$50M Renovation Project Planned For The Home Of Chesapeake Baysox, Prince George's Stadium

BOWIE, MD — Plans have been unveiled of a $50 million renovation to Prince George's Stadium in Bowie, home of the Chesapeake Baysox, the Double-A affiliate of the Baltimore Orioles.

Originally opened in 1994, Prince George’s Stadium is owned by the Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission and the Department of Parks and Recreation, Prince George’s County. The planned renovations are part of a broader initiative by the state of Maryland, which in 2022 authorized the Maryland Stadium Authority to issue up to $200 million for sports entertainment facilities across the state.

Attain Sports, which acquired the Chesapeake Baysox in 2021, holds a lease for Prince George’s Stadium through 2032, with options to play through 2042.

Construction has been projected to start in March 2025 and extend into 2026. The renovation work is not expected to disrupt the Chesapeake Baysox’s playing season.

M-NCPPC and Attain Sports also announced the installation of two new state-of-the-art videoboards for the 2025 season. These videoboards will enhance the fan experience by delivering high-definition, dynamic visuals and engaging in-game content, and an interactive atmosphere for baseball games and special events alike.

“Prince George’s Stadium has been a cherished gathering place for families, fans and the community for over 30 years, and these renovations mark an exciting new chapter in its history,” said Peter A. Shapiro, chair of the Prince George’s County Planning Board and M-NCPPC. “This project reflects our commitment to enhancing the quality of life for our residents by delivering state-of-the-art amenities and preserving this beloved venue as a hub for sports, entertainment and community pride. We are proud to work alongside our partners to ensure that Prince George’s Stadium continues to inspire and bring people together for generations to come.”
