Cheney Stadium Seating Chart

Home of the Tacoma Rainiers, the Seattle Mariners' Triple-A affiliate, since 1960. The intimate ballpark sits south of downtown Tacoma with Mount Rainier visible beyond the outfield on clear days, and a 2010 renovation modernized the seating bowl and concourses.

Sections at Cheney Stadium

Cheney Stadium's seating bowl is organized into the following main sections. Section layout differs by event — a sports configuration and a concert configuration of the same arena are not the same chart.

  • Field-level boxes — lower bowl behind the plate and dugouts
  • Reserved grandstand — mid-bowl seats
  • Right-field deck — outfield group and party areas
  • Berm — general-admission grass beyond the outfield
  • Suites — press-level hospitality boxes

Best seats at Cheney Stadium

Field-level boxes behind home plate and along the first-base dugout give the closest view with the mountain backdrop in frame. The grass berm beyond right field is the relaxed family pick on a sunny afternoon.

Tips before you go

Bring a layer even in summer — Tacoma evenings cool quickly once the sun drops behind the bowl. Parking on site is straightforward, and the smaller crowd means the lots clear fast after the final out.

How to read the Cheney Stadium seating chart

Cheney Stadium seats 6,500 fans around a baseball diamond, so reading the chart starts at home plate and works outward. Field-level sections ring the infield and outfield: the lower-number sections behind the plate and along the baselines sit closest to the action, while outfield and bleacher sections are farther out but usually cost far less. Above field level the club and upper decks climb in tiers, and the section number tells you which way you face — in toward the infield or down a foul line.

Three things decide a Cheney Stadium seat: how close you are to the diamond, whether you sit behind the plate or out toward a foul pole, and how high you are. The value sweet spot at a ballpark this size is usually the lower outfield or the first rows of the upper deck behind the plate — close enough to follow the game, cheap enough to justify. Shade matters too, so check which sections fall under the overhang for a day game, and cross-check the official Cheney Stadium map against your ticket before you buy.
