Looking for peanut-free baseball? Here's an up-to-date list of Major League, Minor League, and Independent League teams that have announced peanut-free sections or games, plus information on how to buy tickets. Where the ticket link isn't specific to the peanut-free promotion, I've also included contact information for customer service so that you can ensure that you're placed in the proper part of the stadium.
Before you buy tickets to a peanut-free ballgame, you should be aware that ballparks vary in their outside food policies. Some ballparks forbid outside food entirely, while others make no restrictions. Likewise, some of these promotions will only restrict peanuts and, perhaps, tree nuts in the concession areas closest to the peanut-free seating, while others may not sell any peanut-containing products anywhere during the game. Call customer relations before purchasing your tickets if you have any questions about the particulars of the promotion, and always bring any emergency medication your doctor has recommended.
Do you know of a peanut-free game I should include on this list? Send me an e-mail and I'll be happy to add it.
