Kauffman Stadium

The eighth oldest ballpark in Major League Baseball, Kauffman Stadium is currently undergoing a $250 million renovation project to be completed in 2009.  Plans for renovation include installing a new HD scoreboard and control room in addition to reducing the total capacity of the stadium to 39,000 from over 40,000 in order to improve the viewing experience of the fans.  The Royals will also add totally new restroom facilities and concession areas.  Ticket sales for the 2008 season will be considerably high as fans say goodbye to the old to welcome the new improvements for the following season.

In 2004, the Kansas City Royals begin their 32nd season in the confines of Kauffman Stadium, located at P.O. Box 419969, Kansas City, MO 64141-6969. Kauffman Stadium played host to the 1973 All-Star Game and two championship series in 1980 and 1985. A 30 foot by 40 foot color video display board was added in 1990, and in 1995, the fences were moved in 10 feet from bullpen to bullpen and lowered from 12 feet to 9 feet.

The stadium can hold more than 40,000 people and the field is symmetrical all the way around. There is more than enough parking on the lot of Kauffman Stadium, one of the biggest factors in the most recent sets of renovations. Although it's a little pricy per car, you'll easily save that through the purchase of your tickets. Every seat is a good one in Kauffman Stadium, due to the good sight lines and comfort of the seats themselves. You can purchase a ticket to sit in the club box or right behind the dugout for a very reasonable price or you can sit in the outfield plaza for even less. If neither of these works for you, you can also sit in the HyVee plaza for a bargain price.
