It’s baseball season! If you’ve never been to minor league game, make time this spring to visit Coolray Field and cheer on the Gwinnett Stripers, the triple-A affiliate team to our Atlanta Braves.
A Stripers game is an affordable outing for families, and a perfect cheap date — with tickets starting at just $9 and special promotion days that bring added value. Everything about the experience is less expensive than a Braves game at Truist Field. Plus, you’re sitting much closer to the action.
From April through September, the Stripers alternate home games and away games on a weekly basis. You can see the 2025 schedule online, or scroll down to see the home game dates, below.
Coolray Field is located in Lawrenceville at 2500 Buford Drive.
Note there is a clear bag policy in effect.
Game day parking is usually $10, cards only, no cash.
Opening week fun!
The opening night home game is on Tuesday, April 1, 2025, at 4:05 p.m. and it launches a 6-day series against Nashville. The first 2000 fans to arrive will get a special gift.
And Sunday, April 6th is a Sunday Funday game — come early to play catch on the field or stay after the game for Kids Run the Bases.
