BALLPARK ENHANCEMENTS
Astros fans visiting Minute Maid Park in 2008 will notice several changes to the home of Astros Baseball! Most notable is the fresh, new look throughout the Main Concourse. Fans have shown their Astros spirit by filling the stands with Astros red, and we have followed suit by bringing this powerful color to our main level. Below is a list of other enhancements we have been working on this offseason - we hope you enjoy it!

BALLPARK SIGNAGE
In addition to adding the Astros red to the Main Concourse, we have also added new ballpark signage. This signage is fan-friendly with better direction to help you find your way around the ballpark and includes the popular Astros star. Everyone who enters Minute Maid Park will know this is the home of Astros Baseball!
