Tailgating
Guests may tailgate at Tailgate Park on a limited basis. Guests are required to park in spaces as directed by ACE Parking upon arriving to Tailgate Park. Guests may not reserve additional spaces and must tailgate directly behind their vehicle. Tailgating is not permitted in any other garage or lot.
Tailgate Parties in the Tailgate Lot
Space for tailgate parties can be reserved through the Padres for groups that have purchased tickets for specific games by calling (619) 795-5010. A minimum of 10 spaces are needed for a reservation and a maximum of 100 spaces are available. Each space can accommodate approximately 5 to 7 people. To ensure availability, please reserve your space a minimum of 2 weeks in advance of your group event. The price to reserve space in the Tailgate Lot is $20 per space (minimum of $200) and includes an enclosed area for your group with the proper amount of spaces, security, and trash pick-up for your event.
Please note that spaces are to be used to accommodate your tailgate function, not for parking cars. If you need spaces for your group to park, please speak with a Padres Ticket Sales Account Executive to pre-purchase parking spaces. Parking in the Tailgate Lot can be purchased on the day of the game, subject to availability. All catering and set-up is the responsibility of the group and no kegs, glass bottles or charcoal grills of any kind are permitted.
