Main image

Oriole Park at Camden Yards is a Major League Baseball stadium in Baltimore, Maryland, and the home of the Baltimore Orioles; it opened in 1992 and helped popularise the retro-style urban ballpark. The complex is noted for integrating an exterior historic railroad warehouse into its site plan.

The ballpark offers multiple seating levels, a brick façade backdrop and fan-concourse areas, with the long B&O Warehouse directly beyond the outfield and the pedestrian Eutaw Street running between the field and the warehouse. It sits within the city core and is used for professional baseball games, special events and team-related activities.

Designed as a stadium for year-round professional use, Camden Yards replaced older suburban-ballpark models with a downtown location and exposed masonry elements. Since opening, it has remained the Orioles’ primary baseball venue and a reference point for later stadium designs.

The stadium is located in downtown Baltimore close to the Inner Harbor waterfront, integrated with surrounding streets and public transport links that serve the city’s central area.

  • Opening and design: Opened in 1992 and widely cited as an influential example of modern "retro" ballpark design that reintroduced an intimate, urban baseball-stadium model.
  • Capacity and season: Seating capacity is approximately 45,000, and the venue is the home ballpark of Major League Baseball's Baltimore Orioles during the MLB season (roughly April to October).

What to See #

  • B&O Warehouse: A long 19th-century brick railroad warehouse that forms the stadium's outfield backdrop; the warehouse is a distinctive red-brick structure running along the right-field side of the ballpark.
  • Eutaw Street: A pedestrian concourse between the field and the B&O Warehouse that functions as a fan area and walkway on game days, lined with team exhibits and retail outlets.

How to Get to Oriole Park at Camden Yards #

Oriole Park at Camden Yards sits in downtown Baltimore adjacent to Camden Station. By public transit take the Baltimore Light Rail to the Camden Yards stop or the MARC Penn Line to Camden Station - both stops are immediately adjacent to the ballpark (a 1-5 minute walk from station exits).

If driving, use the I‑395/I‑83 approaches from Baltimore city center and follow stadium signage for visitor parking; the ballpark is within easy walking distance of many downtown hotels and the Inner Harbor.

Tips for Visiting Oriole Park at Camden Yards #

  • Skip driving on game day by using transit-Camden Yards is a short walk from Camden Station (Amtrak/MARC) and from the Light Rail, which is usually faster and more reliable than city parking.
  • Arrive at least an hour before first pitch to explore Eutaw Street and the B&O Warehouse façade; the street between the warehouse and the ballpark has statues and historic views that many fans miss when they head straight to their seats.
  • Buy or mobile-download tickets in advance and enter through the Eutaw Street gates if you want the full pre-game atmosphere; this also helps avoid long lines at the main ticket windows.
