A downtown ballpark outing

Petco Park sits in downtown San Diego, where a game can be part of a longer day of walking and meeting friends. Check the forecast for that wider outing, including the time before you take your seat.

A marine layer is not a seat forecast

Coastal cloud can change during the day. The area forecast does not show direct exposure at a particular row, and the shelter available while walking through the park can differ from your seating area.

Day games and early arrivals

For an afternoon game, look through the later innings on the curve. For an evening start, pay attention to the hours you plan to arrive and wait outside. Use the Padres' current visitor information for gates and entry rules, rather than relying on the UV chart for event details.

Sun protection tips for Petco Park

  • Bring covering clothing, a hat and sunglasses for exposed parts of the visit.
  • Use sunscreen according to its label during longer outdoor stretches.
  • Recheck the hours if your downtown plans extend beyond the game.
