Target Field — Attraction in Minneapolis

Target Field, in downtown Minneapolis, stands as a testament to modern ballpark while honoring Minnesota's rich baseball heritage. Since opening its gates in 2010, this stadium has become a cultural icon and gathering place for locals and visitors alike.

The story of Target Field began as a quest to replace the outdated Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome, the former home of the Minnesota Twins. The push for a new stadium gained momentum in the early 2000s.

Construction began in 2007 and officially opened on April 12, 2010. The stadium has capacity of over 39,000 seats, designed to maximize views of the field and embrace Minnesota's natural beauty.

The exterior features limestone and Kasota stone, paying homage to local architecture, while the interior boasts wide concourses, comfortable seating, and state-of-the-art facilities. The stadium's design also emphasizes sustainability, with features like a rainwater recycling system and energy-efficient lighting contributing to its LEED Silver certification.

The stadium's open-air design allows fans to enjoy Minnesota's mild summers and vibrant sunsets while cheering on the Twins. Concessions offer a variety of local and gourmet options, including Minnesota classics like Juicy Lucys and walleye sandwiches.

Beyond baseball, Target Field hosts events year-round, from concerts to corporate gatherings, becoming a central hub for social and cultural events in Minneapolis.

Target Field showcases over 500 pieces of artwork throughout the stadium, celebrating Minnesota's diverse artistic community.

The stadium features one of the largest high-definition video boards in MLB, enhancing the fan experience with instant replays and interactive content.

Since moving to Target Field, the Twins have seen success, including division championships and memorable playoff runs.

Target Field is a symbol of Minnesota's love for baseball and community. Whether you're a die-hard Twins fan or simply exploring Minneapolis, a visit to Target Field offers a blend of history, innovation, and Midwestern hospitality that leaves a lasting impression.

Whether you're catching a game or simply enjoying the view, this iconic stadium is a worthy addition to your...

It was our first game. None of us are into baseball much but we go to Vikings games frequently and wanted to check out the Twins.

Luckily, I was able to score 2nd row seats in the outfield for relatively cheap. I think this greatly increased our satisfaction, and don't think our experience would've been very good if not for the good seats.

The bleachers were not only uncomfortable, but because there's no true, defined seating (i.e. - individual seats), the people beside us took up more than their allotted space and we were left trying to sort the situation out with those around us.

The people to our left were literally too large to scoot over any further, so they were sitting halfway in one of our seats, which made us have to sit halfway into the seats of the people to our right. This led to some passive aggressive squabbling amongst all of us.

I had some issues with the concession staff as well. There was no instruction about how to get your concessions, and it was a very different system than I was used to, so I was confused. There weren't even any employees around who asked directions, so I just was left to guess how I do it...

Well, I did it wrong. Apparently I was supposed to get the concessions myself, and the guy that finally appeared wasn't happy that I didn't figure this out on my own.

The problem was created by the fact that he did not have any popcorn out to grab. And because there was no popcorn, I thought that there would be an employee assisting us at some point in the transaction. This was not the case.

A lot of the snacks were not even faced toward the customer. Combined with the fact that there was no a popcorn available, it very much appeared as though the employee was supposed to get my snacks for me.

On the plus side, I found a cool little bat for $15 that I thought was a pretty good deal for a souvenir.

Other than that, the experience kind of sucked. Baseball isn't the most thrilling sport again with, so combined with seating issues and concession sstand problems, I don't know if I would ever...

We were there for the Hella Mega Tour this visit and honestly it was the best visit I've had to Target Field. It's a great venue for a concert! There are some things that make it less than 5 stars. Prices are insane. I bought a bottle of water and it was $6! Thankfully they installed water bottle refill stations by SOME of the bathrooms so keep that in mind to save a little money! Check the website for rules about what you can bring! You're allowed a small bag. You can also bring one sealed water bottle or an empty reusable one I believe. There are some allowances for medical reasons/devices. As is the case with most concerts, you will likely end up standing for large portions of the show because you can't see when others stand. As someone with a disability this is really hard on me. And getting seating up top is difficult. (And even farther from the stage) Recommended parking is the nearby ramps. Buy parking ahead of time online! Lifesaver! It's also a hot venue but thankfully the sun sets behind home plate and the stage was setup in the outfield. (Also helpful info when going to a baseball game. Sitting in the sun for hours is not fun) Almost fell down the stairs multiple times as there was one extra big step at the top of my section what wasn't signed or stripped well at all. (Between sections 120 & 119) I was also kicked out of my seat after 15-20 minutes after the end of the show which I was resting in to recover from the intense heat, loud noise, flashing lights, etc. There were still so many people in the stadium but apparently you can't stay sitting even for medical reasons.. Not very disability...
