COMERICA PARK
THE SCOREBOARD
One of the newest and most stunning features at Comerica Park is the massive High Definition LED video board in
left field. The Daktronics board measures approximately 48 feet high and 127 feet wide and utilizes the latest in
LED technology, offering excellent clarity and contrast of video images. In addition to the main board, a five-foot
high and 100-foot wide LED display is positioned beneath the main board to provide pitcher statistics and other
information. The state-of-the-art technology continues on top of the board with a script Tigers logo which utilizes
LED technology to allow the lettering to change color and be animated for special events throughout the season.
FAMILY ENTERTAINMENT
In the middle of the food court, a merry-go-round is available for the young and young-at-heart, with patrons riding
atop tigers instead of horses. Behind the “Brushfire Grill” barbecue area stands a baseball-themed ferris wheel.
The stunning fountain above center field synchronizes music and light to spraying fountains of water.
SEATING LEVELS AND CAPACITIES
There are approximately 23,000 seats in the lower bowl of Comerica Park and 2,000 in the two suite levels. There
are roughly 11,000 in the main upper deck. From just past first base to the right-field foul line there is a section with
4,000 seats that does not have a suite level. The upper deck in this level is approximately 15 feet lower and closer
to the field than the main upper deck.
PREMIUM SEATING AREAS
Comerica Park features four premium seating areas. Located at the upper rows of the lower bowl, the Tiger Den
resembles the fashionable boxes at old-time sporting venues with movable chairs. A private lounge is available for
patrons. The first five rows of the upper bowl have been designated as club seats, and patrons have access to the
Club Lounge. Another premium seating area is located in the lowest rows of the lower bowl, called On-Deck Circle
seats. Additionally, there are two levels of suites, which includes several party suites that are available for individual
