The Colorado Rockies received permission from the state of Colorado to host 21,363 fans at Coors Field, at 42.6 percent capacity, an increase of the originally approved 12,500 fans.
“We couldn’t be happier to be inviting Rockies fans back into Coors Field,” said Rockies COO Greg Feasel via press statement. “It took a lot of hard work from a lot of people, and we thank the State of Colorado, the City and County of Denver, and their health officials, along with MLB for partnering with us to ensure that our thorough and detailed plan complies with all health and safety measures.”
The Rockies will begin selling tickets to April home games on March 11, with Rockies Plan Holders receiving first opportunity to secure tickets for the first homestand. If inventory allows, ticket on-sale dates for the general public will be determined and announced at a later date.
