The Historic Jackie Robinson Ballpark

Set on an island in the Halifax River and possessing the charm of days gone by, Jackie Robinson Ballpark is renowned both for its rich history and the enduring appeal of watching America's favorite pastime. Originally named Daytona City Island Ballpark, the field opened for play in 1914 and is the oldest ballpark still used in Minor League Baseball. It is here that in 1946 Jackie Robinson broke the color barrier when he played in the first integrated, professional baseball game. Today, the ballpark is home to the Daytona Tortugas minor league team. It also hosts a museum that pays tribute to Robinson's athletic prowess and lasting legacy, and highlights other people of color who broke barriers of their own.

Additionally, those concerned about safety will appreciate the protective netting around the seating area.
