This is a lot of fun for not a lot of money! If major league games are too costly or too far to go, consider your hometown team! The stadium is a manageable size so it's not far to walk from your car to your seat (or your seat to food). Fun theme nights (we went on Star Wars Night). Fireworks including a couple of Mega fireworks shows per year! Not to mention an enjoyable game! The one we saw was very close! Food here was also very good, from the Atomic Pork Chop sandwich to the Fritosaurus Walking Taco to Ben & Jerry's in a mini Cougars helmet! Overall, a fun summer night out in the burbs for sports fans! read more

Family friendly fun at value pricing is still available here. We saw Haley Mae Campbell in the Music Garden prior to the ballgame. Tyler performed balancing tricks on the infield along with audience participation games between innings. The Cougars lost (not affiliated with MLB anymore) but the fireworks post game were great. Food is mediocre and you have to pay $10 to park. Tip: Thirsty Thursday is $2 beers, hot dogs and soft drinks. Buy your tickets online in advance on holidays like Valentine's day and St Patrick's day for great ticket package prices. read more

After thinking more about our experience attending a recent game against the Sioux City Explorers, we decided to send this concern. Last night was the most disappointing game I ever attended. From the lack of preparedness of the staff we encountered to the chaos in the area we sat. The first staff encounter was with parking, one attendant taking cash/cards for parking. No direction in parking area, including no visible signs. We parked in the preferred area. Second encounter with lack of staff was outside the gate in right field. Line towards gate was long, at least that is what we thought as we moved forward, only to learn that we were in the wrong place, it was a line to pick up tickets for a group. Again no clear information or staff assisting fans. We needed tickets from the box office window, which when we learned that we were in the wrong place, walked right up with our vouchers. The person who was working the window, had to keep asking the person next to him how to enter the vouchers. Finally in the stadium, we walked to our seats and settled in on the left field reserved area, section 115, row R, 12-13. The seats were fine. As the game got underway, that is when the area was, well, a bit chaotic. Being teachers we expect the younger fans to have fun and cheer, however, they were walking all over the seating area, kicking the backrests, and roaming everywhere. Now one would expect parents to actually parent, however, they were not. In one case they encouraged their young people to keep going. Before you say "why didn't we get an usher or stadium personnel, there were none in sight or near the area. As we reviewed the website we learned that we could have left our seats, walked to customer service hoping that something would be done. The last concern involves unprepared concession stand: simple order, popcorn and a grilled chicken sandwich. Well, had to wait for popcorn because they did not have any upfront, it was the second inning, and had to wait 10 minutes for grilled chicken sandwich. I believe the girl at the register forgot I had ordered one. Eventually got the sandwich and it was disappointing. With the wait I had I would have expected a hot sandwich, instead it was luke warm and the bun bottom was soggy at best. Having been a season ticket holder when the team first started and as we had kids, we kept some kind of package to keep attending games and enjoy as a family. I only mention this because I know that the Cougars Organization can do better! My hope is that I eventually hear back from someone soon. read more

We've been at least five games now and each one is better than the last! The food is good, a little pricey but it is fine. The kids area is great to entertain before the game. Crowds are great! Awesome team, super friendly players! We love having the field so close! Go Cougars! read more

I just left a Kane County Cougars Game and i have no issue about the game or the park itself. What i did have a problem was the theme of the game. The theme was meet Bluey and Bingo anyone with small kids know who they are. took my 5yr old Grand son and he was super excited to see Bluey and Bingo but if you wanted to see them you had to wait in line to get to see them you didn't know it was going on unless you walked all the way down the third base line. i think if they would have looked at all the small kids that were in the stands they could have had them at least on the field so all the kids could see that they really existed at the game. they could have had some interaction with the fans especially the small fans. read more

Great family entertainment. Ticket prices are affordable. Plenty of parking even tho they charge 10.00 which is too much. Kids play area in right field. Thursday is 2.00 beer and hotdogs. Lots of food options..bbq..tacos..pizza plus your regular ballpark food. Fireworks show after some games is fantastic. Fun in the Western burbs. read more

My parents won the trip to Sweden during Swedish Days. The travel planner was awful and they ended up returning the trip to the cougars. The cougars emailed my parents and said they would be contacting them to make it right. The cougars never contacted them again. Extremely disappointed in the organization for giving a trip that was impossible to plan and they didn't care. read more

BEER LEAGUERS Minor league baseball rules in Kane County, thanks to the brilliant promotion of discount booze. After finding out that Nichole C was gifted a pair of tickets to a Cougars game, I checked the schedule and immediately saw that all Thursday home games featured $1 beers. I'll take "things I've obviously waited for my entire life" for 200, Alex. Though they're currently affiliated with the Arizona Diamondbacks, the Kane County Cougars have previously had links to the Miami Marlins ('93-'02), Oakland A's ('03-'10), and Cubs ('13-'14). They call Northwestern Medicine Field their home, located off of Kirk Rd and Roosevelt. I don't remember the outcome of the game on 6/6/19, nor do I care. Both teams played like.....well, like minor leaguers. Lots of walks, errors, just fairly sh*tty baseball all around. After beer #7 I was strongly tempted to take the field for a pitching change, but my then-girlfriend wisely held me back. Bailing me out of The Clink was not on her agenda. Lines got CUH-RAZY long, since everyone 21+ wanted a piece of the $1 beer action. Concessions were way slower than anticipated. I spent a ridiculous amount of time waiting in line for cheap beer in small plastic cups (limit 2 per person). Food was priced fairly for a minor league ballpark, a corndog & fries was $6. Not all seats have cupholders, so be aware. Field dimensions are almost identical to those seen in the Majors: 335ft down the left and right field lines, 400ft in straightaway center, and 375ft in the L-R power alleys. There's always fun promotions like fireworks going on, the stadium is very kid-friendly, and bringing a family is very affordable. While most others single-'A' parks seat anywhere from 4,000-8,000, the Cougars play in a venue that can hold up to 11,000 people, the most of ANY stadium in the league! It should come as no surprise that NW Medicine Field routinely ranks among the highest attendance in 'A' ball. * TL;DR * Someone working in the Cougars marketing department is the hero the world needs but doesn't deserve. $1 beers is a fantastic idea to get people through the turnstiles, I just wish they'd remove the limitations ("buy as many beers as you can carry" would be more suitable). I had a great time with my girl on what would've otherwise been an uneventful Thursday in June. Fun times for cheap, even if the team on the field isn't bound for the playoffs. Definitely give the Cougars a shot......and go on a Thursday, obviously. read more

Family friendly fun, affordable, class A minor league baseball, parking and food not memorable.

This is a fantastic ballpark to catch a game at. Parking is ample and free, and they often have police directing traffic when the game is over, easing flow back out on to the main road. I've had seats behind home plate, 3rd base line, 1st base line, grass seating, and Leinie's right field bar area. All seats have fantastic views of the field, so you cant go wrong where you choose to buy tickets at. Food prices aren't horrible, neither is the beer. Make sure you stay for the fireworks if they're scheduled for the night, they put on a great display! read more

One of THE best in minor league baseball. So much fun for the whole family and you might even catch a baseball game here too. Lol. They keep it going every inning and concessions are top notch too. Attended many a game here and my company sponsored them at one time as well. Highly recommended fun for all! read more

This ballpark is fantastic! The games are already fun- because baseball is fun! But the employees are all super helpful, the ticket prices are reasonable (helpful when you have kids), there are a variety of seating options available, and the food is all priced reasonably as well. I recommend coming for a themed night- we've gone on both Harry Potter and Princess days and both are super fun. read more

I've been here a few times, usually for a company sponsored event in the upper deck. The hot dogs are good and the beer is alright. I don't find the Kane County Cougar games to be exciting, but it's something to watch as I enjoy ballpark food. The vendors do make a visit in the upper deck and the kids seem to like their merchandise, especially the lightsaber. There's often fireworks at the end of the game, too! Fun fact: 3 of the Cubs World Series players,Kyle Schwarber, Willson Contreras and Albert Almora Jr., were former Kane County Cougars! read more

Baseball and summer are synonymous in my life and since I live out in The Kane, the Cougars fill that need for me. First off, there isn't a bad seat in the house. Even if you sit in the grass you can have a good and comfortable time. Ticket prices are still decent and if you scout out Living Social in early spring they run an offer of 10 tickets for $50..a deal you just can't beat. The schedule itself is very flexible with day, early evening and weekend games. We like the evening games because they start a tad earlier at 6:30, getting you out a little earlier. Some weekdays like Thirsty Thursdays offer $1 beers, others offer $1 hot dogs/sodas. We often go as a family but I also like taking my son over who's six yrs old and just learning the game. Every seat in the house puts you right on top of the field..it's pretty intimate. I also like the fact that my son gets a close-up view so he can learn more about the game. This is minor league baseball so every half inning offers a different on-field gimmick. Most are amusing and keep the crowd involved. The Cougars are also good about scheduling various theme nights and guest appearances. Check their schedule for the various things they offer. Aside from the game there's a couple of traditions that we really enjoy: the post game fireworks and running the bases. Their fireworks are better than some townships 4th fireworks, and running the bases is a unique way to get on the field and run one out with your son. Being that I'm a Cub fan it's additionally cool that the franchise is now part of the Cubs organization. It will be nicer to see some players get to the show. The only complaint I can think of is the $5 parking fee. Parking was free here for over 20 years until some fool found another way to screw families out of money. All in all, if you like baseball you just cannot go wrong here. Cougars games are good for any age. Cheers! read more

3.5 Stars I am a little at odds with this stadium. The Kane County Cougars are currently one of the Single A affiliates of the Arizona Diamondbacks. The Diamond backs have two Single A teams, and the Cougars play in the Midwestern League. That being said, if you are used to watching Major leauge games, you will need to some what lower your expectations, as this league is 3 steps down from the top, so the guys are still learning and honing their skills. Field: Decent dimensions- L: 335, C 400 , R: 335 feet respectively. The batter's eye is a sad black tarp and the field walls and pretty much everywhere in the stadium is covered in ads. There looks to be a large rough patch patch between center and right that might cause F8 and F9 some issues if they aren't watching their footing. Parking: There are two options, premium parking for $10 or $5 for regular. Both seem somewhat overpriced, and the regular isn't that much farther of a walk than premium Promotions: Like many minor league teams, these guys have a ton of giveaway days and themed nights. The promotions during the game are pretty standard to other minor league team as well, so expect some entertainment besides a baseball game Food: They offer your standard baseball fare, I can't speak to the quality of the regular food. Gluten Free: They have a dedicated grill right behind home plate that offers a handful of options, including beer! The $4 hot dog is decent, although I would avoid the bun. It is on the cardboard-y side and crumbles easily Seating: There is number of options in terms of seating for you to choose from. The lower portion of the stands are actual seats, while the upper part are metal bleacher type seats. There are 2 small lawn sections along the left and right field that have a somewhat steep incline. In the back of the outfield, there is a covered picnic area for groups. Depending upon the game/ group purchase, they offer Rooftop and suites as well. These seats are located on the upper level and offer a separate entrance into the game. If you chose to, you can also access the main concourse from the area. Hands down about the suites is that on a 90+ degree day, you can escape the heat and still watch the game inside with A.C. One of the biggest issues that I personally had with the suites was their drink policy. With the purchase of my ticket, it included a buffet that ran for 2 hours, 1 hour before the game and 1 hour during. After the service of the buffet concluded, they padlocked the fridges that contained the bottled water and sodas. Your only option was to pay $4+ at the bar. I have never seen such a cheap operation considering the upcharge of the ticket and the price that they pay for the bulk sodas. Overall, this is a one and done stadium if you are trying to visit all of the baseball stadiums Tip: ** On a hot summer day, about the first 3 rows at the top of the bleachers are covered by the overhang and will provide a somewhat cooler seat. read more

I do love the Kane County Cougars...I've been a fan for ten years now, and have always appreciated the staff and the show they put on. It's obvious management is trying to please the families who go beyond just putting on a baseball game. I love the entertainment options and promotional nights. Yesterday we enjoyed a pre game concert from Mike & Joe, another nice feature of the last couple seasons. Sadly, in ten years, the games have been harder to afford to go to on a regular basis. $5 to park...$14 for a reserved, bleacher, seat...$3 for a regular soda...$8.50 for a craft (Leinenkugel's) beer...No promo nights can help with costs, but this doesn't typically happen on the weekend. The Boomers provide much of the same style entertainment and a night there is definitely cheaper, starting with their free parking. I can appreciate the need to make money, but yesterday three of us spent $97.50 at the park...That's hard to do very often in a summer. read more

Good baseball + friendly staff + great fun with local people. We think it's fun to see young players who are rising stars - guys like Wilsson Contreras and Kyle Schwarber, whom we first saw at the Cougars games! Especially compared with White Sox and Cubs ticket prices, the prices are great for the tickets. $15 or less, including for box seats that are really close to the field. Creative theme nights plus frequent post-game fireworks. This summer we tried the Strike Zone seats for the first time. We reserved a table for four for less than $100 total. Great view, helpful staff for getting food and drinks, and the back row even has a little bit of awning cover in case it rains. Seats swivel and are really comfortable. The Strike Zone seats sell out on weekends, so order yours early! read more

It takes a lot to get me to move my car, especially to drive out to the 'burbs. And then I was told there'd be baseball and cheap beer. SOLD!!! So we hauled the car out for some minor league fun. I had no idea what to expect but it was a blast! Though the beers weren't as cheap as promised, the selection was amazing. Seriously, they had Goose Islands Green Line! That's not the easiest beer to find since it's only on tap! Had a delicious Bobak's jalapeno and cheddar sausage! Mmmm.... Compared to the Road to Wrigley game we saw last year, there seemed to be less entertainment between innings. That being said, at the very end we got tumblers, and then fireworks played to bad pop music (cool tiny show though!) and then everyone of ANY age got to run the bases! Usually they just let the kiddos - but we grown up got to this time! And I beat those little 6 year-olds too! Eat. My. Dust. And go cry to your mommy! If you can make the drive do it. Tickets were $12, parking is ample and free, the food/drink was not as cheap as we thought but still better than a major league park. Oh, and we had to watch our language! This isn't Wrigley. There are a TON of the young ones around! Be respectful! :) And have fun with the family! read more

Had such a great time; food was good, drinks were affordable and a lot to choose from (seltzer's, wine, mixed cocktails, even a "cooler" to get choose different kinds of beer.) Entertainment, from Haley Mae Campbell, was great. Sound quality was nice. Post game fireworks were nice. Plenty of washrooms. Clean and tidy. Kids zone was the highlight for my 4yo. read more

Take me out to the (cheap) balllllllllll gaaaaaaaaame!! If you like baseball, hate city driving/expensive parking, and only want to pay a few $$ for tickets, come to a Cougars game! I was here twice in the last 3 weeks with friends, and for work. For the game with friends, we got seats about 15 rows up, along the 1st base line for $6 a piece. Parking was $5, and you're clearly directed where to park in their paved, lined lot. For the work game, we got to go to the upper deck patio, with food and drink included. There is private seating for that area, and the patio has a roof itself, which was much appreciated with the MAJOR storms I encountered there. At the first game, I ordered just a mixed margarita. It was $8 but came in a large yard glass. They will even mix it for you! It was good, but ended up being wayyyyyyyyyyyyy too much sugar for me. I felt pretty sick after it. My friends loved it and tolerated it just fine though. The rooftop party offered many ballpark options- burgers, hotdogs, brats and grilled chicken. I had a cheese burger (ok, and a hot dog too, don't judge!) with potato salad and chips, and it was REALLY good. It was a nicely grilled patty, that was of a higher quality than just a frozen burger from the box at Jewel. Potato salad had huge potato chunks, and was also good. Miller lite and a craft beer option were given, as well as a red and white wine. Nice time had by all! Our game did get rained out after 5 innings, the called it a Cougars win, but offered free tix to another game as well! Super nice of them. Will be back again! read more

Good stadium, good hot dogs, but the cougars are not very good. If you're looking for a place to take the kids, this would be fitting though. The stadium puts on a lot of activities that the kids love, like letting a kid running around the bases, having the mascot dance around, and playing SpongeBob Squarepants on the bigscreen. The stadium is also big, spacious, and clean. I will say its pretty cool that they shoot off a few fireworks. I wouldn't recommend the Kane County Cougars for an adult event, but it's okay for kids. We went for our company outing, had a bunch of beers, and it was fun. read more

Please see my blog for more details and reviews. What a FUN way to spend a Tuesday night.......$12 box seats........fireworks after the game......then kids get to run the bases. Pay the extra $5 for the "preferred parking" its worth it to park that close and get out easy. Get the corn on the cob!! Game time was 6:30 pm and left a bit after 10 pm.......somehow I still managed to spend $100 (not including tickets and parking) on beers ($4.50 per), corn (excellent), pretzels, funnel cakes and baseball cards. A great family outing! read more

No Super Ropes... NO SUPER ROPES... you've got to be kidding me. Y'all are better than this. Don't come here with expectations of consuming a super rope, you will be massively disappointed. However, it is a beautiful park and I did have a great time at the game. Very family friendly environment. read more

Fun at the Ballpark. Close game but the atmosphere is lively. Maybe because it is the middle of the week or because there was a big downpour earlier, but sad to see not many fans are here. The between innings entertainment is always great family fun. Let's not forget the fireworks in middle of 7th inning and end of the game. Great family fun. I think everyone would enjoy coming here. Bring extra cash. Food and drinks are on high side. Quality is so-so. Only reason I give this ballpark a 4 instead if a 5. read more

Northwestern Medicine Field - Understaffed concessions. The seven dollar refillable cup is a scam because you have to wait almost an hour to get a refill. - Amateur Sports Teams Near Me - Geneva, Illinois

The Cougars are the Chicago area's FIRST minor league baseball team, with their first season in 1991. They have won 2 Midwest League titles in their history, 2001 and 2014. The tickets fairly reasonably priced, with deals for certain games like $5 reserved and some half price ticket days. As with just about all of the minor league franchises in the area, the target audience seems to be groups. Weekends are the busiest games. The food is pretty decent, they have a barbecue area in the right field corner, with prices overall cheaper than a pro sports venue. The parking fee has jumped SIGNIFICANTLY this year at $10 which I think is too high for the level of the product one is attending. The times are fun, but I wish people would ACTUALLY WATCH AND PAY ATTENTION TO THE GAMES!!! That is NOT a knock on the team. Overall, it is a good experience for a baseball lover like myself! Hope to see you at the park! read more

I've got to agree with other reviews on Yelp- While it's a great time to see the Cougars play and the venue is nice... The pricing of everything, across the board, is just ridiculous for minor league baseball. It actually costs more to see the Cougars play than it does to see the White Sox. That seems crazy, doesn't it? Granted, you're sitting farther away at a Sox game... Aaaand you've somehow got to factor in the value of your time when it comes to undoubtedly spending upwards of two hours round trip plus gas, but, still. For the sake of comparison, Cougars tickets run $9-13 a pop depending on how close you want to get to the field, and parking is $5. Upper deck Sox tickets are $5-7, and parking is $10. Food and drink prices seem the same across the board, and while I understand they do a $1 beer promotion on Thursdays, $7.50 for a beer every other day of the week, at a minor league game, is straight up crazy. I guess if you can get a good deal on tickets through some of the coupon sites folks around here have mentioned, that's cool... But if you're just paying regular price, go see the Sox instead. You might even end up saving a few bucks, as insane as that is to think. It seems like all the Cubs branding all over the place has resulted in Wrigleyville pricing being imported to Geneva. Here's some tips we figured out: 1. There's not a bad seat in the house, including the lawn area, so just buy your tickets at the park and you can avoid the "convenience" fee you pay buying online. Of course you probably won't be able to score front row seats like you can buying ahead of time online, but, whatever. 1a. I've never, ever seen anyone checking tickets once you're inside the park. Depending on your personal scumbag acceptance level, you could realistically buy a lawn ticket and sit somewhere way better. If someone is like "Hey you're in our seat!" just do the confused "Oh crap, sorry!" look at your ticket, then scurry off somewhere else. 2. If you're going to an evening game, you'll want to sit on the third base side (sections 111-118) as that way the sun will be behind you. Sitting in sections 108-103 or the first base lawn section means you'll be holding your hand up to block the sun for the first few innings if it's a sunny day. 3. There's absolutely no reason to buy the $10 premium parking. The map makes the 5/3 Bank Stadium compound look massive, but it's a very short walk from the gate to even the farthest corner of the $5 parking lot. Additionally, if you show up at the right time they've got a trolley thing that carts you from the parking lot to the gate... Although, again, it's such a short walk that you'll spend more time waiting for the trolley to fill up than you would've if you just decided to hoof it. 4. Unless you're bringing in some massive backpack, there's no bag checks to speak of. So, if you want to bring your own snacks/refreshments you can basically walk right in. (Although on Thursdays with $1 drinks and hot dogs there't not much reason to do this.) 4a. Recently went to a game where someone brought an actual, huge, over-stuffed backpack without a second look from anyone at the gate. Go nuts, I guess? 5. Don't buy anything at the souvenir trailer right inside gate 1, there's a much bigger and cooler store behind home plate that has way better Cougars swag including the actual hats they wear and other neat stuff. read more

What a fun place to see a minor league ball game. The tickets are very affordable. Parking is a breeze and FREE! There are a lot of food options and the pricing is very reasonable. With a ballgame there comes the delicious beer that's usually a small cup for a lot of money but not here. There's a wide variety of draft and bottled beers at a reasonable price. Is drinking Two Brothers beer a necessity for a ball game? Nope but it sure is nice. The only downside is the food and drink is cash only. Luckily, there are a handful of ATMs scattered throughout to readily prepare you for tasty snacks and drinks. There are always family-friendly events set up which makes it a great experience for everyone. You can usually see fireworks, run the bases or get autographs from players. If you haven't gone and you like baseball - it's worth going. And if you have kids, it's a lot of easy, inexpensive fun. Best part, if they lose, you aren't vested into the team or have to deal with the crowds like you might at a Cubs game. So...go. You'll have fun. read more

Summer Time = Baseball I've been going to Cougars games for years now. I've watched them on the lawn, regular seating, and party decks. I don't think there's a bad seat in the stadium.

Keep it up Kane County Cougars! read more

A FUN, affordable time for the family or friends! I have been attending Kane County Cougars games for years now. I remember going when I was younger and now being 23 years old I still enjoy going to see my Kane County Cougars! I have sat in the lawn and packed my blankets and fold up chairs and have also sat on the dugout in row 1 for only $12 per ticket! Are you kidding? Try going to a major baseball game for that price... unfortunately it is not going to happen! This ball park is easy to get to and the parking is free. Free parking for a sporting event? Yep..you read that correct. FREE parking and it is easy to park and close to the ball park. The tickets are unbelievable cheap and like I mentioned to sit in a regular box seat on the dugout or near the dugout is only $12 per ticket! You can't go wrong.. As for the concessions and drinks, definitely reasonable and you won't be nervous when your little kiddies ask for the popcorn, candy and soda! For the adults, you can get ice cold beer (so many varieties! Miller Lite, MGD, Bud Light, Shocktop, 312 , leinenkugel, Heineken, Bud Light Lime..) they have something for everyone. This park is very family friendly, Everyone is very respectful and they have so many activities and large jumper's for kids and after each 2-3 innings they do activities on the field for the kids! It is such a great experience, you won't leave with your wallet empty but you will leave the ball park with great memories and fun laughs. A definite must go to during the summer. Thanks Y'a'll! read more

Great experience. The Cougars are currently a farm team for the Cubs and their recent first-round draft pick put on a great show during the first game of a Saturday double-header. The tickets to games are so cheap (~$12) we actually bought three for the two of us just for a bit more space. Even splurged on the VIP parking ($10) which was about as convenient as possible to the stadium. Concession staff were super-friendly. We enjoyed a few Two Brothers beverages and huge brats. Prices were lower than MLB, but certainly not "low". Expect to spend $15 for a brat and a Two Brothers beer, which is still expensive in my books (and thus the one-star shave). It's hard to go wrong on a Saturday with a baseball game, beer, and dog. And the Cougars delivered that experience in a nice, clean stadium with friendly staff. Kudos! read more

It may have been a minor league game, but we had a MAJOR LEAGUE TIME! In fact, the Kane County Cougars are farm team for the Chicago Cubs. The Cubs draft out of college and that's where they play! 3 of the Cubs World Series players: Kyle Schwarber, Willson Contreras and Albert Almora Jr., were former Kane County Cougars! Thats a reason alone to love this place! I have been here many times with my family and we always have such a great time! For as cheap as it is, you have such a great time. This is a great night out with the kids or family, but i would not recommend it it for an adult event- thats what Wrigley or Wrigley Rooftops is for. There are even jumpy houses and activities for kids. The tickets go as follow- Box Seats: $15/ Senior 65+ $7.50 Strike Zone Premier Seats: $19.75 Reserved Seats: $13/ Senior 65+ $6.50 Lawn: $9/ Senior 65+ $4.50 There is also Accessible Seating in sections 103, 104, 108, 109, 111, 112, 115, 116, and 117. Parking $5/ Premium Parking $10 (not much closer) Personally, we always choose the reserved seats on the bench because they are spacious and shaded usually! However, the lawn is just as fun because you can bring chairs, blankets, and whatever you need to make yourself comfortable- an awesome choice for a date. There is even fireworks usually! The food is pretty standard ballpark food, and they do have gluten free options- WOOHOO! The beer is great, including Summer Shandy. By the way, Thursday is Thirsty Thursday and beers, sodas and hot dogs are only $1! Bring the family for some ball! read more

I have known about the Kane County Cougars since I was in junior high (so late 90s) but never went to a game until summer 2015. I was happy that KCC offered an online/mobile ticket option and their tickets are so cheap that you really can't say no to attending a game. We paid $10 per ticket and got seats on the first base line. Can't beat that. Lawn seats were even cheaper and you can bring your own chairs, blankets, etc. so you can make a comfortable evening of a game. There's a ton of parking and the "far lot" is free so you don't have to bring cash. The "far lot" would be about a 10-minute walk but there's little trams running so it took about three minutes to get to the main entrance of the park. The mobile ticketing was a bit funky when we arrived and a ton of ticket-takers weren't able to scan mobile tickets so they just let a bunch of people in, which was a bit odd. Since the tickets were so cheap, I wasn't gonna complain. The park isn't too huge and it's pretty easy to figure out where you're going. There's a lot of food options, including a bunch of Two Brothers beer stands which is cool since they're local and make a beer just for the KCCs. Yum. Food is abundant and cheap, seats are comfortable, and the lawn seats are worth purchasing if you want to watch fireworks in comfort. All in all, I really enjoyed my experience at a KCC game and I'd love to go back. Parking is cheap or free, the stadium isn't far from the Metra (and there's a shuttle!), and the entire experience is inexpensive. Oh, and you get to watch some decent baseball, so it's a win-win. read more

First time watching Kane county Cougars. What a fun filled evening. Great ball park and concession stations. The whole experience was memorable and would highly recommend this outing for the whole family. read more

This place is one of the better minor league baseball parks we've been to. Believe me, that says a lot because we've been to quite a few. Let's start with the beer selection (a cold beer on a hot day.. ahhh). They have Two Brothers on tap, amongst other delicious cold libations. On top of that there is a Cougars Craft Beer Cave that has tons for you to choose from. There's a bobaks sausage stand, a separate grill area where they push out delicious food & the normal baseball style food at the concession stands. 5 dollar tickets on Monday, thirsty Thursday, Sunday funday (where they set up bounce houses & the kiddies 10 & under eat FREE!) & a bunch of other things to do while you're there. Parking is only 5 bucks & the lot is well organized with plenty of personnel to assist you. Clean bathrooms, good food, great beer & reasonably priced food and tickets sounds like a perfect game day, right?! Oh & Nancy Faust plays on Sunday! She's amazing! read more

Great family time at the ball field. The tickets are inexpensive. There are so many fun theme nights. The park is very family oriented. You can also go with just adults and have a great time....Thirsty Thursdays are $1 beer, pop, and $2 hot dogs. This is not professional baseball. This is a Single A affiliate of the AZ Diamondbacks. Wish it were still a Cubs affiliate, but that has changed. If you are coming for the baseball alone, you may be disappointed. If you are coming to give your kids the experience of going to the ball game on a summer day, it's great. The food is normal at the regular concessions. Go to the kiosks and the grill at the far east end for better fare. They also have IPAs, if you don't want a normal beer. Parking is $5. We prefer to sit on the west side/3rd baseline area for most games. That way the sun is not glaring into your eyes. Fireworks are pretty remarkable for how often they have them. All in all a fun time for the family. read more

Great family fun! Good food! Awesome specials every day of the week! I went to five games this season. The last game on Labor Day my eight year old waited in a long line of kids trying to get items autographed by the players. He was the last one left and Andy McGuire stayed by the fence until every kid could get an autograph. That's what it's all about. My son went to school on Tuesday telling everyone about it. He really made his summer! Thank you Mr. McGuire and thank you Cougars! See you next year! read more
