About Angel Stadium

Angel Stadium

Planning a trip to catch America's pastime in sunny Southern California? You'll find the Los Angeles Angels playing at their longtime Orange County home, where they've been delighting fans since 1966. Located in Anaheim—yes, that means you can combine a ballgame with a Disneyland visit!—this classic ballpark has been the team's anchor for nearly six decades. The Angels made the move down the freeway from Los Angeles after spending their early years bouncing between venues in the city, finally settling into their own purpose-built stadium that broke ground in 1964.

What makes the Angels particularly special in California baseball lore? They're actually the state's original Major League Baseball franchise, founded in 1961 as an expansion team. While the Dodgers and Giants get plenty of attention, those clubs were transplants from New York—the Angels were born right here in the Golden State. Whether you're a baseball history buff or just looking for a great afternoon under the California sun, Angel Stadium offers that perfect blend of nostalgia and modern amenities that makes for an unforgettable game day experience.
