💡 Insider Tips

🚌 Getting Around

Pittsburgh’s “T” light rail runs free between downtown and the North Side, with the North Side station diagonally across from the home plate entrance. The Roberto Clemente Bridge (6th Street Bridge) closes to cars on home game days and becomes pedestrian-only, connecting downtown to the stadium in a 10-minute walk.

🎟️ Tickets

Ticketmaster and SeatGeek are the official resale channels. With only 3 sellouts in the 2025 season, this is the easiest of the three teams to get tickets for.

🗺️ City Pass Bundling

Both ends of the Clemente Bridge are lined with attractions — the Benedum Center downtown and the Andy Warhol Museum on the North Side — making for an easy walkable combo.

💡 Insider Tips

PNC Park sits along the Allegheny River, and the standing-room area behind right field (free viewing) offers a view of the Clemente Bridge and Pittsburgh’s skyline widely praised as one of the best in baseball. Bags are limited to a single soft-sided bag under 16x16x8 inches. Primanti Bros.’ sandwiches, famously stuffed with fries, are the signature food.
