are no longer worth it. The family pack of hot dogs delivery really weird gray hotdogs that taste like a mouthful of pennies. The nachos come with chips that have been sitting since last season maybe but they are cardboard crunchy if you can imagine. The smell coming over the bay every three minutes is a pleasant mix of sewage and fuel. What an experience. The Tides park is quickly declining year over year in the customer service and experience department. read more

Sunshine and baseball, baby! What can be better than that!! The Tides are on the field, and I have a soft pretzel, a veggie dog and a cold brew...today is a good day! read more

We like to go to one or two games a year. We enjoy it though neither of us from here originally and the majors they are associated with is the Orioles and not either of our teams. They do try to keep it lively. They have short games and a couple mascots and play music and do the cams etc continually throughout to keep it interested. The costumes could use some refreshing those burgers and bacon etc looking well worn. The players could be friendlier. They're miserable looking last two times we went; I didn't see them signing for the kids or anything. The stadium itself has a lot of food options but stereo typical stuff. I'd love for once in my life to have an unsweet tea or no sugar lemonade? Is that too much to ask? Some of us are diabetic. And I can't drink soda either because of a hiatal hernia surgery. So I'd love to see something a bit more healthy at least at one stand? The little restaurant is ok. We usually go there. You really need to make a reservation though. I like it when they have a snow globe or something for the kids... That's about it. Like the stadium (parking I hope is getting better now) and just want the players to be a bit nicer. read more

We have a minor league baseball team right in our city! What better way to spend summer days and nights than watching the Tides? We went for Father's Day and it was perfect weather. Tickets are about $17 and there are no bad seats. We upgraded our seats ($6 more) day of the game to a 4 seat table. IT WAS WORTH IT! The drinks, food, and occasional balls flying for you to catch is a great way to spend the day! Cannot wait to go back for my birthday when they have FIREWORKS and Bark-in-the-park (Dog Day)! read more

Just attended a Tides Fanfest event co-sponsored by Food Lion. Experience was a HOMERUN. My boys and I took batting practice, both onfield (x2) and in the Tides cages underneath Harbor Park. Sweet right? Boys fielded and shagged balls during other participant's AB's. Made our way to pitching machine and tested the velocity of our fast balls; 11yo = 42mph, 9yo = 44mph, me = 52mph. Had first "shot" buying brand new Norfolk Coffee merch in the Tides' team store; also left with some free Food Lion swag: chip clips, $5 coupons, string bags, and a manual fan (that broke in under 2min). Met 3 mascots: Triton, RipTide and Lion (Food Lion); hope they were paid OT bc it was a scorcher. Face painting services and balloons were also being given away free. Thank you Tides and Food Lion for letting kids and adults feel like legit minor leaguers! read more

You can't beat $2 beers at the park on a Tuesday . A little bit of a line, but hey we are out having fun. Nice chants from the crowd and plenty of open seats. Just an enjoyable time and staff is friendly to answer any questions read more

Incredible night at the Norfolk Tides Park. This is a beautiful AAA baseball park for the Baltimore Orioles. They were celebrating four inductees to the Harbor Park Shrine tonight. Beautiful sights, great food. Everyone is super friendly. Definitely a have to go destination if you are visiting Our area. read more

Gwinett Braves at Norfolk Tides, during the regular season. The Tides played quite well, only committing two errors (the Braves had one) and leaving several men on base. But they managed to eke out a win anyway. The Tides are a farm team for the Baltimore Orioles. Nice ballpark with good seating. While there was a good law enforcement presence at the gates and on the field after the game, there was not much for security otherwise. GO TIDES! read more

Norfolk Tides - Norfolk Tides at Harbor Park - Professional Sports Teams Near Me - Norfolk, Virginia

The 2014 home season in Norfolk has now ended. When I heard this Tide's pitcher was LIGHTS OUT I thought that was his pitching. Well read on and you will find out what happen. The Tides are a AAA professional team that is affiliated with the Baltimore Orioles. This is a change over the past five years, I can't recall what pro team they were connected with. They are located just off the water in Harbor Park which is off 264 in Norfolk Access in and out is pretty good. Use of the Tide light rail is a great way to go too. It appears the Norfolk Tides are great community partners. I see their involvement in various things around Hampton Roads. If you go to a game you see different groups mentioned, or brought out on the field. This is of course important for the teams public relations profile. They are a business after all. With regards to the product they put out on the field I cannot speak to this much. I attended a few games a season at best. However every game I attend they seem to loose. This season they again have a loosing record and appear out of the running for post season play. For the price, around $15 tops for box seats you can't beat it. Parking is a reasonable $5 too, or catch the Tide it stops right in front of the park. They allow you to bring in a bag and you may want to stow away a few bottles of water, especially for a day game. Also don't forget a sharpie for balls to be signed and a mitt to catch stray balls. Concession lines is what looses a star for me. Last night they were probably 85% capacity for their final home game. Most every single vendor had excessive lines that almost closed off the corridor to walk... can you say FIRE HAZARD! Also keep in mind many of the vendors take cash only. On the bright side while you are waiting in line you will enjoy the smell of the most intoxicating food in your life. The offerings are substantial. There is an ATM, but advice is bring at least $50 for a family of four. It ended up being premature suspended game after the light center field bank of light went out. Around 45 min went by before an announcement that the game would be suspended and continued in Durham today. Tides were leading 4-1. Ticket holders booed, but calmed down that tix would be honored for an April Tides game. The fans cheered as they were told by the announcer fireworks scheduled would start immediately. The fireworks show went on for 15 minutes behind the scoreboard and were fantastic with the parks lights turned off. I would say the show is one of the best I have ever seen, they were so close! The location and price make this a great family offering. I hope to get back in the Spring with the family and see a Tides win. read more

It was a super great night for baseball!! The weather was perfect and the price for food (certain items) was just right!! The Norfolk Tides I believe are in first place right now, so the time is right more than ever before to cheer them on!! And for that reason, we ventured here the past Monday night for "turn the clock back" night. This was the second feature this season where hot dogs, sodas, and popcorn were sold at the amazing price of $.50. And boy did we take advantage of this offer. For less than $10.00 we fed a family of 4!! The game time, 7:05 pm, and we arrived at 6:15 pm (with tickets in hand). I did notice a crazy line out front and around the side at the box offices. But I was one step ahead, I came to the box office at 2pm to secure tickets for the game. So yes, go early to purchase or trade in tickets to avoid the long lines. And because I did so earlier, we walked up with no wait to enter the field. Because we arrived this early, there was only a 5 minute wait or less to purchase food. This is fantastic!! Because about 8pm...the wait in line is easily 20 minutes or more!! And this is all because of the special event night. Usually you can get food pretty quickly on any given night. But come on...$.50 deals, yeah, I'd wait in line 20 mins too!! And the hotdogs and popcorn was yummy!! The field and stadium itself is goregous. The field and stadium is always clean...but after a game, yeah they have their work cut out for them!! The restrooms are kept tidy as well! Therefore, if you enjoy the great outdoors and baseball or just want to do something different, this is a fun experience for all. Wholesome family fun is how I see it or maybe even a date night!! Certain games feature a different special event. If you love fireworks catch them after the game! It's a beautiful display over the river! Upon purchasing tickets you can choose you seat, so be mindful of the seating chart near the box office. I prefer the 3rd base line because we always get a foul ball or two. But this last time we were able to get 4!!!! How awesome!! Have fun :) read more

Always a great time. Good clean fun. Lots of food choices. Lots of parking. They have handicapped seating (call to buy those). Various ways to get to the park- ride the tide. Take the portsmouth ferry. Drive and park $6. We are the AAA of the Baltimore Orioles. Enjoy a snack and support your local homegrown team. Its a great blessing to have this place. The Tides are a great team. We won 4-0 last night against Charlotte Knights. Fireworks post game too! read more

This is a really nice ball park. The seats are very comfortable. The back and bottom are curved to fit an average American. The seats kind of contour to your form. The seating is easily navigable. The sections are labeled above your head and the rows are lettered on the outside of the isles. There are a TON of food and beverage options. Pretzels, popcorn, peanuts, so many different hotdog choices from Mac & cheese to lobster meat and pulled pork. It's crazy. Most of the stands that have food pits take cards. Some of the little trucks only take cash. They also have dip N dots, waffle cones, cotton candy, snow cones and so much more. The beer selection is AWESOME! They have a ton of beers that are brewed in VA like Devil's Back Bone, YVBC, O'connner's, smart mouth, goose island and some of them are on tap or bottled. I went with a nice El Guapo by O'connner's. Our baseball team isn't the best but that's okay we had fun watching 12 innings of zero to zero for almost 4 hours until FINALLY the Tides got a run and we all went home. Only down side is they stop selling beer at like 9-915pm (8th inning) and we were there on the 11th inning around 1030-1045 so I was quite thirsty at the end. All in all a good time. $12 tickets you can't beat that. read more

I like coming to Watch the Norfolk Tides. I don't like watching baseball on TV, but I enjoy going to games. At the stadium, there is so much going on around you. It makes watching the game a better experience. The seating isn't bad, and the stadium is kept clean. I usually enjoy a fried Twinkie or Snickers. The prices are high as expected, so expect to pay a lot for a complete meal. The alcoholic drinks are too expensive and aren't worth the price. Tonight I walked past a beer stand that had "premium beer" for $10.75. read more

Great fun for the family, date or company night out. The concession stand food is really good and not over priced like some big attraction places. The restaurant they have at the park is awesome. But the thing I liked most was the private lounges for parties and companies. I had a great time in the sky box suite watching the game on the comfortable couch in is like a mini apartment. Had a ball !!! read more

So we went last Friday. Spur of the moment to the tides game. Don't go Humphrey because it can get pricy. They have Mexican. Nachos are huge. Unit pizza. Plenty of hot dogs and of course beers. Tix are 14$ for great seats. This is a bargain. We had a blast. Unfortunately no fireworks. Which is an added bonus. Pawtucket Red Sox. Seeing that I am from bean town the nite could not have been bettah. Usually root for tides though. U can not beat AAA baseball. Go and have a ball. read more

It is sad that more people don't attend the games. It is a great time, the food is great, and also 2 Dolla PBR's. Eat some peanuts and grab a bite of cheese pizza from YNot. Good time spent with family. This night they won, two home runs, and many great plays. Spend time with the Tides and your family. read more

Spur of the moment adventure with my bestie & a few of our babies! My cousin was able 2 get these tickets free from her job! Thanx girl! I'm sure some woulda said we had great seats...2nd row from the front! However...i was SCARED! We were toooooo close 2 the field...i was afraid we would get hit with a ball #DontJudgeMe! After a while, that no longer bothered me! The food was heavenly! Hot dogs, pizza, fries, funnel cakes, cotton candy!!!! I felt like a kid again! There was a rowdy bunch sitting behind us...that were plucking my nerves...1 too many beers I suppose. After a while, i learned to tune them out, or risk letting them ruin my nite! The weather??? Well, it was really nice when we left home...but once the sun began to set...it got chilly! Really chilly! Thsnk gawd for blankies & jackets! Had a fantastic time! Look forward to the next one! read more

Click on http://www.milb.com/index.jsp?sid=t568 pay $15.00 a ticket and just go. We have been to several bigger team games but this was just FUN. Of course the prices for dogs and beer are high, they are at any sporting event, it's a given. What makes the Tides games so good is the small events between innings. Today two people raced using lawn blowers to move basketballs in a race. Another was kids tossing toilet plungers over their backs hoping their teammate would catch it in a washing bin. It just keep going. Get off your sofas and get some fresh air. Take the light rail.....it brings you to the third base entrance. read more

Its the great American pasttime and Harbor Park is a great place to see it... and for not much money. One of the best small parks in the minor leagues, its provides great views and good ballpark eats. The buffet restaurant Hits at the Park isn't bad either and rotates the menu items nightly to keep things interesting. Plenty of parking is available. The HRT Tide light rail has a stop near the 3rd base box office and HRT's ferry service stops at a dock during games. read more

This was my second time here. This was my third game in my Birdland Passport baseball road trip. It is a nice place to see a game. It was day game and it was very hot and sunny. Since the park is right next to the water, you get a nice breeze off the water. The folks that work the game are friendly and helpful. They have a good selection of beer, granted it was "that hot" and I did not drink any beer due to not wanting to pass-out. So, I instead enjoyed their fine selection of non-alcoholic beverages to keep cool and refreshed. read more

Norfolk Tides - View from my seat, Section: 108 Row: G Seat: 2. - Professional Sports Teams Near Me - Norfolk, Virginia

Went to OPENING DAY for the NORFOLK TIDES and had an awesome time! Wish the price for food was cheaper sheeesh! :)

So disappointed that the Tides didn't honor their ticket obligations! My original game was rained out and they gave me a new game date. They didn't tell me that the box seat tickets I paid for were no longer going to be honored and I'd be up, literaly, in the last row, nose bleed section. $20+ tickets down to $11 seats, no refunds, no apologies. No communication.Ticket office was pretty rude and uncaring when I tried, politely, to resolve the problem. Not sure I'll be wanting to come back! read more
