The Tampa Bay Rays started selling tickets Saturday, Nov. 16 at 2 p.m. Season passes and single-game seats will both be available. Prices drop 15 percent across most sections.
Standing room spots cost just $10 for every home game. A limited number will be sold. The club also rolled out upgraded seating with better views and fresh all-you-can-eat packages that weren’t available before.
Buy an Opening Day ticket between Nov. 12-16 and you’ll get a code. That code unlocks one free ticket to any April or May home game. Each Opening Day purchase earns one complimentary ticket, with a maximum of six per account and certain blackout dates applying.
The Rays return home with a series against the Chicago Cubs from April 6-8. Then the New York Yankees visit for three games from April 10-12. These matchups will be the first in St. Petersburg in 18 months, since hurricanes in 2024 pushed the team to play in Tampa during 2025.
“We are excited to return home to Tropicana Field in April and to once again join our fans and neighboring businesses in downtown St. Petersburg in celebrating the return of Rays Baseball,” said Ken Babby, the organization’s CEO, in a Rays release. “As we open single-game ticket sales, we’re proud to offer a variety of additional options that make it easy for fans across the region to be part of the experience.”
Stadium repairs continue as planned. New ownership has tweaked both pricing and where people sit for the coming season.
The ballpark stays closed to visitors, but fans can check out the Premium Preview Center across the street at 1101 1st Ave. South. Inside sits a life-size copy of the new seat. An interactive display lets you see what the field looks like from different spots. A Pop-Up Team Store runs at that same location.
