ABC Supply Stadium

ABC Supply Stadium anchors Beloit's downtown waterfront redevelopment along the Rock River — a public-private project that integrated the new ballpark, the riverwalk, and surrounding residential and retail along the river's east bank. The blocks immediately west are downtown Beloit's restored historic core (State Street and Grand Avenue). Beloit College's compact campus sits a short walk north. Beloit reads as a small Wisconsin-Illinois border city — much smaller than Madison or Milwaukee but with a meaningfully reinvested downtown waterfront anchored by the ballpark and the broader Diane Hendricks / ABC Supply local-philanthropy investments.

Plan to arrive about 45-60 minutes before first pitch — ABC Supply Stadium parking flow is gentle on most weeknight dates and busier on fireworks Fridays and giveaway nights. ABC Supply Stadium opened in August 2021 as the new home of the Beloit Snappers (rebranded as the Beloit Sky Carp ahead of the 2022 season), replacing the historic Pohlman Field on the city's east side. The ballpark was funded substantially by ABC Supply Co. and Hendricks Holding Co. (Diane Hendricks, Beloit's billionaire co-founder of ABC Supply, anchored the project) and is the canonical example of small-market private investment rebuilding an aging MiLB facility. The Sky Carp are the High-A Midwest League affiliate of the Miami Marlins (Beloit's previous Oakland Athletics affiliation moved to Lansing in the 2021 MiLB reorganization). The Sky Carp name refers to the leaping carp species of the Rock River — a tongue-in-cheek nod to the river that runs past the outfield. Mobile-only tickets are the norm. Bag policy and gate-open times shift season to season; confirm on the Sky Carp's site before going.

ABC Supply Stadium opened in August 2021 in downtown Beloit on the east bank of the Rock River, replacing the historic Pohlman Field on the city's east side. The ballpark seats around 3,500 — small even for the High-A level — and was funded substantially by ABC Supply Co. and Hendricks Holding Co., the Beloit-headquartered roofing-supply giant founded by Ken and Diane Hendricks. Diane Hendricks's continuing local investment anchored the broader Riverbend / waterfront redevelopment that the ballpark is part of. The Beloit franchise rebranded from the Snappers to the Beloit Sky Carp ahead of the 2022 season — the Sky Carp name refers to the Rock River's leaping carp species and is a tongue-in-cheek small-market identity move. The Sky Carp are the High-A Midwest League affiliate of the Miami Marlins (Beloit's previous longtime Oakland Athletics affiliation moved to Lansing in the 2021 MiLB reorganization). The ballpark sits directly on the Rock River with the riverwalk integration as the design signature.
