PNC Park

About
Overlooking the Pittsburgh skyline from across the Allegheny River, this state-of-the-art ballpark is the home of the Pittsburgh Pirates. See the Pirates play between April and early October and take a seat behind home plate to take in the commanding views of the city. Grab a few hot dogs or pick between other delicious snacks from the concessions. Before you leave, don’t skip a visit to the gift shop.
PNC Park can be reached from the city center easily via the subway. You can also visit other Pittsburgh landmarks like the Andy Warhol Museum afterward.

- PhotogeniusWashington DC, District of Columbia86 contributionsGreatGreat park, great food and great views. Easy access via T, and walking distance also. The park is well-designed and the mobile ordering process is fast and well-designed. Definitely recommend!Visited April 2023Travelled with familyWritten April 10, 2023
- DouMauVirginia Beach, Virginia109 contributionsLast minute decision between Penguins Fan Appreciation night or Pirates game? Great decision!What a beautiful baseball park! Walked up to ticket window with no knowledge of sections of prices. The guy at the window was an exasperated fast talking Yinzer, who I believe, wanted to close his window. I said, “behind Astros dugout.” and he said, “$81.” Great! I get out my card to swipe and he says, “$162.” My Son’s 1st MLB game, I thought , “oh well. Just do it!” Game had already started, we walk into a home run coming right at us. We walk around the stadium to our seats and we are 4 rows behind the Astros dugout. Sec 12, row J, seats 3,4. Excellent seats and well worth the price. The game was a thriller won by the Pirates in the bottom of the 9th. Great memories made with my Son.Visited April 2023Travelled with familyWritten April 19, 2023
- TheTravelGirl525182 contributionsBest ballpark in AMERICA (maybe the world)!I have reviewed PNC Park before, but it is worth an update after our recent visit. This park just gets better and better. They have made several updates for the 2023 season and all of them were outstanding. First - the food! Deli dogs is a must-visit.....the Reuben dog was delicious. Nachorita serves huge servings with fresh and yummy toppings. And, the Fathead brewery bar has THE BEST beers. The updated outfield viewing areas are perfect and make you feel like you are right in the action. Of course the skyline views are amazing, but being in this ballpark is such a great experience. It is so clean and easy to walk around.Visited April 2023Written April 25, 2023
- ElvisAndrusArlington, Texas815 contributionsGreat place to see a gameI don't think there is a ballpark with a view of the skyline that can match this. Lots of history in the park, celebrating days gone by. Good variety in the concessions,,, highlighted by Manny's Barbecue! It was very sunny so few people were in the seats they paid for and I kind of pushed myself against the pressbox and was more than comfortable. Great place to see a game. Not a lot of PNC moments to think of but everything else was there.Visited April 2023Written May 1, 2023
- Aud E146 contributionsOne of the top ballparksI’m on a ballpark tour. I’ve been to 15 or so and this ranks as one of the best. The fan experiences are great. The park is small in feel but large in reality. If you sit behind home plate or the upper levels you have an amazing view. The food was excellent and reasonably priced in my opinion.Visited May 2023Travelled with friendsWritten May 22, 2023
- Judy R1 contributionA fabulous 4 days with family in Pittsburgh!Pittsburgh didn’t disappoint! Did a walking tour of beautiful downtown & took in all the unique & beautiful architecture. Walking the Strip & enjoying the interesting shops was so much fun. Great experience watching Toronto Blue Jays & Pittsburgh Pirates at their fantastic renovated PNC Stadium on the river. The many bridges crossing the rivers are a must see! A fabulous We didn’t miss taking the Duquesne Incline to further enjoy the spectacular view. Restaurants were fantastic! Recommend Gaucho Argentina & DiAnoia’d Eatery.Visited May 2023Written May 29, 2023
- Alicia_JA309 contributionsBeautiful Park in a Historic CityThe ballpark is gorgeous. There are few other MLB fields that have such a beautiful location, especially in the heart of a historic city. PNC is cashless, so go prepared with a credit card. The food was decent and there was a good mix of options to choose from. The pro shop is large and the prices are reasonable. There are also lots of good photo ops around the park. The area around PNC has really been developed and cleaned up.Visited May 2023Travelled as a coupleWritten May 30, 2023
- Hillier86Bangor, Maine47 contributionsFantastic Ball ParkStop 1 on our 3 park BallPark summer vacation and this park didn't disappoint. We did a ballpark tour the morning before the game and our tour guide was fantastic. He was very knowledgable and we loved seeing different areas and hearing about the history. It was just my husband and I, but I loved all the activites they had for kids.Visited June 2023Written June 24, 2023
- DALC140 contributionsLove this park!Love this park! Easy to navigate, our seats were wonderful and so reasonably priced (compared to our hometown). Food and drink choices were good; prices similar to other parks. Restrooms were clean and plentiful. Our walk here from/to our hotel (Hampton Inn) was pretty easy. Took the Andy Warhol bridge as the Roberto Clemente bridge was closed for repairs.Visited June 2023Travelled as a coupleWritten June 29, 2023
- Jamie OMadison, Ohio68 contributionsGuardians gameVery pretty park. Lots of things for kids to do before the game. Lots of food choices. Wasn't crazy about having to tip the vendors when buying drinks. Almost feel obligated to since it comes up on the scanner they hand you.Visited July 2023Written July 20, 2023

Most of the tours are guided here but we arrived between the official tours and were able to do some exploration ourselves. It is a beautiful venue with good visibility from every direction and angle. It is a very friendly gesture that they allow visitors !
While in Pittsburgh we stayed in Residence Inn next door with excellent view of the PNC Park.

Really enjoyed the staging. The view of downtown was super. Too bad restaurants were so booked and the one we found seats was out of most of their dishes.

Not only do you to watch the great game of baseball in a great baseball city but you get to do it in maybe the best place to watch a baseball game in the country. My wife and I are Yankee fans so we like to combine watching them play with a little sightseeing and we were both blown away by PNC. Plenty of food options but the best may be Manny's along the centerfield concourse. I think it's one of the top 3 food options in all of baseball and you may get lucky enough to mee the man himself, Manny Sanguillen. Seats along the 3rd base line have one of the best views in baseball. The Pittsburgh skyline is very pretty in the day or night. If you're in town and you're a baseball fan give PNC a visit.

The blonde girl at the bar told my wife that she was weird for asking for quarters because she’s needed a tampon which made her feeling awful. What a bad employee. Digesting. I know who. Thank you.

Fans and employees were very civil and pleasant to be around.
$15 dollar beer!!!! One and done for sure. Didn't eat the overpriced food either. Otherwise, the view, atmosphere and fan-experience was cool.
Too expensive overall for frequent trips, every other year or more works.

Went to a Pirates game as part of a week long conference and was pleasantly surprised. The park is beautiful with an array of eateries and shops.
The highlight of my trip was taking a photo with the iconic Roberto Clemente statue and being able to purchase some Clemente swag to take back to my mom.

Great park! We sat behind home plate in the upper deck and had the best view of the city! It was Star Wars night and the characters were there interacting with the fans. And the pierogi race was hilarous!

Where is section 115, row GG and what entrance do you use to enter
Larry C
Pittsburgh, PA95 contributions
The entrance to this beautiful park is very easy to find. I would go to the federal side street to enter the park that way once you’re in the ushers can get you going to what seats you have. Enjoy the game and enjoy the number one stadium in the baseball league

What are the seats like? we’re going to a concert next year (if all this mess clears up) and one of my family members is overweight. I want to make sure they won’t be miserable . for reference Sec 127, Row S, Seat 1 - 2. they’d be sitting on an aisle.

I don’t know what overweight means in your eyes, but I’m 6’2” and weight about 240. I had no issue with the seats. Being taller I wish there was another 4-6”, if I had another 20lns in me I’m not sure I would have been comfortable.

Hi, I want to go see a game in July with my husband. We have a 6 month infant, will the baby need a ticket even though he will be in our lap?

We took our 18 month old granddaughter. She sat on one of ours, or her parents lap. It was fine. She didn’t need a ticket.

We parked in the Stadium Parking Lot (paid) and did not have any problems with parking or leaving the stadium.

Is it possible to arrange a tour of the stadium?
kes1639
Hot Springs Village, AR1,179 contributions
Yes they have tours of the stadium. Go to the PNC web site. The tours vary whether there is a home game or not. If they are not playing, then you get to see the locker room. Purchase tickets a head of time. We did the tour and found it very informative and got to go on the actual field.
I am going to the Pittsburgh verses Atlanta game there on the 4th I was wo during if they offer face painting there.

Pittsburgh, PA19 contributions
If you choose an afternoon game on a hot summer day and you want sun, then choose 3rd base or left field. If you want shade, then choose 1st base. Other than that, I would think it would depend on your travel plans. Night game and planning to stay overnight, there are quite a few hotels now near the ballpark.

Stay at the Holiday Inn Express that is located across the street from the park. Great spot and you walk everywhere. However, you will have to pay $24 a day to park but still worth the price.
