Event Details

On August 17, 2013, AT&T Park throws open its gates to everyone (both adults and kids) from 1-5 pm so you can “Take the Field.

Get lessons from celebrity coaches, practice your swing in the batting cages, run the bases, dribble a basketball on a half-court hardwood floor court (built right on the field), go on a ballpark tour and let the kids play in the Children’s Fairyland Kids’ Zone.

Relax in the Beer Garden (with beer for purchase), and take pictures in the dugout with the 2012 World Series Trophy. Watch the Splash Hits Derby Contest to see who can slug the ball out into McCovey Cove.
