Minute Maid Park Tickets

Catch the Astros at Minute Maid Park .

Minute Maid Park is a baseball stadium in Houston, Texas that opened in 2000 for Houston Astros baseball . The ballpark was Houston's first retractable-roofed stadium, protecting fans and athletes from Houston's notoriously humid weather like its predecessor, the Astrodome, but allowing fans to also enjoy outdoor baseball, something they couldn't enjoy in the Astrodome. Its entrance is what was once Houston's Union Station, and the left-field side of the stadium features a train as homage to the site's history. The train moves along a track on top of the length of the exterior wall beyond left field whenever an Astros player hits a home run (the engine's tender, traditionally used to carry coal, is filled with giant oranges in tribute to Minute Maid's most famous product, frozen orange juice).
