Welcome to HomeTrust Park

Nestled into a hillside just south of downtown Asheville, HomeTrust Park is one of the most historic and picturesque ballparks in Minor League Baseball. Opened in 1924, the stadium is famous for its "cozy" dimensions, particularly a right-field wall that stands 36 feet high (drawing comparisons to Fenway Park’s Green Monster) due to its short 297-foot distance from home plate. Over its century-long history, the field has hosted legends like Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, and Jackie Robinson and even served as a filming location for the 1988 classic Bull Durham.

Today, the stadium is the home of the Asheville Tourists, the High-A affiliate of the Houston Astros, and underwent a massive $38.5 million "Centennial Restoration." This project, was completed for Opening Day 2026. It modernized the facility with new clubhouses, a multi-use year-round event space, and upgraded fan amenities like a new video board and expanded concourse. Despite these upgrades, the park retained its unique mountain charm, remaining a "Beer City" staple where fans can enjoy local craft brews while watching a game against the backdrop of the Blue Ridge foothills.

Ballpark seating & group areas

HomeTrust Park seating chart

Main Seating Bowl

The grandstand is divided into two primary levels: the lower bowl (Premium Box) and the upper bowl (Reserves and Corner Reserves).

Premium Boxes (Sections A–S): These are the closest seats to the action, wrapping directly behind home plate and along both baselines. They offer traditional stadium-style seating with cupholders and are ideal for fans who want a clear, unobstructed view of the infield.
Reserves & Corner Reserves (Sections AA–NN): Located just above the main walkway, these sections provide an elevated perspective. Sections are CC-KK are considered our most popular "Reserves" seating, while the sections toward the far ends of the baselines (like AA, BB, LL, MM, and NN) are our Corner Reserves. A key tip for summer games: the first base side (Sections AA-GG) tends to get shade earlier in the evening, thanks to the stadium's awning.

Premium & Group Areas

HomeTrust Park is known for its Private Venues, which offer a more relaxed atmosphere than the standard seats:

The Best Buy Metals Pavilion: Booked private or semi-private with a picturesque view of left field, this space offers an open-air experience for even the largest of groups.
The Champion Credit Union Club provides our most exclusive experience with close up views of the batting cages, as well as a premium view of left field with both inside and outside seating.
The Mountain Time Suite has everything you can imagine: private bathrooms, inside and outside seating, and a fantastic view of the action!
The Palmetto Bath & Home Bullpen gets you as close to the action as possible! Watch the visiting bullpen warm up steps away as you enjoy a private space with family and friends.

Parking Tips for 2026

Because the stadium is nestled in a residential/wooded area, parking directly at the field is very limited and fills up fast.

The Shuttle: For the 2026 season, a complimentary Gray Line Trolley runs from the Ironwood Parking Garage (45 Federal Alley) starting 60 minutes before the first pitch.
Nearby Lots: If the small stadium lot is full, check the Minnie Jones Health Center lot on Biltmore Avenue, which is a popular walk-up option.
Mobility Assistance: A courtesy golf cart usually patrols the immediate parking areas to assist fans with the steep hill climb to the front gate.
