Roger Dean Stadium

I went here for the Jupiter Craft Beer Festival and had a blast. It was held not within the actual stadium but on the side, but there was plenty of room for the 50-​plus breweries that represented and provided free samples of some of their tap list.
Overall, I was pleased with the parking, which was right across from the stadium, and ease to get around. Great place to attend events.

Great place to catch minor league game and also watch spring training games… just make sure u bring rain jacket/​sun block/​bug spray… all depending upon the weather. Ps… bring a glove lol those foul balls come pretty quick be ready. Lol

Always a great time here! Beautiful stadium with all great seats! Friendly people and the kids get up front views and personalized time with players! All around great family stadium!

Not many covered seats to avoid the sweltering heat and/​or rain. The «cool zone» is a great option but usually requires a group ticket rate.
Very limited berm & standing room areas. Seeing as it’s the only ST stadium in Palm Beach through Miami Dade (until the Nats & Astros new stadium in 2017), it’s lacking some serious upgrades.
Parking available via the garage next to the Courtyard Marriott, street spots about Abacoa area (usually 3 hr limit), lot by the nearby skateboarding park, or — for a price — the gated lots on the left & right field sides.
Some of the ushers & parking staff are old, crotchety people — which makes for a less than friendly experience.

Received free tickets to a baseball game by donating some non-​perishable food for Roger Dean’s «Strike Out Hunger» campaign. Our tickets read «Standing Room Only.» Since I didn’t know where that was, I asked an usher who told me, «Sit anywhere.» My son and I chose seats behind home plate. (and in the shade) Our seats were fantastic, we helped a good cause, and got free tickets. On top of that, the Palm Beach Cardinals defeated the Daytona Tortugas. Loved the mascot race and the other between inning activities. The stadium was somewhat empty of fans. I had a really good time and would encourage more folks to go out to the ball park! Parking spaces are available in a nearby lot (no charge) or on the street close to the stadium. Didn’t use any concessions as we planned to eat after the game, so I can’t comment on those.

Great place to bring the whole family! Great seats pretty much where ever you sit! Good food. Good drinks! Would definitely come back for another game or events they have! I know they are having a Star Wars event in April! Go to the website
for event information! I highly recommend it! They have some great events here! This place is AWESOME! Having a wonderful day here with my parents! Will definitely be coming back! #rogerdeanstadium

R dean is a great location to catch a game.
A buddy and I went up yesterday catch a Marlins vs twins game. We got amazing seats but there isn’t a bad spot in the park. Heck for just a couple bucks you can do standing room only at a bar in right field.
They have all the usual perks, cotton candy, beats, pretzels, and lines are not big at all.
It’s worth the drive, even if you are coming from Miami

I’ve never been to a minor league or spring training game before so I was quite pleased with the intimate nature of the setting. We got pretty good seats down front for about $ 40 but it was a bit unnecessary since most seats were right on top of the action. In retrospect, it would have been a comparable experience to sit in the $ 20 seats I’m sure.
The stadium had good facilities and plenty of concessions, though pricing was a bit steep at nearly $ 5 for a smallish sized dog or a small ice cream. But hey, people gotta hustle and make money. Totally understand that.
Finally, I wanted to say some nice words about the awesome staff there. I was looking for a family type bathroom for my kid to use, so I sought out an usher for help. She knew of one in the park, but after taking us around a bit, couldn’t find it. With that she walked us over to the front office and asked if we could use their private bathroom and they gladly agreed. I gotta say, they totally saved the day with that move! My kid got to pee in style rather than being subjected to a chorus of old man beer farts in the men’s room. Big points for that!

Got to attend my first game here yesterday (Go Tigers!). Unfortunately my team lost, but we still had a great time! All staff that we encountered was very friendly and accommodating.
The stadium is small enough that there really aren’t many bad seats in the place. My husband was happy to see that there were so many beer options. No options for wine or cider that I found though :(
We couldn’t attend a ball game without getting the stadium fare, so I ended up with a plain hot dog and my husband got a dean dog. Both were big and filling! I was hoping that there would be frozen lemonade, but settled with dippin dots instead.
Everything was wildly overpriced; however, we’ve come to expect this at just about any sporting event. Beers were about $ 8 each, so hit the ATM before entering!
Seats were incredibly hot when you initially sit down, so beware! However, they were as comfortable as it gets in stadiums and I didn’t feel to packed in with everyone around us.
If you google, the stadium seating, there is a website that will tell you the best sections/​rows to sit in and which seats are shaded, etc. I would highly recommend trying to get seats in the shade, as that Florida sun gets hot and I still managed to get a little burn ever after having put on sunscreen!

Roger Dean Stadium is one of the better minor league spots in the country. Located in what is still sleepy Jupiter the majority of the year, this really open stadium is simple and suits the modern bohemian design often found in the rest of Abacoa. The two resident teams the Hammerheads (From the Marlins) and the Cardinals (From the Cardinals) put on a good show. The staff of the stadium is usually bright and attentive. The facilities are, likewise, very good. Bathrooms are never dirty and any of the standard stadium food is always available. (Yeah, I grouped food and bathrooms in the same sentence. It is still stadium food) All in all a very family friendly park that is very affordable.

The Cardinals and Marlins share Roger Dean stadium in Jupiter, FL. Unlike the Cactus League where it’s common for Major League Teams to share facilities, this is considered unusual in the Grapefruit league. I could write an entire blog on Grapefruit v Cactus, but I’ll cut to the chase: I really prefer the Cactus league as the Phoenix metro area allows one to see more talent and more teams, which is more competitive and a better learning experience for the players.
During the MLB season, when the minor league teams play, this stadium is actually home for 4 teams: The A and A+ (high A) Marlins and well as the same for the Cardinals. The stadium is grass, seats over 6800 and has luxury sky boxes.
The practice fields where the A+, AA and AAA teams work out in Spring Training are nice. The Marlins have done a better job with rest rooms and cleanliness than have the Cardinals, though. I like the fact the home runs go into traffic on certain fields… creates some entertainment.
Nice place, I’d go back! Go Fish!

Baseball 140 times per year between April and August. Great value for family fun. See the stars (and ex-​minor leaguers) of tomorrow today at the Dean!

A little tropical slice of baseball heaven. Beautiful, intimate park. Don’t miss the opportunity to watch team workouts on the back lots — one of a kind opportunity to see major leaguers up close, relaxed, and having fun. Don’t miss Skip’s workout briefing on the back fields ! Good opportunities to snag some autographs and shag some BP homers! Features some of the most amusing beer vendors I’ve seen at a ballpark — they offer the usual ballpark suspects, but there are several small kiosks that serve local craft beers.
Oh yeah, the Marlins train there too ;-)

What a beautiful stadium! Visiting the Cardinals for Spring Training in 2013 was one of the nicest things I’ve done all year. Roger Dean Stadium itself contributed to make the experience great.
Show up early, because there’ll be lots of people in line to try and get autographs. If you’re with kids, and it’s a Cards home game, hurry to the berm (right field) to snag a seat. If you’re a grown-​up, try along the first base line instead. You’ll be standing for a while.
If autographs aren’t your thing — and they aren’t to be counted on here in the least — just go in and enjoy the huge difference between RDS and Busch Stadium here in St. Louis. The crowd is much smaller and cozier. There are some slightly cheaper beers to drink. The fans are just as wild.
Show up especially early and catch batting practice, too. Those in the know suggest that it’s a lot harder to spend a few minutes with the players now that Matheny’s taken charge of the unit. Interesting, I say.
Once the game is over, the little town center that surrounds Roger Dean is a lovely place to have a burger.
Just make sure to come back and watch the next day’s game, too!

How could it get better than watching your favorite team win at minor league prices!
Great accommodations, lots of concessions… they even have an app you can download where you could order food & drinks online, and it is delivered right to your seat.
GO CARDS!!!

Great night for a game. Just watching and having a blast with the family. great to do for some fun
