Baltimore Orioles Tickets

The Orioles in brief: a charter club with deep Baltimore roots

The Baltimore Orioles play home games at Oriole Park at Camden Yards, a downtown ballpark near the Inner Harbor, from late March or early April through late September, with postseason games in October. The franchise was an American League charter member in 1901 as the Milwaukee Brewers, played as the St. Louis Browns from 1902 to 1953, and moved to Baltimore in 1954. It has played in the AL East since the division was created in 1969.

The Orioles have won three World Series, in 1966, 1970 and 1983, and seven AL pennants, the first in 1944 as the Browns. Their ten AL East titles run from 1969 to 2023.

• The Weaver years: manager Earl Weaver led the club through its run of pennants from the late 1960s into the early 1980s.
• Hall of Famers: Brooks Robinson, Frank Robinson, Jim Palmer, Eddie Murray and Cal Ripken Jr.
• Retired numbers: 4, 5, 8, 20, 22 and 33, plus Jackie Robinson's 42, retired across the league.
• Rivals: the Washington Nationals in the Beltway Series, plus the Yankees and Blue Jays in the AL East.

Where to sit at Camden Yards for an Orioles game

Camden Yards opened on April 6, 1992, with 48,876 seats. The club has reduced capacity over the years, and Wikipedia lists it at 42,455 as of 2026. The bowl has a lower Field Level, a Club Level and an upper deck, with the brick B&O Warehouse running behind the right field seats.

The dugouts

RateYourSeats places the Orioles dugout behind sections 22, 24 and 26 and the visitors' dugout behind sections 48, 50 and 52. Sections between the two dugouts are the infield seats with the clearest view of the pitcher and hitter, and they carry the highest resale demand. Field Level sections run about 27 rows deep, and seat numbers run low to high from right to left as you face the field, so seat 1 sits on your right.

Club Level and upper deck

The Club Level sits between the two main tiers and gives a closer, higher view. The upper deck behind home plate shows the whole field and the downtown skyline beyond the outfield, and it is the strongest budget choice for anyone who wants to watch strategy.

Outfield and Eutaw Street

The right field seats back onto Eutaw Street, the pedestrian walkway between the ballpark and the warehouse. It is the busiest part of the ballpark before the game and a good choice for fans who want to catch a home run ball or stay close to the food stands. Left field was reconfigured before the 2022 season, when the wall was moved back as much as 26.5 feet and raised from 7 feet to about 13 feet, then adjusted again for a later season, so older seat-view photos may not match the current wall.

Sun and shade at Camden Yards

Camden Yards is fully open air, so shade depends on the side of the field and the start time.

• The third base side gets shade earlier during afternoon and evening games, according to RateYourSeats.
• The first base side stays in the sun longer during day games, so its lower rows are the hottest seats for a summer afternoon start.

For a night game, the sun matters mainly in the first few innings, and the choice comes down to view and budget.

The MLB season and the Orioles games that sell first

Each MLB team plays 162 regular-season games, 81 at home. Spring training runs in February and March. The regular season starts in late March or early April and ends in late September, with the All-Star break in mid-July. Twelve teams reach the postseason, which can run into early November.

Since 2023 MLB has used a balanced schedule: every team plays every other team, and the Orioles meet each AL East rival 13 times. Interleague games include a home-and-away series with the Washington Nationals, the Beltway Series.

• The Yankees and Red Sox: visiting fans often fill a large share of the seats, and those series tend to draw the strongest demand of the regular season.
• The Nationals: the Beltway Series pulls fans from both sides of the region.
• Opening Day and holidays: the home opener, Memorial Day weekend and the Fourth of July sell earlier than a midweek game.
• Weekends: Friday and Saturday games draw the most demand; Monday to Thursday nights are the easiest tickets, and those nights also let you watch batting practice from Eutaw Street.
• October: postseason games carry demand well above anything in the regular season.

Getting to Camden Yards and gate rules

The ballpark sits at 333 West Camden Street, part of the Camden Yards Sports Complex it shares with M&T Bank Stadium, home of the Baltimore Ravens. Transit is the easiest way in:

• Light RailLink: stops at Camden Station and Convention Center.
• MARC Camden Line: commuter trains to Camden Station from Washington, D.C., and BWI Airport.
• Parking: the team says Oriole lots are permit-only and recommends buying in advance.

As of the 2026 season, the Orioles list these entry rules. Check the current Camden Yards guide before you go.

• Bags: one clear plastic bag no larger than 12 by 6 by 12 inches, a one-gallon freezer bag, or a clutch or fanny pack no larger than 5 by 7 inches. Medical and diaper bags are allowed.
• Food and drink: outside food is allowed within an approved bag, plus one factory-sealed plastic non-alcoholic drink of up to 20 ounces. No cans, glass or frozen bottles.
• Gates: open 60 minutes before first pitch Monday through Thursday and 90 minutes before on Friday through Sunday. Eutaw Street opens 2.5 hours early for Monday to Thursday night games.
• Re-entry: not allowed except in emergencies.

GoodSeats orders carry no digital transfer fees.

Gameday on Eutaw Street

Camden Yards is a city ballpark, so pregame usually means the Inner Harbor and nearby downtown restaurants rather than a tailgate. Inside the gates, Eutaw Street is the gathering point. Bronze, baseball-shaped plaques set into the pavement mark the spots where home runs have landed; Wikipedia counted 130 as of 2024. The longest in-game shot to reach the street was Gunnar Henderson's 462-foot home run on June 11, 2023. Former Oriole Boog Powell runs an outdoor barbecue stand along the walkway.

Listen during the national anthem: Orioles fans shout "O" on the line "Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave."

Camden Yards history and notable moments

After 38 seasons at Memorial Stadium, the Orioles moved downtown in 1992. Camden Yards was the first of the retro-classic major league ballparks and its design influenced a generation of ballparks around the country.

• 1966, 1970 and 1983: the club's three World Series titles, all won during the Memorial Stadium years.
• 1993: Ken Griffey Jr. hit the B&O Warehouse during the Home Run Derby; no home run has hit it during a regulation game.
• September 6, 1995: Cal Ripken Jr. played his 2,131st consecutive game, breaking Lou Gehrig's record, at Camden Yards.
• 2022: the left field wall was moved back and raised.
• 2024: a group led by David Rubenstein took control of the franchise.
