As the city of Fayetteville, North Carolina enters 2019 it will also usher in a new era for the downtown historic district. The area will receive monumental investments in the form of a newly constructed professional ballpark and a 30-year agreement with the Houston Astros to host the team's Class A-Advanced Minor League team. This new ballpark is slated to further catalyze the region's growth following a solid decade of economic development.
FayettevilleOnDeck.com is a resource from the Greater Fayetteville Chamber detailing business opportunities and developments within the city as they relate to the forthcoming stadium.
Fayetteville's New Ballpark and Event Venue
Once the ballpark opens it will accommodate about 5,290 spectators for in-season baseball games, and possibly more during special events happening year-round. The stadium will feature real turf grass and the largest digital video board in the Big South Conference, measuring 75 feet in width. A variety of viewing options await Woodpeckers fans: regular seats, picnic style relaxation on the left outfield berm, and even a section of rocking chairs past the center outfield wall.
Enjoying a night out at the ball field is possible for the whole family. A dedicated Kids Zone keeps young ones busy while tiring them out and adults can relax with a drink in hand at the Bleacher Bar and RF Grill. Concessions are located conveniently throughout the concourse.
