What we know about Peoria Sports Complex

Where visiting fans stay

From a specialist guide
  • P83 Entertainment District, Peoria. 5 min by walk. Several hotels on Paradise Lane are about 0.3 miles from the gates, so you can walk to games, the practice fields and the bars.
  • North Glendale, within two miles. 10 min by drive. Many more hotel rooms sit within two miles of the ballpark in Peoria and Glendale, a short drive to the free lots.
  • Elsewhere in the Valley. 45 min by drive. Freeways are light in the middle of the day, so a central base works if you plan to see several ballparks.

Around the stadium

From a specialist guide
The P83 Entertainment District wraps the complex along 83rd Avenue and Paradise Lane, with hotels, chain and local restaurants and bars a short walk from the gates. La Quinta, Hampton Inn, Comfort Suites and Residence Inn sit about 0.3 miles from the ballpark.

After the final whistle

Checked at the source
Police route traffic out after games. Cars leaving by Mariners Way are sent south toward Thunderbird Road (turn west for Loop 101). Cars leaving by Stadium Way at 83rd Avenue are sent north toward Bell Road. Cars leaving Stadium Way at Paradise Lane are sent east toward 75th Avenue. Park on the side that matches where you are headed next.

One thing to avoid

From a specialist guide
Do not skip the practice fields. Both teams work out there in the morning for free, and batting practice happens there, not in the ballpark.
