Helpful Hints for Atlanta Braves Fans Coming to Turner Field

03/31/2008 --
• With large crowds expected and on-going construction on the downtown connector, fans heading out to Turner Field this week for the Braves first homestand of the year are encouraged to arrive early or consider taking Marta.

• Turner Field parking maps can be found at braves.com/parking along with detailed directions, parking and traffic information.

• On Opening Night, the Green, Blue, Orange, and Gold lots will be PERMIT ONLY parking. If fans do not have a permit, please park in the official Braves (Grey, Brown, Red and Yellow) lots located west of the Interstate along Central Avenue.

• On Opening Night, the Turner Field parking lots will open four hours prior to first pitch, at 3:10 p.m. For Wednesday-Sunday's games, the parking lots will open three hours prior to first pitch.

• Braves ticket windows will open at 8:30 a.m. Monday-Friday and 9:00 a.m. on Saturday and Sunday for fans who have pre-purchased tickets and would like to pick them up in advance.

• On Opening Night, fans should plan on being in their seats by 6:30 p.m. so they don't miss any of the pre-game festivities, including Diana DeGarmo performing the National Anthem and a military fly-over.
