Orioles to add new bar and social space at Oriole Park ahead of new season<\/p>\n

\"JulianBALTIMORE \u2014<\/p>\n

Days after the 2026 regular season came to a close, the Baltimore Orioles announced new renovations to Oriole Park ahead of the 2027 season.<\/p>\n

Changes will be made to the left field upper deck area of the ballpark to make space for a new social space that will include a new bar, concessions and standing room viewing areas.<\/p>\n

“We\u2019ve listened to our fans, who have expressed a desire for more social spaces that offer a vibrant atmosphere to gather, connect, and cheer on the O’s together,” Orioles President of Business Operations Catie Griggs said in a written statement.<\/p>\n

According to the team, construction of the new space will begin immediately and will be ready for Opening Day.<\/p>\n

“By strategically reimagining existing spaces at Oriole Park at Camden Yards we are creating new game-day experiences while expanding opportunities for year-round business and community use,” said Lindsey Parker, executive director of the Maryland Stadium Authority.<\/p>\n

The renovations will eliminate about 2,000 seats, reducing the capacity of Oriole Park at Camden Yards to 40,234.<\/p>\n

The team said additional renovations to other areas of the ballpark will be announced later this year.<\/p>\n

Last year, the team announced new upgrades to the ballpark’s video board<\/a> and sound system.<\/p>\n
