Kauffman Stadium

Sports venue

About

Kauffman Stadium, affectionately known as "The K," is a historic baseball venue located in Kansas City, Missouri. It has been the home of the Kansas City Royals since 1973 and is celebrated for its modernist design and unique features. The stadium was initially named Royals Stadium but was renamed in 1993 to honor Ewing Kauffman, the team's original owner. One of its most distinctive features is the large fountain display beyond the right field, which is the largest privately funded fountain in the world. The stadium offers a family-friendly atmosphere, enhanced by amenities like the Royals Hall of Fame, featuring exhibits on legendary players. The Crown Vision scoreboard, one of the largest in MLB, provides an immersive experience with real-time stats and replays. Renovations have added a 360-degree outfield concourse, new seating areas, and upgraded facilities. Kauffman Stadium's design optimizes fan experience with a symmetrical field layout and expansive foul territory, making it a beloved venue in Major League Baseball.
