Fans of baseball will delight in the Fort Lauderdale Stadium, which is home to the Spring Training for the Baltimore Orioles major league baseball team.
Built in 1961, the Stadium bears a distinct ballpark character. Shaded with cool plants and shady palm trees, the Grandstand offers a great view of the game, up close and personal. You can even cheer the Baltimore Orioles during the exhibition games that are hosted here. The box seats in the Grandstand offer visitors great leg room and are nestled in the shade to offer a great baseball viewing experience. The stadium boasts of a capacity to seat 8,340. Although the Fort Lauderdale Stadium is one of the oldest stadiums still in use, it is not considered to be one of the leading ballparks in this region, on account of its insignificant contribution to the region, architecturally and in terms of the number of games that are hosted here. Plans are currently underway to convert the stadium into a cricket ground or even a ball park.
Tickets to the pre-season games are priced at affordable rates of $6 for general seating, $9 for the Grandstand and $12 for Box seats. You can even catch your favorite athlete during the training sessions and get yourself an autographed baseball! All in all, if it's a casual game of baseball you're looking to catch in the relaxed atmosphere that Fort Lauderdale is renowned for, then the Fort Lauderdale Stadium is a must visit for you.
