Baseball. Bobbleheads. Burgers. Beer. Here’s how to make the most of game nights at Rogers Centre.
Going to a Blue Jays game is an essential Toronto summertime ritual. Since Rogers Centre completed Phase 2 of its multi-year $300-million renovation, expect photo ops, incredible new views and so. much. more.
Here are 10 ways to fan your Blue Jays spirit this season at the freshly updated Major League Baseball ballpark.
1. Take in epic views from the brand-new level 100 bowl
Attending a Jays’ home opener has always been a fan rite of passage. The 100 Level seating bowl was entirely rebuilt for the 2024 season, featuring wider, padded seats oriented towards home plate, enhancing the viewing experience.
But this year, the newest spot at Rogers Centre has fans right at field level at Club 328.
What can you expect? Better sightlines, a variety of vantage points, being closer to the action and access to an exclusive club and private bar. The Jays open their home season against the Baltimore Orioles on March 27, 2025.
2. Score fun Jays freebies
“I don’t like free team swag,” said no Jay fans ever. So don’t miss out on giveaway games! Mark these dates in your calendar and get to the stadium early—goodies go to the first 15,000 fans.

3. Upgrade from game day to game weekend
Did you know you can stay overnight inside Rogers Centre? Toronto Marriott City Centre Hotel was the first hotel to be built within a major league ballpark. Spend the weekend in a field-view suite, or gather a group and book one of the hotel’s private open-air Skyboxes.
You can also catch the game from the hotel’s Sportsnet Grill, which features menu items like Daulton Varsho’s Favourite Fried Cheese Curds and the Strikeout Stack (a hefty triple-stacked burger garnished with raclette cheese, sautéed mushrooms and all the fixings).
4. Get in on the theme-night action
Regular 2025 Theme Days crank up the fun factor with giveaways, activities and entertainment.
This season has nine on deck, including Blue Jays Minecraft Movie Day (May 3, 2025), Blue Jays Barbie Game Day (May 17, 2025), Pride Night (June 20, 2025), Salsa Night (July 23, 2025) and more.
Better start preparing your themed outfits now.
5. Capture IG-worthy snapshots
The Outfield District, introduced in 2023, continues to offer endless opportunities for photos and reels tailor-made for Instagram.
Hit up TD Park Social for a selfie with the baseball mural and swings, and rep your love for Toronto with a photo of the mural of the city’s neighbourhoods, which you’ll find in The Stop.
Some of the best photo backdrops, though, are in the Corona Rooftop Patio (from the greenery wall decked out with a Toronto Blue Jays neon sign to the Toronto skyline mural).
6. Nosh on glizzies on Loonie Dogs Nights
Hot dog lovers, prepare your appetites because Loonie Dogs Nights are returning for 2025! Budget-friendly $1 hot dogs will be sold at stadium concession stands during each of this season’s 13 Tuesday home games (excluding Canada Day).
7. Throw the opposing team off their game
Formerly known as the Right Field Bleachers, the retro-style Canada Dry Bleachers behind the visitors’ bullpen is the perfect spot to observe the opposing team’s pitchers in action. Hardcore fans often arrive early to secure prime spots in this section.
8. Snag the ultimate souvenir: a home run ball!
Make this the season you catch a stray home run ball. One of the best chances you’ll get to do this is in Rogers Landing, located in right field beside the visitors’ bullpen. You’ll not only get front-row views of the rival bullpen and outfield, but stray homers have been known to end up in this standing-room-only area.
9. Start a game day dance party
You’ll hear loads of music at the Rogers Centre during Jays games. Make your way from hot spot to hot spot in the stadium, including Corona Rooftop Patio, TD Park Social, WestJet Flight Deck and The Stop—who knows, the catchy tunes may just inspire you to break out dancing.
10. Take a beer flight and try tasty new bites
Craft beer connoisseurs won’t want to miss out on beer tastings while spectating. Toronto breweries featured in stadium include Amsterdam Brewery, Bellwoods Brewery and Blood Brothers Brewing, to name just a few.
More of a cocktail drinker? Head to The Catch Bar for handcrafted cocktails, including the ballpark’s signature drink, OK Blue Jays Rum Punch, a mix of Sprite, lime juice, simple syrup and Bacardi Blue. Bonus: it’s served in a souvenir cup you can take home!
For the 2025 season, new menu items range from ballpark classics to more quirky bites for adventurous eaters.
Expect new specialty hot dogs in addition to the fan-favourite Hot Maple Bacon Hot Dog, Korean Fried Chicken, and a member-exclusive BBQ-inspired menu at Club 328, to name a few. For a sweeter snack, try the Cotton Candy Fries, which offer a playful combination of sweet and savoury flavours.
