San Francisco feels like it’s starting to come back. It officially will next month.
That’s after Wednesday’s announcement from the San Francisco Giants that they will reopen Oracle Park at full capacity starting on Friday, June 25, the first game of a three-game set vs. the Oakland A’s. This will be the first time that the Giants have opened up their venue completely (41,915 seats) since Bruce Bochy’s final game as manager on Sept. 29, 2019.
The decision to re-open Oracle Park comes after the State of California announced last week that large sporting venues are permitted to operate at full capacity without social distancing.
Starting with the June 25th home stand and for the remainder of the season, season ticket members will return to their original seat locations and single game tickets will be available for individuals, groups and special events, according to the Giants.
All home games played May 31-June 20 will still operate under previous social distancing and fully vaccinated section guidelines.
“California’s reopening on June 15 is an important milestone in our state’s recovery from the challenging and, for many, life changing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic,” said Giants President and CEO Larry Baer. “We have been working closely with the San Francisco Department of Health to safely implement these reopening guidelines at Oracle Park and we are excited to welcome even more fans back to Oracle Park next month.”
