📖About Rogers Centre

Rogers Centre (formerly SkyDome) is a world-renowned multi-purpose stadium in the heart of Toronto. Famous for its fully retractable roof and its location adjacent to the CN Tower, it has been transformed into a baseball-first venue through an extensive CA$400M renovation project.

🎟️Visitor Guide

Best Seats

The newly renovated 100-level seats between the dugouts are now oriented toward the infield for much better views. For a social vibe, head to the Corona Rooftop Patio in the 500-level.

Parking Tips

Avoid driving; the stadium is perfectly served by Union Station (TTC and GO Transit). If walking from downtown, use the covered "SkyWalk" for a direct and climate-controlled path.

Game Day

Explore the "Outfield District" social spaces before the game. Watch for the roof to open—a process that takes about 20 minutes and transforms the entire atmosphere of the park.
