Home venues in Ticket Timeline's game data
Buildings the Rays have called home in the attendance data Ticket Timeline uses—useful when an old ticket names a different building during the 2025 hurricane-repair season.
- Current home: Tropicana Field (1998–present)
- Temporary home: George M. Steinbrenner Field, Tampa, FL (2025 only)
Coverage in Ticket Timeline's game data starts in 1998—a data-coverage year, not a franchise-founding claim.
After Hurricane Milton damaged Tropicana Field's roof in October 2024, the Rays played the entire 2025 season at Steinbrenner Field—the Yankees' spring-training park in Tampa—before returning to a repaired Tropicana Field for 2026. If your ticket says Steinbrenner Field, that's a real Rays home game from that season, not a mistake.
Tampa Bay Rays play home games at Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg, FL, USA. Dates for those nights are anchored in St. Petersburg time. The building list above is what Ticket Timeline uses when an older ticket names a different Rays home, including the 2025 season at Steinbrenner Field.
Rebuild your Rays history
Use that timeline when dating a night: George M. Steinbrenner Field (2025 only) was a temporary Rays home during Tropicana Field's hurricane repairs, not a permanent move—Tropicana Field (1998–present) remains the franchise's only true home park. Rebuilding Rays attendance is usually a scavenger hunt: paper tickets and PDF confirmations, camera-roll scoreboard dates, calendar invites, season-ticket statements, and memory anchors (companions, rivals, life events, ballpark names on stubs). Work season by season; a partial list of attended games is enough to start matching opponents and ballparks. When confirmations live in Gmail, Find Your Games walks through a read-only preview before anything is committed. For a shoebox of stubs, see what to do with old ticket stubs.
