An Insider's Guide to Atlanta Braves Games
Tips to know before you go to see the Atlanta Braves play home games at Truist Park and The Battery Atlanta.
The Braves baseball team was moved to Atlanta in 1966 from stints in Boston and Milwaukee. It's the longest continuously operating franchise in Major League Baseball. In their years as an organization, the team has won four World Series (most recently in 2021). Legends like Hank Aaron helped make the team what it is today.
The Ballpark
In March 2017, the Atlanta Braves officially moved to their new home at Truist Park (formerly SunTrust Park). It's surrounded by The Battery, an entertainment complex with restaurants, stores, concert venues and even a hotel.
Getting to the Game
Parking is available at The Battery, including charging for electric vehicles, and nearby lots. Fans can take Uber or Lyft to the stadium.
You also can take the bus: CobbLinc Bus 10 goes to The Battery from Arts Center station. Or, you may board MARTA Bus 12 at the Midtown MARTA Station that travels to Cumberland Mall. At the Cumberland Mall Transfer Center, you would transfer to the free Cumberland Circular Shuttle (either blue or green route) to reach The Battery Atlanta & Truist Park.

Seats and Tickets
Ticket prices vary based on the game and type of seat. More than 30 percent of all the park's tickets are $20 or less. Special packages include free drinks and snacks. The tickets and parking can be downloaded using the MLB Ballpark app, which also provides additional information.
Food and Drink
Going to the ballpark allows you to enjoy some great food. Truist Park has emphasized local vendors as much as possible and has some affordable options.
The Terrapin Taproom is a crowd favorite with a rotating list of Terrapin's classic brews as well as experimental styles found only here. They also serve Fox Bros. Bar-B-Q. You can bring your food and drink items inside the stadium if you’re not finished before the first pitch.
H+F Burger brings Holeman & Finch Public House's cult favorite burger to the park, available every day as well as on game days.
There's also Atlanta's own Chick-fil-A and King of Pops.
The Battery has many more dining options, including Italian-style pizza at Antico Pizzeria Napoletano and Tex-Mex at Superica. Stop into ASW Distillery's location at The Battery to sample their locally made bourbon, whiskey and vodka.
Alternatively, you can bring your own food into the stadium. Simply bring it in a clear, gallon-sized plastic bag. Sealed bottled water is also allowed. One of each is permitted per ticketholder.
