Fenway Park

Fenway Park

Fenway Park is the legendary home to the Boston Red Sox and first opened its gates to the public on April 20, 1912. Fenway Park is synonymous with the great baseball players of our time such as Cy Young, Duffy Lewis, Harry Hopper, Joe Cronin and perhaps the most well known  of all, Ted Williams. Fenway Park hosted its first professional baseball game on the day it opened.  Two days of rain delay was getting everyone up in arms. They wanted to see a baseball game and couldn’t wait for it! Though the actual first official game in Fenway Park occurred just 11 days before, no one took much notice because of the sinking of the Titanic a few days before the big event.


Fenway Park Boston saw its first tragedy on May 8, 1926 just 14 years after it had first opened. A fire broke out and consumed the bleachers that ran along left field. At that time the bleachers never got replaced The owner at the time, John Quinn had what little was left of the bleachers hauled out of the stadium and never rebuilt them. Fenway Park Boston was purchased by a new owner in 1933 and a  major overhaul took place until a second fire desecrated the stadium over 5 hours. Little was left standing. Since then  Fenway Park Boston has enjoyed some restructuring and today it sits proudly remaining the home of the favored Boston Red Sox.


 From standing room to coveted dug-out seats Fenway Park tickets run the gamut from $12 all the way over $300. There are numerous Fenway Park tickets available depending on which seats are preferred. The dug-out boxes run right along the field, pavilion boxes are behind those, and one row further back are the right field roof boxes. The bleachers sit at the opposite side while to the left of those are the right field regular boxes. There are a numerous assortment of other seats in the stadium to choose from.


 Things to do at the stadium don’t stop at baseball. Fenway Park tickets are not only sold for baseball games but also for other events such as festivals, concerts and other celebrations. Fenway Park hosts events in its assorted facilities, including dining, all year long. Inside the famous building there’s the Absolut Clubhouse, the EMC Club restaurant serving 5 star cuisine, the Budweiser Right Field Roof, luxury suites with full views of the playing field and more


 This year Fenway Park tickets are being sold for the annual Life is Good Summer Festival and for the vibrant Latino festival. Fenway Park is located in the heart of Boston and can be reached by car, commuter rail, subway, bus and shuttle service. The Red Sox try to encourage fans to use public transportation as often as possible.
