Important Truist Park Parking Tips

Before everything else, here is my most important tip for Braves game parking at Truist Park…book your space beforehand, with my friends at SpotHero (and thank you for supporting this blog’s sponsors)!

Batteries included!

Truist Park Parking Tip #1: Official Braves / Battery Atlanta Parking

To start, here is the official Braves parking map so you can visualize all of this. I’d keep it open as you’re reading.

The Braves operate most of the garages that are closest to Truist Park. These include the Delta, Red, and Orange garages, and the B9 and B11 garages across the Circle 75 Parkway.

The ones that aren’t marked on the map are (clockwise starting from the top) the Green, Purple, and Yellow garages; Battery Atlanta runs those. There is another one at the Doubletree Hotel operated by Official Parking (great name). That one gets poor reviews; just saying.

The Orange garage is for Premium Club members, so you’d have to get a game ticket from one of them. Same with the Delta Deck near the home plate entrance; that’s for Delta Sky and Infiniti Club season seat holders. It’s one of the nicer perks if you can snag one, incidentally, including valet service.

(Learn more about Braves premium seating in my highly informative Truist Park Seating Guide!)

“Ooooh, that’s a nice purple lot, very purply!”

The Red, Green, Yellow and Purple decks, as I write this, cost $50. They’re all a short walk to the center field plaza entrance, through Battery dining and shops. Convenient and nice atmosphere.

Hefty charge, right? Yes, but if you spend $50 anywhere with the Battery merchants…and that includes dinner in the Terrapin Taproom…you can get your receipt validated with that merchant and your parking is free!

It’s a great deal, especially if you plan on having a meal before or after the game and buying souvenirs at the Braves Clubhouse Store, which also counts.

These garages can be very slow to exit, though; the Red Deck in particular gets some guff online about machines not always working. Plus gridlock. There’s plenty to do in the Battery, so you might want to wait out the traffic there.

You can pull up and park most games (credit card only), but I highly recommend booking your parking in advance. I’ll talk more about that.
 

“You just go straight ahead, you can’t miss it.”

The B9 and B11 garages are across the Circle 75 Parkway, and very convenient to the ballpark; B11’s main entrance is literally across the street from the left field gate. These are, to my knowledge, available to everyone, and cost a bit less than Battery garages. B9 is closer to the Red Deck, so you could walk through the Red Deck and be in the Battery area.

From what I’m reading, B9 is better on weeknights, while B11 is better on weekends; I expect that may be because of office buildings nearby. But either is a good choice to be close to the ballpark for about the same price as Battery garages (and an easier exit).
 

Relax. It’s not 285 stairs to climb.

Truist Park Parking Tip #2: Braves North + Braves South Parking

The Braves South parking garages are across I-285 from the ballpark; there is a well-lit pedestrian crossing so you can watch lots of cars go under you. It’s kind of nice actually. South 60 is at the Cobb Galleria Centre (and close to the Cumberland Mall), in case you’d like to attend a convention.

South 60 and 61 are about a ten minute walk to the ballpark and Battery, and they’re again cheaper than the closer garages. Even better, many fans praise the ease of exiting onto I-285 after the game. Great for spending less money if you don’t mind a short walk.

In the past there was a “South 65” lot with shuttle service; currently that isn’t happening, but always in motion is the future.

I always tell people, if you’re going to tailgate, do it downhill.

The North 25 and North 29 lots are at the corner of Circle 75 and Herodian Way. These are also about a ten minute walk to the ballpark and easier to access from I-75. North 29 is the only Braves lot that allows tailgating; I’ll discuss that more later.

For sellout games, North 29 can be very slow to exit; for some reason they only use one entrance. Once you do get out, traffic is easy, but be aware.

These lots are cheaper than Battery lots (and good if you want to avoid Battery crowds), but it is uphill getting to the ballpark, so be mindful of that if you’re imbibing before the game.
 

Employment at Lockheed includes many perks…like a ride to the Braves game!

The Lockheed/Dobbins lot, a ways north just off U.S. 41, is available for weekday and playoff games. It’s some distance away, but the Braves offer shuttle service from the lot which is nice.

Shuttle buses drop you at the first base side on Battery Avenue, and they’ll be waiting there to take you back after the game. That takes some time, but it’s beauty to avoid dealing with ballgame traffic once you’re back in your car.

Plus it’s cheaper, although I don’t know the exact rate right now. (Here’s the Braves current parking prices.) Great if you want to spend less money without extra walking.
 

Nothing like Braves fans arriving to signal the end of your workday.

Truist Park Parking Tip #3: Braves East Parking (Even Further Away)

So now we’re getting a little further away from the ballpark and to the point where you’re crossing I-75 via Windy Ridge Parkway.

East 31, East 43 and East 44 are the most convenient of these, being right off of Windy Ridge, which leads directly to the ballpark (you’ll see Truist from Windy Ridge). These go for about $20 as I write this and are about a ten minute walk. East 43 is only available on Fridays and weekends.

These lots also offer an easy exit back onto I-75 and I-285, especially with traffic clearing out as you walk back. East 31 is especially useful for an easy egress, and is closest to Truist.

Because these spaces are for office buildings, you may have to wait for workers to leave on weeknights. More about that later.

Despite the name, Pennant Park is a hike from the ballpark. Uphill. Both ways.

East 32, East 41 and East 47 are further away on side avenues from Windy Ridge; you probably don’t want to use these unless you have to. It’s a longer walk (close to 20 minutes), and unless you know exactly where you’re going, it’s easy to get lost. East 32 is near Pennant Park, if you need a landmark.

If you do use them, they will be the cheapest of Braves lots. But be prepared for a hike…and an uphill one at times, especially from East 41. You might find some pedicabs that can bicycle you there, but that kind of defeats the purpose for saving money.

There used to be an East 35 and East 42 lot, but the Braves no longer operate those. You might find them on SpotHero. There’s also no more lots in the 50s that included Braves shuttle service at this time, but you can check back on the Braves website in case that changes.
 

Might want to leave a tip so they can afford a bigger gazebo.

Truist Park Parking Tip #4: Satellite Non-Braves Parking (+ Free Parking Options)

There is, of course, lots of parking (see what I did there?) that isn’t run by the Braves, and you can often find a nice deal or an easier exit this way. Again, book these in advance with SpotHero if you know where you want to park; if not, bring cash with you.

Here are some recommendations from forum dwellers that I’ve found:

200 Galleria Parkway: This garage is right next to the Braves South 61 lot at the Cobb Galleria Centre, and offers a similarly convenient walk across the pedestrian bridge to the ballpark. It can be cheaper by comparison if you book ahead, and offers an easy exit afterward onto either interstate in most cases.

I hope you don’t need to go get your stuff during a Braves game.

Herodian Way: There are a few lots on Herodian that are inexpensive and about a 10-15 minute walk (a bit further than the North 25 lot). There is a Public Storage location with a lot, and the Atrium office building at 2400 Herodian is a popular spot. I believe both lots take credit cards.

I’ve read that the Atrium lot offers a shuttle for weekend games, but I can’t confirm that. Regardless, it’s cheap, fairly convenient, and offers an easy exit.

Cobb Parkway (U.S. 41): Cobb Parkway (named for Braves great Cobb Parkway) runs south and west of Truist, and you can find decently priced parking at the corners of Cobb and Windy Ridge Parkway.

Fans recommend parking at the Red Lobster or KFC at that corner. These are closer to the Battery than the Herodian Way lots, and cheaper than Battery lots. And you can order some biscuits for your bring-in bag.

Not that you need an extra reason to eat at Murph’s, but here you go!

Murph’s: The lot near Murph’s restaurant is in front of the Galleria Centre. They offer a discount on parking for people dining there. Win-win! Murph’s is about a 10-minute walk, and the pedestrian bridge over I-285 is close by.

Chuck Douglas at Murph’s confirmed for me that parking is just $10 for diners. He did add that the Braves use their lot for some games, so just tell the attendant you’re eating at Murph’s and they’ll tell you where to park.

Applebee’s: The Applebee’s on Spring Road just south of Cobb Parkway is about a 12-minute walk, and as recently as 2023 they offered free Braves parking for diners. I don’t know if they still do; you can call them at (770) 432-1974 and ask.

Plenty of free parking…and shopping!

Free parking at Braves games is, of course, at your own risk, but here are some possible suggestions:

Akers Mill Square: This lot is a strip mall a bit further away (there’s a Whataburger there), it’s about a 20 minute walk. You can use the pedestrian bridge from the Renaissance Hotel. The lot is well-lit, but you might be uneasy walking back at night. Likely better for day games.

Windy Hill Hospital: This is close to a 25-30 minute walk west of Truist, but the lot should have plenty of spaces. So far no reports of anyone being towed, but I wouldn’t try it unless you’re familiar with the area.

Side Streets: You might be able to find a free street spot on the side streets off of Cobb Parkway or Spring Road south of the ballpark. One fan recommended the area near the Racetrac station. Again, this is a bit of a hike, and check for signs carefully.

I wouldn’t even try parking behind this sign.

Some things you should NOT try include looking for metered parking, which can be $10 per hour, or using the Cumberland Mall parking lot, which is for their customers and merchants. I’ve read reports of tickets. (One fan did say that the Cumberland Mall people recommended Akers Mill Square for free parking.)
 

Sure, parking, but get you some shuttle action too!

Truist Park Parking Tip #5: Hotel Parking

With a ballpark, entertainment options, and a convention center here, there are numerous hotels in the area. Many of them are within walking distance to Truist Park + Battery, which, if you’re staying here, could make it worth the cost.

I am not going to go into detail about all of them, but here’s a bit about a few that may help your decision if you go this route. I have to credit Southeast Travel Guide for some of this info, by all means check this page out if you’d like more info about the Truist Park hotels.

Many of the local hotels charge for parking, which kind of defeats the purpose, but a few have free parking: the Hampton Inn & Suites, the Wingate by Wyndham, and the Courtyard by Marriott (which is a lengthy walk). Homewood Suites on Cobb Parkway offers cheap parking, but it’s more than a mile walk. (It’s near Akers Mill Square is, btw, see free parking above.)

Pro tip: You don’t need a baseball package to do this!

There are also hotels that offer shuttle service to Truist Park, even if they’re walking distance. The aforementioned Wingate is one, as is the Marriott Northwest, and the Sonesta Atlanta Northwest Galleria.

So if you’re going cheap and don’t want to walk, Wingate is a good option.

The Omni offers a baseball package, but I expect you could do all of what’s included much more cheaply than what they likely charge for it. It wouldn’t sway me unless I already had the funds to stay at an Omni.
 

You can put your RV in the tailgating lot, but you gotta buy more than one spot.

Truist Park Parking Tip #6: Motorcycle, Bus + RV Parking

Motorcycle parking is easy enough at Truist…anywhere you want in the Braves lots. Next.

If you’re bringing your RV to the game for tailgating, it’s simple enough, since the Braves designate the North 29 lot for RV parking as well. Needless to say you’ll pay a higher charge, and you’ll have to order your pass beforehand.

The Atlanta Marietta RV Park is about 4 miles from the ballpark, too long to walk, but it’s only about a mile from the Lockheed Dobbins lot. For day games, you could use the Lockheed lot bus for free. 20 minutes or so walk, but you’re not navigating heavy traffic.

If you find a walkway, you can drop everyone off there.

The Braves have designated parking areas for buses. They won’t say where they are exactly, but I expect they’re on Windy Ridge Parkway near the ballpark. Charter buses can park there for free, but you’ll need a pass.

Since you’ll bringing a group obviously if you have a bus (unless you’re a little weird), you’ll likely be using a Braves representative for your tickets; be sure to ask them about bus parking. They will give you a pass you can use.
 

Tailgating…helping you avoid the “atmosphere fee” since…forever.

Truist Park Parking Tip #7: Tailgating

As previously stated, the Braves North 29 lot is the only Braves-approved tailgating lot. They have some rules, of course: no grilling except in grassy areas, no tents, no personal restrooms (snicker), no loud music, no lewd behavior and no illegal drugs.

Yeesh, what’s the point, right? Well, all I can say is if you get there early enough, you can park close to the grass where you can actually grill. You can arrive four hours before the game during the week, and 10:00 AM on weekends (It’s five o’clock somewhere).

There is a fair amount of tailgating here, it can be a fun time and help you avoid paying the always outrageous “atmosphere fee” for beer inside the ballpark. The walk isn’t too far, and if the steps to get to the pedestrian bridge are too much you can use the accessible ramp. You can also continue the party for two hours after the game (and wait out the slow exit), but let someone else drive.
 

Even this many lanes aren’t enough at game time.

Truist Park Parking Tip #8: Avoiding Braves Game Day Traffic

For weeknight games especially, Braves game traffic can be profoundly irritating. Between all of the people leaving work from the office buildings, shopping in the area, and going to the game, it can be a real something show.

The situation is why the Braves partnered with Waze to be their official traffic app, partly because that’s a lot easier and cheaper than building a viable public transit option. (I’ll talk about that in another post.)

Anyway, yes, get the Waze app on your phone if you haven’t already, order your parking beforehand, and use Waze to get there. It should route you around the worst traffic bottlenecks. If at all possible, avoid the intersection of I-285 and Cobb Parkway, which will be bad in all directions. Use side streets, and plan your route ahead of time.

It’s not SunTrust Park anymore, but thankfully they didn’t move the lots.

Speaking of that, your lot selection should include traffic as a factor, at least if you’re not parking in the Battery area.

The Braves help with this…they offer suggestions for lots based on the direction you’re coming from. Here they are:

• Coming from north or east: Use B11, East 41, East 42, East 43, East 44, or East 47.
• Coming from north or west: Use North 25, North 29, or Lockheed-Dobbins.
• Coming from south or east: Use East 31 or East 35.
• Coming from south or west: Use B9, South 60, or South 61.

So as you can imagine, if you search on SpotHero for satellite spots, you can use this as a guide to help you pick your spot. If an independent lot is near East 31, for example, it should be good coming from south or east.

And if you can, arrive early…remember, there’s plenty to do besides the game.
 

Anyone got a magazine to read?

Truist Park Parking Tip #9: Last But Definitely Not Least…Important Braves Parking Tips

Thanks for sticking with me this far. I probably should have included these in the beginning, but these tips are profoundly important, so if I could have your attention just a bit longer…

If I haven’t yet stressed enough buying your pass ahead of time and using Waze, let me repeat it. Book your space on SpotHero or through the Braves. Do NOT try to just drive to Truist Park without a plan and look for a spot. You will not be happy with the traffic and prices.

The corollary of this rule is to be aware when your lot opens. The Braves tell you the opening times here. Keep this in mind choosing a lot. Many lots share spaces with office buildings that have to empty out first. If you’re early you could be waiting a bit.

OK now turn around…wait no up the ramp…wait…

If you’ve never been or aren’t very familiar with the area, do something to remember where you parked. (I speak from experience on this.) Truist Park parking in spread wide in a lot of directions. It’s very easy to get disoriented in the streets, buildings, walkways and hills.

The area isn’t easy to navigate, so remember which direction to go after the game. To leave, I would use the same entrance to the ballpark that you entered from. You definitely don’t want to be wandering around in the Atlanta heat looking for your car.

Speaking of that Atlanta heat, be wary of that too in your parking. If you’re walking a distance, and you could be, it would be wise to have sunscreen and some water with you, especially if you’re bringing the kids or some elderly folks. Wear comfortable footwear, and be ready to ascend hills.

I mentioned pedicabs earlier; the Battery ATL website lists Joyride Pedicabs as their official provider. You’ll probably see a few from the farther lots. If you’re too tired to walk to that far away lot after the game, you can reach out to them.

It must have taken hours to build this ramp.

The Braves offer accessible parking in the Red Deck; if that’s too pricey for you, you can use North 29 with accessible spots. (Yes, that’s the tailgating lot. Don’t blame me.) The Braves even offer shuttle service from there; you can e-mail them to find out more.

If you have car trouble after the game in a Braves lot, AAA will come and help out, free of charge. Just put your hood up and tell the parking lot attendant. If you leave your car there, it will be towed at your expense, so let them help.

Battery lots all have EV charging stations; the Red Deck has the most with nine. Subject to availability of course.

Finally, remember that a surface lot usually beats a garage for a quick exit.

See, it’s not all that far!

There you are my friends, all of the information you need to navigate the never-ending challenge of finding Atlanta Braves game parking! I sincerely hope you found this useful.

(See why Ballpark E-Guides loves Gametime here!)

How To Buy Cheap Atlanta Braves Tickets, Tip #1) Using The Braves Website.

The Braves don’t make their website URL obvious, but they do share a helpful search phrase.

Buying tickets through the Atlanta Braves website is, of course, the easiest and most trusted way to buy Braves tickets. You will need the MLB Ballpark app on your phone, and the Braves will send your tickets there. To my knowledge, they don’t do paper tickets anymore (I don’t know any team that does).

Here is my most important tip for saving money on Braves tickets: sign up for the Braves’ ticket alert newsletter. The Braves will frequently send you a special offer or three, as well as info about giveaway nights and other benefits.

Perhaps more importantly, they’ll tell you when tickets go on sale; which is usually the best time to get tickets for high demand games. If you’re looking for tickets to a game against the Phillies in July, buying through the Braves on the day of sale will probably be cheapest. The Braves offer multi-game packs that include high demand games, so if you can go to a few games that could be a swell deal. Give away your extras as Christmas presents.

The Braves use dynamic pricing, which means that ticket prices rise and fall according to demand. In my experience, ticket prices don’t usually drop much, but they can often go up a fair bit. So that’s all the more reason to check your ticket alerts.

I’ll talk more about third party providers in a bit, but currently the Braves feature a link to SeatGeek on their tickets page, as their official reseller. The Braves sell premium seats to season ticket holders only (and there are a lot of premium seats), but you can usually find something on third party sites for single games.

Before you buy tickets on the Braves website, check their ticket specials. As I write this you can take advantage of Coca-Cola Wednesdays, Blue Moon weekdays, and the T-Mobile Value Pack. The Braves offer discounted tickets to military personnel and first responders, and it’s a great deal. Again, they will almost always let you know about these deals in their ticket alert newsletter.

Finally, one last piece of advice that’s pretty important. If you’re comparing ticket prices on the Braves site with third party sites, be sure to go all the way to the checkout screen and know what you’re really paying. You might find a better deal elsewhere when you add in the fees.

It wouldn’t hurt to follow the Braves on your favorite social media platform too, just saying.

How To Buy Cheap Braves Tickets, Tip #2) Using Third Party Sites.

Windows closed? Time for Plan B.

I mentioned the Braves linking to SeatGeek for resales on their tickets page. But you can usually find a similar selection of Braves tickets on other third party sites, including StubHub, Vivid Seats and several others.

Gametime is a favorite of Ballpark E-Guides (full disclosure: they’re an affiliate). In my experience, they offer slightly better deals than most. Gametime curates the best ticket deals for you, you can toggle “all-in” pricing to see the fees included the price, and they’re great for last minute tickets (a key tip I’ll talk about shortly).

Third party sites are your best chance at finding a single game ticket in the premium seats, like the Delta Sky 360, Xfinity Club or Chop House seats. Get access to that exclusive Chipper Jones lounge (no, he doesn’t hang out there). These are exclusive to season ticket holders, and few of them go to every game. If you search closer to game time, you might find a steal on Gametime.

For high demand games, say, a contest against the Yankees on a July weekend, hopefully you’ve bought tickets from the Braves in advance. Face value will still probably be your best bet, so try the Braves website first. If this is in your plans, it helps to plan ahead as much as possible.

If you’re looking for a better deal than what the Braves ask, you might have some luck searching around for low demand games. Try a weekday game in May against Colorado. Again, very important, with third party sites especially, go all the way to the checkout screen! (Usually that’s the screen that has a “Place Your Order” button or something similar.)

How To Buy Cheap Braves Tickets, Tip #3) Buying From Facebook Forums + Craigslist

In Atlanta, baseball fans look out for each other.

This is actually a little-known option to a lot of fans. There are Facebook groups where season ticket holders sell their extras to people…without the fees. Braves Ticket Marketplace is one, Atlanta Braves Ticket Exchange is another. You can also search for “braves tickets” or something similar on Facebook.

That said, there is some inherent risk with buying from a Facebook group. It is similar to Craigslist (or buying from scalpers back in the day, but there aren’t any of those anymore).

You probably won’t get scammed, and the moderators do their best to ensure no one does, but take some precautions. Find out as much as you can about the seller, and don’t go for an offer that looks too good to be true.

Buying from season ticket holders is your best bet for access to premium areas like the Chop House seats. Couldn’t hurt to look. In addition, season ticket holders, depending on their section, get all sorts of perks like parking passes, merch discounts, and access to climate-controlled clubs.

As far as Craigslist, A-List members sell their wares there too. I’ve written more about buying baseball tickets on Craigslist here. Again, there’s no guarantee in place there, so treat Craigslist sellers like scalpers; verify whatever you can.

How To Buy Cheap Braves Tickets, Tip #4) Get An Upgrade You!

Try it tomorrow, too!

I personally love this idea. Did you know that you can upgrade your seats once you’re in the ballpark? Yep…since you’re using the MLB Ballpark app to store your tickets anyway, you can level up on the app after buying a cheap ticket, and potentially save a bundle on the face price for much better seats.

I’ve read several accounts from Braves fans who scored sweet ticket deals doing this. That said, I wouldn’t expect to move from the 400 level to the Truist Club seats for 20 extra bucks. The Braves are smarter than that. But on a low demand night, grab the cheap seats and then see what’s out there once you get in.

I’m not sure that you’ll get access to the exclusive experience clubs, with complimentary food and drinks and all that (you can read about those on my Truist Park seating page), at least not for a small increase. But you can definitely improve your view cheaply with this if seats are available.

The Braves don’t specifically say when this ends during the game. I have read 15 minutes before first pitch. If you want to try it, go for it as soon as you check in at the ballpark.

Never drive to Truist Park Without A Plan…

Book your parking now with my friends at SpotHero!

How To Buy Cheap Braves Tickets, Tip #5) The Braves Box Office.

Your reference point. And maybe a nice pre-game spot.

Yes, as I write this sentence you can still go to the box office for your Braves tickets. The ticket windows are across from the Coca-Cola Roxy Theatre, in the Battery Atlanta.

This isn’t a bad option if you live or are near the ballpark. The Braves don’t charge fees when you buy tickets at the box office (the price of tickets might be slightly higher, but you’ll probably come out ahead). If you go early enough, you can park for free for a couple of hours in the nearby Red Deck, but you’ll have to move before the game unless you want to pay a hefty amount.

Unfortunately at the moment you can only buy tickets on game days; the Braves open their windows a few hours before the event. Hopefully they’ll change this policy in the future, but for now it’s game days only.

Keep in mind also that while you’re at the game, you can also get future game tickets at the windows inside. They close after the 6th inning. If you can land future game tickets at face without fees, score.

How To Buy Cheap Braves Tickets, Tip #6) Join The Kids Club.

When they have someone behind the sign, ask about it.

If you have little ones and are planning a Braves game, definitely make them members of the Braves Kids Club.

Membership currently is free (although that could change), and includes lots of nice stuff. You get a discount on tickets for Kids Club Sundays, and it also includes free games in Hope & Will’s Sandlot. Kids can also run the bases after the game on Kids Club Days, which you’ll want to get in line early for.

The Braves say that they’re working on a bigger and better Kids Club, so check back on this. In my experience, most teams’ Kids Clubs are well worth the cost. In the past paid memberships included a buy one get one ticket offer and some cool swag, so the Braves could bring that or a similar deal back at some point.

How To Buy Cheap Braves Tickets, Tip #7) Find Low Demand Games.

Hmmm, must be the Rockies tonight…

If all you want is to see a game, or if you’re a thrifty ballpark road tripper who just wants to visit Truist Park, it’s well worth the trouble to look for a low demand game. This, combined with waiting to buy your tickets and using third party sites like Gametime, can save you a bundle.

The Braves draw very well, since as I write this they offer a high-quality product. But they draw less on Monday through Wednesday, and they draw fewer fans in April, May, and September than they do in June, July and August. Once July hits, most games get close to sellouts, but weekday games might drop in attendance a bit.

The New York Yankees, Boston Red Sox, Los Angeles Dodgers, and Philadelphia Phillies bring in bigger numbers, and the recent resurgence in Baltimore has turned up new crowds of Orioles fans. If the Nationals are good, you’ll probably see larger crowds for that too. That said, the month and day of week matter more than the opponent.

April is the best month for low demand games if you can swing it. Weather wise in Atlanta, it shouldn’t be bad at all. Try for a weekday game against another team than who I’ve listed here.

How To Buy Cheap Braves Tickets, Tip #8) Wait Until The Last Minute, Maybe.

Don’t get shut out of the ballpark, just saying.

One of the reasons I suggest Gametime for your third party tickets is that they’re great for last minute tickets, and in some cases you can score a sweet deal even after the game starts. I know, I don’t like missing baseball, but it’s a great option if you’re already late.

Waiting until the last minute can work well for low demand games. If you are searching for two tickets to a May game against Oakland, there can be some precipitous price drops some hours before the game, including for the high end tickets.

This is, however, a strategy for games that aren’t that important to you. I wouldn’t try it for a specific game you want, weekend contests in July, or if I was going with more than two people. But for one or two tickets, there’s often great opportunities for deals as people get desperate to unload their extras. You could find something at half the price or less than what the Braves ask for it.

If you want to see this for yourself, check Gametime a few times, and compare their prices to the Braves website just before first pitch. You can get an idea of this phenomenon in action.

How To Buy Cheap Braves Tickets, Tip #9) Use The Atlanta Weather.

In July, a lot of those seats in the sun could be available.

Speaking of the weather, it’s a genuine factor in your enjoyment of a game at Truist Park. There’s a reason for that big roof over the 400 level seats. Finding shade can be a big factor in choosing your seat here.

You can, though, use this to your advantage. If it’s a sweltering day, people with tickets in the outfield seats, seats on the third base side of the field, and maybe even premium seats, might decide to enjoy the game in the comfort of their homes instead. Team spirit has its limits everywhere.

So if the weather doesn’t seem to be conducive to enjoying baseball, have a look at resale ticket prices on Gametime. You might score a steal. The Braves draw well even in the Atlanta summer heat, but plenty of people complain about it too.

Remember that if you do land a premium seat, that you’ll have access to some sort of climate-controlled area where you can duck out of the elements. If not, you could also try the upgrade option.

How To Buy Cheap Braves Tickets, Tip #10) Bring Your Friends.

“Come on, we’ll all fit in my truck!”

If you live in the Atlanta area, you may know someone who’s put together a group of people for a Braves game. So you know, that’s a smart fan. (And a pretty cool person, of course.) You have to plan well ahead for this for the best deals, so start looking for 19 other fans to go now.

For just regular seats, the Braves give a discount on tickets, and the higher the ticket price, the bigger the discount. The real benefit though is no per-ticket fees…the Braves charge one single fee for your order, as opposed to per-ticket fees. That’s a big savings with a larger group if you can swing it.

Truist Park also has multiple options for gathering spaces to watch games. (I will post about that someday.) Have your group sit under the Chop House, at the Hank Aaron Terrace, or on a Rooftop patio. And incidentally, some of these spots are pretty sweet.

If you organize a gathering, the Braves might throw in added concessions value, play tokens for the kids, discounted parking passes, stuff like that. You can find out more about your options here. If you like enough people that you work with to spend a night at the game, it’s a great way to save a few bucks on your own tickets.

How To Buy Cheap Braves Tickets, Tip #11) Help The Community.

Look for the Braves’ Giving Gazebo!

If you have a few moments sometime, have a look at the Braves Community page. If nothing else, you’ll learn about blood drives at the ballpark, 5K runs, and other things you can participate in to help your Atlanta area neighbors.

But on occasion, the Braves offer tickets for certain things. As I write this, the team is featuring special days for breast cancer and prostate cancer awareness, and for both games cancer survivors get a free ticket and t-shirt, and their family members get ticket discounts. If you know a breast cancer survivor, they deserve a Braves game.

For another example, right now you can nominate a hero you know for four free tickets to a game through the Braves’ “Dream Seats”. Which is worth doing anyway, so summon some skills. Not that you should do it just so they’ll take you with them, but they probably would.

I won’t say you’ll often find free or cheap ticket opportunities with this, but it doesn’t hurt to look through the Community page, or sign up for the Braves Community newsletter. You may find an opportunity to help your fellow human, and enjoy a game cheaply doing it. Underrated tip, in my opinion.

How To Buy Cheap Braves Tickets, Tip #12) When All Else Fails…Use The Cheap Seats

“HE MISSED THE TAG!!”

Well, finally, I know this isn’t a money-saving tip per se, but there are a large amount of seats at Truist Park that are in the price range of tightwads like me. The cheaper sections are the 400 level, the outer edges of the 300 level, and Coca-Cola Corner seats. These start at a very low price, and buying through the box office without the fees makes for cheap Braves tickets. Remember, the Braves sell tickets during games until the sixth inning.

You can find out more information about the cheap seats in my comprehensive Truist Park seating guide, but just for the record…the 400 level seats are almost entirely covered by the roof, so shade won’t be something you’ll worry about, which is nice. The left field corner of the 400 level is general admission, and they’re the cheapest seats in the ballpark.

If the game isn’t well attended, you should be able to improve your position a little bit, especially if there are only one or two of you. In the 300 and 400 levels especially, ushers aren’t terribly tough, and you can at least look for something in the shade.

And there’s always the upgrade opportunity, which could net you a great seat for a fraction of the cost!

I’m covering most everything on the Atlanta Braves seating chart here (except group spaces and party suites…that’s for another post). This post tells you what to expect with premium seating, what makes Chop House seats special, where you can find shade from the Atlanta sun, and much more.

There’s a lot to go through here, so I’ve broken it down for you:

(See why Ballpark E-Guides loves Gametime here!)

Truist Park Seating Tips, Part 1) The Best Seats at Truist Park – Premium Seating.

The Truist Club Seats. Where you pay more because you can.

The first and second levels (100-200) between the bases is all premium seating at Truist Park. This is how the Braves afford great players. If this is too rich for your blood, skip to the 100 section.

Truist Club Seats are the best seats in Truist Park, and are priced accordingly, for multiple reasons. These are the lowest sections directly behind home plate, with just nine rows of 23” wide, cushioned seats, and…get this…TVs to watch the game on.

Seats include a countertop for your food, which you can order from in-seat service. The menu in the very high end Truist Club lounge includes a carving station, charcuterie, etc. Complimentary alcoholic drinks at full-service bars too. All the modern amenities to remind you that you’ve made it enough to ridiculously overpay for live baseball.

You also get complimentary valet parking in the convenient Orange Deck (no small thing here), a private entrance (short lines!), and access to the Delta Sky360 Club. We’ll talk about that in a minute.

Sure, there’s no obvious difference when you can’t see the TV sets.

Chairman’s Seats are the sections directly behind the Truist Club seats, and are almost equally desirable. These are great seats too; they’re wide and cushioned and a bit more elevated. They include everything that goes with the Truist Club seats, except the TV at your seat and access to the Truist Club. You can stare at people entering the Truist Club wistfully and hope someday you won’t be a nobody anymore.

The seats in the back are just as comfortable.

Executive Seats are directly behind the Chairman’s seats, completing the 100 section around home plate. Again, these are wide and cushioned seats with in-seat wait service, and access to the Delta Sky360 Club Lounge. The only difference is no valet parking, just a pass to a premium lot. This saves you a few bucks tipping the driver, you financial wizard you!

Sections 122 and 130 now have multiple tables, where you can place your stuff and watch the game.

It’s baseball…let’s get swanky!

So, now about this Delta Sky 360 Club Lounge access included with these seats. It’s, we’ll just say, sweet…bring your appetite. Ticket holders get endless inclusive food prepared by executive chefs…stations everywhere with pizza, tacos, nachos, sliders, chili dogs, salads, you get it. Complimentary beer and wine (the Truist Club includes hard liquor, but the Delta Lounge charges for it). And of course, lots of dessert items to save room for.

Needless to say, the club is climate-controlled, and there are TVs everywhere to watch the game. And you can check out great Braves history throughout the club, awards on display and such.

All of these premium sections include access to the Xfinity Club on the 200 level as well.

If you’ve never sat in mesh seats at a ballgame before, you really should.

Dugout Seats are the front sections on the field level, past the premium seats. They extend to the corners in three price ranges. Dugout seats are, literally, very cool…they are made with a comfortable mesh fabric, so it’s kind of like you’re sitting in a hammock. They’re cooler on warmer game days, which Atlanta has a few of. There’s also fewer seats per row here than usual.

You get a small concessions credit, and access to the Dugout Lounges near the outfield corners. These are climate-controlled spaces with drinks and complimentary snacks. Chipper’s Lounge on the third base side features memorabilia from the great Chipper Jones himself. Needless to say, the seats offer the closest views without the extensive “look rich” fee.

No, they aren’t reserved for Xfinity customers.

Finally, (whew!) the Xfinity Club seats and tables are on the 200 level, again the full sections between the bases. These seats have that nice bird’s eye view, and include access to the large (and climate-controlled of course) Xfinity Club behind you. Enjoy some complimentary popcorn or peanuts, and use your $15 concession credit towards a drink at one of the full service bars.

The Xfinity Club isn’t as lavish as the Delta or Truist Clubs. Food and booze isn’t complimentary. But they have a variety of decent food options there, including Mr. B’s Bourbon, and it’s a great space to duck out of the elements. That and the padded seats are worth the few extra bucks.

“Have a seat here, we’ll discuss financing for your tickets.”

So, how do you get the finest Braves seats with access to exclusive clubs? Well, from the Braves, you need an A-List Membership, which I presume includes going to multiple games. Perhaps you can persuade your employer on the numerous benefits of live Braves baseball.

For single game tickets from the Braves, you might find Dugout Club seats, but little else. If you want to go third party and see what’s out there, you can, but good luck. They aren’t cheap. Try waiting till the last minute, or get a cheap ticket and look for an upgrade from the Ballpark mobile app when you get there. Couldn’t hurt to try.

Sometime soon I’ll post knowledge about finding cheap Braves tickets, so stay tuned; maybe I can help you with the premium stuff.

Truist Park Seating Tips, Part 2) The Chop House Seats.

The Braves know how to make seats better.

The seats in front of the Chop House restaurant in right field are still premium seats of sorts. But I gave them a separate section, because they’re very popular among Braves-loving faithful.

The Chop House Deck is a multi-terraced section beyond the right field fence, featuring the Chop House restaurant itself. Some sections, like the Below The Chop area, are held mostly for groups. But you can go third party for Chop House Deck seats.

The view isn’t the best by premium seats standards, but there’s a lot of cool amenities. For one, the seats are bar-style with backs, made with that comfortable mesh. There’s a table in front of you for your food and drinks…which you can order from your seat. There’s even refrigerated cup holders! If anything is worth a premium price, it’s keeping your beer cold in Atlanta.

Because you’re going to have cups.

Not done…there’s phone chargers near each seat, and tickets include a parking pass and a concessions credit…which you can use at Fox Bros. BBQ or H&F Burgers nearby, which are true grub staples here. And of course, the Chop House restaurant is right behind you.

Like I said, these seats are very popular (much like they were at Turner Field), and the area gets crowded. Get here early for a good spot; tables are first come first served. It might not be the best spot for families, since it’s a drinking and socializing type of spot and the sun can be rough.

Again, this is a premium Braves experience, and are season tickets only, so if you want to try it, try checking Gametime close to game time.

Truist Park Seating Tips, Part 3) Field Level Seating (100 Level).

The people closer to the shade might be the smarter ones.

So, as we’ve discussed, much of the field level seating is premium seats, but there are sections for the rest of us. Seats behind the Dugout seats down the lines are called Diamond seats, and are in three pricing tiers based on distance from home plate.

These seats offer value in being closer to the field; as you get higher in levels seats are significantly further from home plate. This is especially true in corner sections, something to consider if you want to be close to the action.

I’ll discuss finding shade more later, but since people care about covered seating: seats covered by the overhang usually start around rows 8-10. If you get into row 15 or higher, though, the overhang could block your view of the Big Board, especially on the third base side. (Incidentally, this is only a problem on the 100 level.)

You might not have a cup holder, but we’ll see who’s laughing when the rain starts!

If you’re going somewhat economical, the right field corner sections aren’t bad…they’re mostly covered for shade, are angled towards the field, and close to the kids’ area and several great eating spots. Keep in mind they’ll still be behind the Dugout sections. Left field corner is more in the sun and not as good.

So overall on the Field Level, go for first base side over third base side, as per every Braves fan who offers opinions online. Besides better shade, the Braves Monument Garden is on the first base side concourse, and it’s a must visit spot for any baseball fan.

Truist Park Seating Tips, Part 4) Terrace Level Seating (200 Level).

Not bad, as far as seats for the rest of us go.

Like the 100 Level seats, on the Terrace 200 Level all the seats between the bases are premium seats, Xfinity Club in this case. But beyond that, everything is available to the public, save for Hank Aaron Terrace seats overlooking left field, which are reserved for groups.

It’s debatable whether 200 level “Lexus” seats are worth the higher price than the 300 level seats just above them, especially for sitting between the bases. They’re lower, but the view isn’t significantly better, and the concessions choices are actually inferior, what with the Xfinity club and suites taking up so much of the concourse.

They are cheaper than the Chop House though. Just saying.

At my first game at Truist, I had seats in the right field corner; in my opinion those sections are too far from the field for 2nd-deck seats. They were further than I expected, anyway. I would get as close to home plate as possible. The corner seats are angled towards the field, which is nice.

Not totally denigrating the 200 level; some fans consider the Terrace level to be the best value for seats at Truist Park. The rows numbered about 14 and higher are covered by the overhang, but never enough to lose the view of the Big Board. Closer to home plate it’s a nice bird’s eye view.

I read a complaint from one fan about the speakers being placed just above the higher rows, and the resulting noise level. I haven’t experienced this at Truist, but I have elsewhere, and I agree it can be grating. Something to keep in mind.

Truist Park Seating Tips, Part 5) Vista Level Seating (300 Level).

Not much higher or further back, and much cheaper. I personally never cared for Xfinity anyway.

As stated, I’ve read accounts from people that believe Vista Level seating is a better deal than Terrace Level. For the price, you get a nice view of pretty much everything, including the Big Board. Vista Level is also the best deal to sit behind home plate without spending triple digits; scrap the upscale food options and spend your money in the Battery Atlanta. Seats are higher and further back though, and it gets close to acrophobia level here.

Some caveats: the 300 level has less overhang covering (about the last three rows are covered), so check out my shade tips if that matters. One fan also said to avoid the lowest rows, because of the slightly annoying railing/plexiglass obstruction. Again, as you get to the corners, seats are pretty far from the action, but at this price you likely won’t complain.

See that little opening there with the sunlight? Take note of that.

For another opportunity to stay cool (take what you can get here), try Vista Reserved sections just beyond the bases, Sections 315-317 or 335-339. One nice Reddit poster pointed out that these seats get frequent breezes from the open areas behind them. Needless to say, it works the other way on a cold night. 315-317 past first base is better.

Finally, the upper deck concourse can be tough to navigate up here, accommodating both 300 and 400 level fans. On a sold out night, I’d get food and drinks beforehand if at all possible.

All that said, 300 level seats at Truist are a pretty good value…especially being cheaper than outfield seats in most cases. They do go fast though, so plan ahead for high demand games.

Who knew that simply offering a free Coke could draw so many fans!

The Coca-Cola Corner is on the Vista Level in left field. Like the Chop House, this is a carry-over of sorts from Turner Field, although it doesn’t include fun stuff for kids. These seats are as far from home plate as can be and feature zero shade, but they do include a 20 oz. Coca-Cola beverage for your trouble.

There is a big huge chair and huge Coke bottles behind this section for photo-ops. Bathrooms right there as well. You might enjoy the nice elevated view of the buildings around the ballpark. The seats are cheap, but remember the distance, limited view of the Big Board, and lack of shade. You’ll need that complimentary Coke.

Truist Park Seating Tips, Part 6) Cheap Seats at Truist Park – Grandstand Level and General Admission (400 Level).

When you go to a game in July, you’ll understand the big roof.

The Grandstand Level seats are way up there, and are the most affordable seats for Braves games. The cheapest seats in Truist Park are the five general admission sections in the left field corner…super economical, first come first serve seats.

There are actually some nice benefits to sitting in the top level here, if you can handle the acrophobia. For one, nearly all the Grandstand seats are covered by the extensive roof, for much needed protection from the elements. The upper concourse also seems to offer better food selection than the 200 level, much of which is the Xfinity Club.

That said, there are disadvantages too…and reasons the Grandstand seats are so cheap. The biggest challenge is simply getting to them…from the 300 concourse, you have to climb up steps past duct work and HVAC equipment to get there. It’s odd.

In addition, the sections themselves aren’t quite steep enough to prevent partially blocked views from tall people in front of you. Like on the 300 level, the plexiglass railings can be an annoyance in the first couple of rows too.

Yep, this is the 400 level concourse.

Still, if you’re able-bodied enough to handle it and don’t mind the nosebleed level, Grandstand can be a great deal, especially behind home plate. I enjoy panoramic ballpark views. 400 seats are super cheap, covered by the roof, and even offer a nice breeze in the top rows.

If you’re doing General Admission, get there early to snag a good spot. Especially for high attendance nights. If it’s a low attendance night, you can probably improve your lie to a lower section or closer to behind home plate in later innings.

Both the 300 and 400 levels access the same concourse, and there’s a rooftop patio in the right field corner. Views of the action aren’t great from the patio, but the panoramic view there is pretty sweet.

Truist Park Seating Tips, Part 7) Outfield (Home Run Porch) Seats.

See anyone without a hat? Just saying.

The Braves call the outfield seats the “Home Run Porch”. Presumably they hope fans forget their infinitesimally small chances of catching a Braves home run ball. All the outfield seats are on the 100 Level.

There are multiple reasons not to sit in the outfield at Truist Park. For one, most of the seats, except in the upper rows of left field, are out in the Atlanta sun. All day, and often well into the evening with the sun directly in your eyes in left field seats at sunset.

Another flaw of the Home Run Porch is in the far right field sections. Upper rows especially can lose quite a bit of the field to the Chop House fence. On top of that, you have to crane your neck to view the impressive Big Board scoreboard, if you can see it at all.

Yes, that is the Braves bullpen. No, pitchers won’t friend you on Facebook.

So there’s three strikes against outfield seating. Any good reasons to sit there? Well, the Braves bullpen is in front of Sections 152-153, and the visitors’ bullpen is in front of Sections 144-145. If you want to offer encouragement to Braves relievers or hassle Phillies relievers, there’s your chance. In addition, most of Sections 144-146 are covered by the Hank Aaron Terrace seats, so there’s some shade. No view of the Big Board there though.

The outfield seats are also close to Hope & Will’s Sandlot in the right field concourse, which is a very cool play area, so if you’re bringing the kids you could do worse. However, I would go for right field corner before outfield seats in this case, where you’ll see more shade.

That’s another thing, though: the kids’ area is a concourse bottleneck and makes it difficult to pass through if you want a beer at the Terrapin Taproom. Another reason to avoid outfield seats if you’re not bringing kids.

Interestingly enough, while they are cheaper than most tickets here, outfield seats are more expensive than most of the 300-400 level seats. Which is baffling to me for the reasons I just described, but I’m not a billionaire sports team owner. Unless you’re cheap and acrophobic, or just want to be close to the field cheaply, you can do better than outfield seats at Truist Park.

Truist Park Seating Tips, Part 8) Standing Room Advice.

Yes, you can stand here! Shade and everything! Just no view of the Big Board.

The Braves will make a handful of standing room tickets available for sold out games, which are somewhat frequent in this town. Standing room is a great deal if you just want to get into the ballpark. Where you can stand depends on your taste, but here’s some ideas.

The Top of The Chop at the Chop House is a popular standing spot with younger folks; if you’re early enough you can stake out a good place to stand. You’ll need someone to get your food or drinks or hold that good spot though. You can take turns ducking out of the elements in the restaurant itself, and if no one is renting out the Deck (unlikely), you can stand there.

But if that’s not an optimal viewpoint, there’s plenty of great spots throughout the 100 level. The 100 level has railings everywhere for your drinks and food. Better yet, the infield SRO areas are mostly in the shade, and there are huge concourse fans blowing air around. You won’t likely see the Big Board with the overhang, but you could do worse. Remember what I said about the right field concourse, though…try to avoid going through it for food or answering nature’s call.

About 500 feet from home plate, but railings, barstools, and a view of the Big Board.

The 200 level has standing room space where the bases are and beyond, but there’s no place to rest your drink or elbows. Not really a good spot. On the 300 level in right field, there is the aforementioned rooftop patio, which while far from the field is fun in its own way and close to drinks. The patio includes some chairs along the railing, so you might even find a place to sit.

As of 2024, the Braves no longer offer a Ballpark Pass with a month’s worth of standing room tickets. If that changes, let me know and I’ll update this.

Truist Park Seating Tips, Part 9) Where To Find Shade at a Braves Game.

This picture makes it pretty clear. But there’s more.

It being an outdoor venue in Atlanta, finding shade at Truist Park is super important. I probably should led off with this part, but here’s some tips for how to stay out of the sun:

First, Truist Park is shaped as such so that the first base side sees shade for night games far sooner than the third base side and the outfield. Most any frequent visitor to Truist will tell you the importance of this. Not only will you be baking on the third base side and outfield during early innings, the sun will likely be in your eyes as well. Always go first base side for shade.

Second, surprisingly, nearly all of the premium seating is uncovered and unprotected by the sun. As I’ve said, the Dugout Club seats are made of a cooler mesh, but those leather seats in the high end clubs probably aren’t ideal in the heat. That said, you have climate-controlled club access, so you can always escape the oven there.

The upper 100 sections and 400 sections offer the best coverage.

Third, as I’ve described, there are overhangs and roofs that do offer quite a bit of protection from the sun. On the 400 level especially, nearly all of the seats are covered. You should be fine regardless of the time of day. In the 100 level, rows 10 and higher are usually covered, but remember the highest rows can lose the Big Board. On the 200 and 300 levels, you have to go to nearly the top rows for protection during the day.

Finally, for shade in afternoon games, avoid the third base side and outfield entirely. The sun will grow progressively worse there through the game. Stay on the first base side, and try to find something under an overhang. This is easier in 100 or 400 than it is in 200 or 300.

Bring a hat, sunglasses and sunscreen if you can’t manage a shady seat.

Truist Park Seating Tips, Part 10) Truist Park Accessible Seating.

No breakdancing on the aisle steps.

You can find out more about what the Braves offer for handicapped seating on this page, but let me just briefly offer a summary.

The Braves have designated accessible seating throughout the 100, 200, and 300 levels, including behind the Truist Club and Chairman’s Club seats. Accessible seating is at the top end of sections. On the Truist Park seating chart, you can see the wheelchair logo at designated sections if you squint. There’s plenty of spaces, and most all of them offer decent views.

Yes, you will almost certainly be in the shade.

Many of the sections behind the 100 level will be under the overhang. You’ll be in shade but could miss the Big Board. If that matters and you don’t mind being higher, you can take an elevator to the 200 or 300 levels.

The team has a dedicated phone number and email address (accessibleservices@braves.com) for info about these sections. Contact them and let them know what you need; they can accommodate groups as well. The Braves also have wheelchair attendants and service, and they will let you use any wheelchairs they have for the game.

When you’re buying tickets through the Braves website, you can filter out “accessible seating”.

Truist Park Seating Tips, Part 11) A Few More Notes.

OKAY, I know where the general admission shaded overhang bullpen club chop seats are! What the heck else do I need?

Yes, believe it or not, I have a few more tips to share with you about Truist Park seating…

There really isn’t much to see outside the ballpark from the seating bowl except a couple of tall buildings. Don’t expect a great view of downtown Atlanta; Camden Yards or PNC Park this is not. The huge Braves “A” towering over right field is kind of cool, but not worth getting a special ticket for.

I don’t encourage seat poaching, but in the 300-400 levels especially, you should be easily able to move somewhere closer to home plate or somewhere in the shade, especially after a few innings. It’s tougher on the lower levels, where ushers are (probably rightly) more strict.

Just wanted to remind you about the Dugout Club mesh seats.

The Atlanta Braves dugout is on the first base side, in front of Sections 16-21. The visiting team dugout is on the third base side, in front of Sections 31-35. The Braves bullpen is in front of Sections 152-153 in right field; the visitors’ bullpen is in front of Sections 144-145 at the left field foul pole.

Facing the field, seat numbers always start with seat 1 on the right.

Finally, the Braves feature an outstanding Virtual Venue page on their site, where you can literally select almost any section in the ballpark and see a 360-degree view from that seat, including general shade. You can even compare two seating sections. It’s a bit wonky trying to move your view around, but it’s well worth using.

You should be able to pick one now. Hope this helps.

Okay, did you get all that? Sorry if I went a little long. But hopefully, you have all the info you need. Now you can make an informed seating choice for your next baseball game at the home of the Atlanta Braves. Or any upcoming events. Remember, stay in the shade!
