Full detailAbout Busch Stadium
Busch Stadium is the downtown ballpark of the St. Louis Cardinals, with a seating capacity of 44,383. The Busch Stadium seating map has four seating levels: the Field Level (100s), the Loge and Redbird Club level (200s), the Pavilion level (300s) and the Terrace level (400s). Home plate sits in the south west corner of the ballpark, with the Cardinals dugout on the first base side and the visitors' dugout on the third base side. The seats closest to the plate are the CommunityAmerica Cardinals Club (field sections 1 to 8) and the Cardinals Infield and Home Boxes (141 to 148). Along the lines, the Cardinals Dugout Box and 1st Base Field Box (135 to 140) face the Visitors Infield Box and 3rd Base Field Box (156 to 165). The outfield has bleachers in right field (101 to 111) and left centre (189 to 197), plus the social Budweiser Terrace in right field, open to every ticket holder with no assigned seats. Busch Stadium seats are all open-air, and from behind home plate you look out across the outfield towards downtown and the Gateway Arch.
Designed by HOK Sport (now Populous) and opened on 10 April 2006 on part of the footprint of the old Busch Memorial Stadium, the ballpark is an open-air, brick and steel design. The Gate 3 entrance is spanned by a bridge that recalls the Eads Bridge, and the open outfield frames views of the downtown skyline and the Gateway Arch. LED lights capable of light shows were added in 2019, along with the Budweiser Terrace in the right field upper deck.
