AdventHealth Stadium

AdventHealth Stadium sits in a commercial corridor on the east side of Rome along U.S. 411 — the immediate ballpark blocks are surface lots and light commercial. Downtown Rome, the historic three-rivers downtown at the confluence of the Etowah, Oostanaula, and Coosa Rivers, sits a short drive west and is the canonical walkable historic-downtown district for the region. Berry College — the world's largest college campus by acreage, with the iconic Ford Buildings and gothic-style stone architecture — sits a short drive north and is a regional sightseeing draw. The Chieftains Museum (the home of Cherokee leader Major Ridge) and the Rome Area History Museum sit downtown. The neighborhood reads as a small-city downtown-adjacent ballpark with downtown Rome's three-rivers walkable historic core as the canonical pre-game pairing.

Plan to arrive about 45-60 minutes before first pitch — Braves Boulevard parking flow is gentle on most weeknight dates and picks up on fireworks Fridays. Important context: this is the AdventHealth Stadium home of the Rome Emperors, the franchise that rebranded from the Rome Braves following the 2023 season. The team plays as the Single-A South Atlantic League affiliate of the Atlanta Braves (a continuous affiliation since the ballpark opened in 2003) — the Emperors rebrand kept the Atlanta Braves affiliation in place while moving away from the prior parent-affiliated name. The Emperors identity nods to Rome's namesake (Rome, Italy) and Roman imperial iconography. The naming-rights agreement is with AdventHealth, the regional Florida-and-Southeast-headquartered health-care system. Mobile-only tickets are the norm. Bag policy and gate-open times shift season to season; confirm on the Emperors' site before going.

AdventHealth Stadium opened in 2003 as State Mutual Stadium in Rome, Georgia (later renamed for AdventHealth under the regional health-care system's naming-rights agreement). The ballpark is the home of the Rome Emperors, the Atlanta Braves' Single-A South Atlantic League affiliate. The franchise rebranded from the Rome Braves to the Rome Emperors following the 2023 season — the Atlanta Braves Single-A affiliation continued through the rebrand, with the new Emperors identity nodding to Rome's namesake (Rome, Italy) and Roman imperial iconography rather than the previous parent-affiliated name. The franchise has been an Atlanta Braves affiliate continuously since the ballpark opened. Capacity sits around 5,105. The ballpark is owned by Floyd County and the City of Rome. The 2021 MLB minor-league reorganization moved the franchise from the original SAL into the realigned Single-A SAL — same level, renamed structure.
