It was a great value for the money for the 4 of us. With the rest of the food concessions having the highest cost of $4, that just adds to the value. The baseball was good, it is definitely the most affordable sporting event in Edmonton for a family.
The game was a great family event and we will be back! Thank you!
this is a fun filled night for the whole family!!! lots of fun and the extras at every game make it a great night out. the cost of food and tickets make it easy for a group to go out and have fun and not spend a whole lot of money
Fans in the stands, hot dogs on the grill and a perfect summer night for baseball - it doesn't get much better until you factor in all the goodies for only $44! Plus our home team won! If you haven't been to the ball park in awhile, you're missing out on good family fun. This team is going all out to feed and entertain you and the kids without breaking the bank. We've been twice already and plan to go again!
We took in Wed night game when the Caps played the Tijuana. We won (of course) and the setting couldn't be better. We had great weather, great crowd, food was good and the energy from all the fans made it alot of fun for my kids and I. This is what baseball should be about! Having fun, and making memories.
I was an awesome evening for my family. It was our first time at a baseball game in Edmonton and we will definitely come out again. My oldest birthday is at the end of August so we are thinking of having her birthday there. We would definitely recommend this family night out to everyone we know! The only thing that we disliked was that we could not get the 4 for $44 seat sales :( They were sold out the night we wanted to go.
I recently moved to Edmonton from Toronto and had been to Rogers Centre to see the Jays many times. I have to say I really enjoyed the smaller venue and the game was just as good as watching the Big Leaguers!
Great, affordable, friendly, family evening. Foods good and staff are friendly.
Had an awesome time at the Canada day baseball game - - but, did they give all their staff the day off?? The line-ups for food were ridiculous! And where did the peanuts in the shell go?? What's a baseball game without peanuts in the shell?? It can't be a peanut allergy thing; they sell shelled peanuts in cello bags. Is it cuz they don't want to pay anyone to sweep them up every night? Just wondering...
The deal of 4 tickets for $44 with free hotdog and drink was amazing! We had a group of 8 and we all enjoyed watching the Edmonton Capitals beat the Calgary Vipers, and after the game we could stay in our seats to watch the Canada Day fireworks! We all will be returning for more 4 for $44 Ticket Thrusdays!
Great night, lots of entertainment, giveaways, fun for kids & great fireworks. What more could you ask for and for a reasonable price.
We couldn't ask for a more entertaining game, and on Canada Day with the best fireworks display we've ever seen! Great weather, fantastic game, & friendly crowd. The over-all experience was just Awesome.......
We had great seats on the 1st base line, really enjoyed watching the caps play Calgary and win!!! Then followed up with people allowed on the field, especially when the 1st base coach came out and mingled with the crowd, and fabulous fireworks ....it was an awesome evening!!!! Even our heckler was hilarious, not obnoxious..way too funny
The ball game was great and entertainment in stadium very entertaining, but poorly organized. Unfortunately with a near sold-out event, the support organization did not perform as it needed to - from no clear instructions for will-call lineups and cash only with no clear and visible signage (customers were sent to the back of the line twice before getting will-call tickets from the only window serving same), only two concessions with poorly trained staff (again customers waited more than 30 minutes in line to order hot dogs and soft drink). In view of the advertising for best location to view Canada Day fireworks and emphasis on being a family oriented event, it was anticipated to be a popular event that should have been supported with trained staff and the organization being key for future success for the Edmonton Capitals.
Great atmosphere, had fun, good game, fireworks afterwards. All in all pretty great value
The game was very enjoyable - what little of it I saw since we chose Will Call to pick up our tickets and stood in a HUGE long line to pick up the tickets we already paid for and missed the first 3 innings, then I stood for over an hour in the SLOW concession line and got back in my seats just in time for the 7th inning!!!! Note that when we got up to the cashier, they didn't have any cold drinks left and the hot dogs were barely warm. Great value if you go well before to park, pick up tickets and get your hot dogs. The event itself was fun. Great view of the fireworks show for Canada Day celebrations. We enjoyed that.
For several years (back to even the days of the Trappers) my wife and I have talked about going to a ball game at Telus Field. We finally made the leap to actually taking our young family to a game. The overall experience was fantastic. We couldn't have asked for much of a better game with an exciting extra innings Capitals homerun to top off the victory. The ball game and on field activities were very entertaining and the nature of the game allowed for some great family time in a relaxed atmosphere where we were able to visit and enjoy the time together. But , there is much more to the experience than the game itself. Some good, some not so good. The $44 deal for 4 tickets complete with hot dogs and pops is an almost unbelievable value. To the benefit of the Capitals (and our family), we spent much more than this on popcorn, beverages and Capitals gear. Unlike the high prices found at many other venues, the reasonable prices here allowed us to get more for our money and we had extra funds left to purchase additional items in support of the event. In the end, we spent similar if not more money than at other venues, but were given a great deal more value in the process. We chose this July 1 date as a family holiday experience partially due to the ball game, but also due to the Canada Day fireworks. Neither one disappointed. The downside is that with all successful events, proper planning must be in place to handle the volume of people trying to enjoy it. We found that the area parking was a real hassle. The police were directing traffic in circles toward lots that were already full. In my opinion, certain lots should be reserved for people attending the ball game (especially those that have planned ahead and pre-ordered tickets to the game) - not just trying to go the area to get a spot for the fireworks. Once we were finally able to find parking, it was an easy walk with easy access to the ball park. Once there, the only disappointment was the preparedness / staffing levels in the food lines. I don't believe the staff were ready for the volume of people that were in attendance. It was a 30 minute wait each time to purchase a snack or drink. Also of note is that the coupons for the hot dogs and pop said that they were only valid at concessions 2, 3, & 5. This added great confusion to everyone attempting to redeem the coupons because none of the concessions were labelled with a number. We were therefore left to wait in line in hopes that after the 30 minute wait that the coupon could actually be redeemed at that location. It turned out to not be an issue, however was a confusion that could have easily been rectified with a simple identifying number. I expect that these few negatives are not typical during a normal, non holiday event game and will definitely take my family again. My hope is that these negative issues will not be repeated at that time and that the entire experience will be as positive as the overall event which would make me want to turn this into a more regular outing for my family.
I was expecting the Canada Day baseball game to be popular and it was extremely well attended with line-ups for everything. Getting tickets in advance was a good idea. There was only a small line up at Will Call to pick them up whereas the regular ticket booth had a huge wait. The 4 for $44 deal we got was great for our party of 8, excellent seats in the Grandstand! The concession had some problems with getting enough hot dogs out in a timely manner so we had to wait almost two innings in line waiting for our food and pop that was included. There were fun events in between innings to entertain the crowd. The baseball was entertaining but some may find it slow (it was a low scoring game this time). My four-year-old learned a little bit about the game. At the end people stayed to view the Canada Day fireworks. Overall, the evening was great for our family, with the small exception of the long wait for the hot dogs and pop.
2 Adults and 2 little kids we had seats right behind home plate. It was a lovely day. They keep things moving with music and games and then won in the 10th inning 2-1. Food line up was crazy I missed 3 innings waiting in line for food! They need more food vendors working the stands. Best place in Edmonton to see the wonderful Canada Day fireworks.
The game was very entertaining with great between inning promotions and games.
