TAMPA — The Tampa Bay Rays on Tuesday announced the opening of a ballpark experience center in Westshore.
The facility will give fans an opportunity to see what the team’s new stadium will look like from the inside when it opens in 2029.
Rays CEO Ken Babby says it will give investors and partners the chance to see what their money is buying.
For fans, it will give them a preview of seating options for when they want to buy tickets to a game and what the surrounding development will look like.
“The Rays Ballpark Experience Center, when it opens in a few months in Westshore, will be what ‘Forever is Now’ is all about,” Babby said. “Rays fans, sitting anywhere from general to premium seating, will no longer have to imagine their experience in our new ballpark. One visit to the Experience Center will make it all real and serve as a reminder of why we love baseball, and especially our team.”
The experience center will be built inside the Westshore City Center.
The team anticipates it will open early next year.
