Get your team together and play in a safe environment on the concourse. Social distancing will be in effect, so team sizes will be a maximum of four people.

Historic Nat Bailey Stadium was built in 1951, opening at Capilano Stadium. It was renamed 1978 to honour the work of Vancouver restaurateur (and founder of the White Spot restaurant chain) Nat Bailey after his death to honour his tireless effort to promote baseball in Vancouver.
If you’re missing baseball, social events, and stadium beers n’ popcorn, this is the event for you. Contact Steven at the number and/or email provided on this page for booking your spot.
