Target Field is the home ballpark of the Minnesota Twins, and is one of the newest and most modern parks in the nation. In its opening season in 2010, ESPN The Magazine named it the #1 baseball stadium experience in North America. In 2014, it hosted Major League Baseball All-Star Game. All of the stadium’s prestige is earned by its elaborate design and fan-centered experience.
With such a popular and swiftly-growing stadium making headlines and gaining nationwide notoriety, it’s important for the fans to stay aware of the best ways to arrive and find a good parking spot by purchasing spaces ahead of time.

Areas/Roads to avoid due to traffic

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I tailgate? If so, what are the rules?
- There is no tailgating around the stadium since there are only ramps, but areas such as the northeast portion of downtown offer lots specifically for tailgating, each with specific rules. The general tailgating rules apply, such as no littering and no occupying more than one parking space.
Is it better to take public transportation?
- There are many available uses of public transportation, notably the Route 17 MetroStation bus, that connect directly with the stadium and avoid the ramps. Because of the limited parking options, public transportation would be a very wise choice.
