Yankee Stadium
Yankee Stadium is the famous home of the New York Yankees
Yankee Stadium is so well known, and with good reason. With a history going back to 1923 it is home of the New York Yankees Baseball team.
Out with the old and in with the new - Yankee Stadium has been replaced with the 2009 opening of a brand new version right across the street from the original. The new stadium is built to closely reflect the design and feel of both the original and renovated 1923 stadium, however the interior offers a more modern ballpark with increased space and amenities and wider concourses.
While visiting Yankee Stadium you can also check out the Yankees Museum in the lower level where you can view an extensive collection of memorabilia from the New York Yankees. The stadium does offer tours and they an be booked ahead online at a discount.
The stadium also presents many choices for eating with 25 fixed and 112 mobile concession stands, a Hard Rock Cafe at the entrance and NYY Steak nearby.

Yankee Stadium Reviews
Rated out of 5
It was a really unique experience seeing Yankee Stadium for the first time. I must admit, however, that the area around it is FAR behind the times. Trying to be nice about it, but the best example I can give is to check out "The Battery" around the Atlanta Braves stadium, then look at NY and you'll understand. A difference of confident fun vs relative scary safety

A wonderful place where you can taste a slice of real American sport. No stadium fights all friends even between rival teams. In a beautiful atmosphere. The courteous staff; easy to reach by public transport. I don't recommend taking a taxi or UBER because the fares are crazy

Yankee Stadium is Yankee Stadium – iconic, legendary, and powerful.
Even if you’re not a baseball fan, if you’re in NYC you must go to a game just to experience the energy. The atmosphere is unforgettable.
The key is to walk the entire stadium. That’s exactly what we did, and every level gave us a completely different perspective of the game. It’s more than just baseball – it’s an experience.
Pro tip: grab last-minute tickets 2 hours prior or when you are in the taxi or train on the day to the stadium.
Go on SeatGeek or Ticketmaster for the best value.

Despite a rainy game, we had a blast watching the Yankees play the Blue Jays! Such a fantastic modern stadium. The outside looks clean and very high end. The seating is great and there are lots of options for great ballpark food. The specialty items are definetly in the lower levels, but the view from section 419 was fantastic!
