What it's known for
The water spectacular beyond the outfield fence is Kauffman’s signature: a long wall of fountains and waterfalls that runs across right and center field and puts on a show between innings and after big plays. The scoreboard is topped with the Royals’ crown logo.
The K was one of the few baseball-only stadiums built in the multi-purpose stadium era, and renovations have kept it comfortable while preserving its look. It shares the Truman Sports Complex with Arrowhead Stadium, home of the Chiefs.
Getting there
Kauffman Stadium is on the east side of Kansas City at the Truman Sports Complex, off I-70. It’s a drive-in ballpark, with large parking lots, and tailgating before games is common.
Tips for your visit
- Try to sit or stand near the fountains at least once during the game.
- Kansas City barbecue is everywhere in and around the ballpark.
- There’s a Royals Hall of Fame in the outfield concourse, included with your ticket.
