What time can you get in?

For regular season home games, all gates open 90 minutes prior to game time. That means you can show up pretty early to get settled at your seats. It will give you plenty of time for security screenings, to get the lay of the land, and grab a drink.

Who will they be playing?

This may be a no-brainer but you should know this. Especially if you don't have Phillies gear to wear, that way you avoid wearing the colors of the opposing team. And if it's a rivalry game...oh boy be ready.

Double, triple check this. You don't want to get caught missing game time or showing up too early. Especially if you're going to a postponed or rescheduled game. The start time of the game may change from when you bought the tickets up until the day of.

There is a new fan screening process.

When you used to enter the ballpark there was a process of having to split from your group. Those with bags went one way, those without went a different way. It was a hectic experience trying to reform your group after that. Well now that’s a thing of the past. The fast security process, thanks to AI that detects large-density metal, will allow people with bags to walk straight through. Separation no more!

What’s the weather gonna be like?

This is essential. The park is outside. There is not much cover while you're at your seat. If it's going to be hot, dress cool. If it's going to rain, bring a poncho. Sometimes games are postponed or even cancelled due to weather. So keep an eye on the forecast. You don't want to get caught in a bad situation!

There are plenty of eats.
