Discover One of America’s Top Sports Towns
When it comes to great locations for sporting events, Baltimore is more than a contender. Our city is a frontrunner.
It all begins with our love of the game—a love that goes back generations and grows stronger by the year. This is the birthplace of Babe Ruth. The home of the Orioles and the Ravens. One of the jewels in horse racing’s triple crown. And we’re just getting started.
Easy to get to and affordable to visit, we’re increasingly the go-to city for sporting events large and small.
How We Stay In the Lead
Baltimore has everything you need for a sporting event and a great trip. First, we’re easy to get to. Fly in through BWI, drive here on I-95 or take the train into our downtown station.
Once you’re here, you’ll love how close everything is. Our hotels in the beautiful Inner Harbor are just minutes from many of our venues and all kinds of attractions.
When you’re not in the game, you can walk to restaurants, the National Aquarium, the Maryland Science Center, world-class museums, historic sites and more. Plus, Baltimore offers excellent affordability so you can get more out of your trip.
With so many advantages, it’s no surprise that Baltimore is a top choice for sports.
