Why you should visit Coors Field.
Coors Field is more than just a baseball stadium — it’s a slice of Denver culture. Home to the Colorado Rockies, the ballpark offers unbeatable views of the game and, beyond the outfield, the Rocky Mountains themselves. Even if you’re not a huge baseball fan, the lively atmosphere and scenic backdrop make it worth the trip.
On game days, you’ll find fans spilling into the surrounding LoDo neighborhood before and after first pitch. The smell of ballpark snacks fills the air, and the crack of the bat is punctuated by cheers that can be heard blocks away. It’s an experience that blends sport, community, and city pride.
What you didn’t know about Coors Field.
With a highlighted row of seats sitting at an elevation of exactly 5,280 feet, Coors Field is the highest stadium in Major League Baseball. The thin mountain air means balls travel farther here — making it famous for high-scoring games and towering home runs. In 2002, ownership built the “humidor” — which is essentially a humidity refrigerator where baseballs soak before game time — in effort to equalize the batter’s advantage of the ball traveling much farther at high altitudes.
The park also boasts one of the largest outfields in the league, along with unique features like a row of purple seats marking exactly one mile above sea level. There’s even a craft beer bar and rooftop deck with panoramic city views for fans who prefer sipping to cheering.
How to fold Coors Field into your Denver trip.
If you’re visiting during baseball season, check the Rockies’ home schedule and snag tickets in advance — afternoon games offer especially stunning mountain views as the sun sets. Arrive early to explore the surrounding LoDo district, full of restaurants, breweries, and shops.
Not in town for a game? Coors Field offers guided tours year-round. You’ll walk the dugouts, see behind-the-scenes areas, and learn fun facts about the stadium’s history and architecture.
