San Francisco Giants Baseball at Oracle Park

Public Transportation

Oracle Park is located right on the Embarcadero and is easily accessible via public transportation.

• If you are coming from within San Francisco, you can take the T Third/Central Subway from Powell Station to the 4th and King Station, which is just one block from the park. Gameday shuttles and the N Judah all stop at 2nd and King Station, and can be boarded from any of the underground Muni stations along Market Street.
• If you are coming from outside of SF, BART and Caltrain both provide easy access to the ballpark. The closest BART stations to the park are Montgomery and Embarcadero stations, from which you can either walk (around 30 minutes) or transfer to a Muni metro line. From the underground stations, the N Judah or gameday shuttle will both drop passengers off at 2nd and King Station, just one block from the park.
• If you are coming from the North Bay, consider taking the Golden Gate Ferry or, if you are coming from the East Bay, the SF Bay Ferry. Both of these ferries drop off/pick up at the Ferry Building, where Market Street meets the Embarcadero. For weekend day games, you can catch the Ballpark Short Hop which takes you directly from Oracle Park to the Ferry Building, where you can transfer to your ferry.

Driving and Parking

While public transportation to the ballpark is both easier and more cost efficient than driving, there are still multiple parking options if you do choose to drive. 

• Parking is available at One Bryant Street/Lot 26 and Pier 30/32 along the Embarcadero, a short walk north of the ballpark. Both lots open three hours before the game begins. Tailgating is not allowed in either lot.
• Parking is available at Lot A/Pier 48, just south of the ballpark on the other side of McCovey Cove. Due to construction in the neighborhood, your entry/exit points at these lots may change throughout the season. Drive carefully and be watchful of road signs.
• Parking is available at Lot C along Fourth Street. This small lot is just south of Lot A/Pier 48.

Pricing at these official Oracle Park lots is dynamic, meaning rates will change depending on the time of day, day of week, and overall demand. 

There are also a variety of privately owned lots on every block around the area, which vary in price depending on the time of year.

The Giants recommend reserving parking in advance with SpotHero.

Biking/Rideshare

You can also find guarded bike racks near the park. Ride share apps are often accessible but may be difficult due to high demand.

No matter how you get there, make sure to plan your trip in advance and be there in time for the first pitch!

Oracle Park is filled with attractions and activities that boost the game day atmosphere to the next level.

There’s no shortage of activities for the kids behind the bleachers on the Promenade Level. The iconic Coca-Cola bottle slide is a fan favorite among every little Giants fan, along with the world’s largest baseball glove right next door, where kids can get an autograph-rubbing from their favorite Giant. The Toyota Fan Lot, which is also located on the Promenade Level, is a replica of Oracle Park where kids are free to hit whiffle balls and run the bases.

Before entering the park, check out the statues of the most iconic players in Giants history in Willie Mays Plaza. If you come in from the waterfront side, watch the kayaks go by in McCovey Cove, named after Giants legend Willie McCovey, whose statue sits nearby. If you stay long enough you might be able to watch a ball hit the water, which is what the Giants call a splash hit!

• San Francisco is known for its fog and shifting temperatures, which means night games can get pretty chilly. Make sure to bring layers. If your seats are in the sun during a day game, be sure to bring sunscreen and a hat.
• All of the vendors inside the ballpark are cashless. There is a cash-to-card machine near the Guest Services desk on the Promenade Level where you can exchange cash for a Visa gift card. Most of these vendors accept contactless card payment, like Apple Pay.
• Backpacks—even clear ones—are not permitted in the ballpark. Anything you bring into the park must be smaller than 16" x 16" x 8". Accommodations are made for diaper bags, medical bags and guests with accessible needs.

How far in advance should I buy San Francisco Giants tickets?

Depending on the day, time, and opponent, it may benefit you to purchase your tickets ahead of your visit. Games againts division rivals like the San Diego Padres or Los Angeles Dodgers are bound to sell quickly, as will tickets for games against teams with loyal, nationwide fan bases (the Yankees, the Red Sox). Generally, though, you can find tickets the day before a game—and sometimes even the day of!

Can I bring a purse or backpack to a Giants game?

As long as it's smaller than 16" x 16" x 8", you can bring any sort of bag—except a hard-sided cooler—into the ballpark.

What should I wear to an event at Oracle Park?

First, we hope you'll wear some San Francisco swag that you purchased during your visit! Beyond that, dress in layers. It's the rule for every other neighborhood of San Francisco, and it's the rule for Oracle Park, as well.
