Great hometown feel to this minor league show. Stadium is old and classic. Atmosphere is kid-centered, but baseball fans like me still get what they come for. The prices are undeniably cheap.

Great little ball park with a fun family vibe. Cheap tickets for decent seats, the only place around to watch a baseball game. Make sure to check their website or their little pamphlets that have all the fun events and give aways through out the summer. Highly recommend the 25 cent hot dog night, very popular but a fun time! Go Lake Monsters!

Great fun for the whole family. Centennial field is a great old ballpark. Admission is cheap, the food is reasonably priced, and the merchandise covers the whole spectrum. There is paid parking close to the stadium, but it fills up quickly. You can also park for free at Gutterson field house and take a free bus.
The seating can be a little tight (I'm 6'3") but there is plenty of picnic tables along the foul lines.

We had a great time taking in a game while on vacation. The confines are a little small but it made for a more intimate experience to watch a game with the family. I believe capacity is around 4400 and there was an attendance of almost 1800 when we were there. We were able to get tickets for $9 each sitting in the seats right behind home plate. It was covered so we were out of the sun the whole time. Parking cost $4 right by the field. We were told there was free parking a ways down but with a 3 year old we took the close option. The concessions were about what you would expect in both cost and offerings for a minor league park. Be forewarned though, all concessions only accept cash. We didn't see that listed anywhere on the website so be sure you bring some money if you plan on eating or drinking. There are a couple of ATMs on site that you could utilize in case you forget. The staff were all friendly and helpful which was a nice bonus. All in all it was a great family experience. If we are ever back in Vermont taking in a Lake Monster game will surely be on our list!

Wonderful seating! Wonderful entertainment with the champ monster!! Also had a good time eating 25 cent hotdogs !! Those are the best game nights to hit ! Lol. The dancers that ate dressed up in hot dog suits are funny and entertaining as well. They really interact with the crowd and keep everyone in the loop the entire game ! I had an amazing experience with my boyfriend and I cant wait for our next Vermont Lake Monsters Game date!!

Our family loves going to Lake Monsters games! Every year we buy about 20 tickets through our town's annual Little League fundraiser. The Lake Monsters make it really easy to move your tickets to any game you want to attend. Just call or email them and they are happy to accommodate you whenever they can. I recommend sitting in the General Admission seats along the 3rd base side of the field as it is not in the direct sun.

I believe all the food and beverage is cash only. There is an ATM at the park. The food is what you would expect at a baseball game. Hot dogs, burgers, Cracker Jacks, popcorn, peanuts, etc. The selection of beer includes several local craft beverages including Fiddlehead IPA, 14th Star Valor, and Citizen Cider. I believe the most expensive beers are $6 for a 16oz cup.

The Lake Monsters play Single A Short Season baseball in the NY-Penn League. It is the first stop for most of the Oakland Athletics current year draft picks. Most of these players have just finished college and are playing their first pro ball. You will typically see most of the A's top draft picks. Players are often accessible before and after games for autographs.

The staff at the park is always friendly and helpful.

We look forward to going to games as often as we can.

The stadium is really well proportioned there's not a bad seat in the house. There's plenty of vendors was all your fan favorites pizza popcorn hot dogs hamburg's Italian sausage french fries and of course there's beer and soda and the prices are reasonable. There's plenty of bathrooms and they're kept clean and well-stocked. It's a family atmosphere where the children are treated well and they keep the kids entertained as well as the adults. It is definitely a family-friendly environment lots of fun great night out. A must-see in Burlington.

Very nice ballpark. As with most minor league parks, not a bad seat in the house. Plenty of things to keep the kids entertained with the fun zone next to right field and of course Champ, the team mascot is a kid favorite. The food was decent and a little over priced but they have to make up for the EXTREMELY inexpensive ticket prices somehow. Overall my kids and I head a very positive experience at Centennial Field. I would definitely go again. My kids, 16, 6 and 3 asked if we could come again before the game was even over. Oh the fireworks after the game were a very nice touch and they did a phenomenal job.

A great family, fun time for an affordable price. Parking is pretty easy or take the shuttle from UVM Gutterson. Not a bad seat in the place. Fun time watching single A short season baseball. This is way cheaper than a night at the movies.

This was a bit hard to find, and when we did, it was quite a walk. But once there, we enjoyed watching the game with friends. The kids are entertained by the Lakemonster's mascot, Champ, who will dance with kids during team changeovers. Good sound and video system! Fun outing!

Americana is alive and well in Vermont. We go every summer with the family. The stadium is pretty cool and they've installed new seats. The games are really fun to watch. They have cool merch with some nifty new hats. The food is about what you'd expect, which is great. You won't break the bank taking your pals to a ball game here.

You can park at UVM and take their free bus over to the stadium, as there's not a lot of parking there. Mind where you sit when it's warm out. I recommend spending a few extra bucks to sit nearer to home plate, otherwise you can be in full sun for a few hours. Bring sunscreen.

I am not a baseball fan, but I went to a game with friends. I would recommend sitting closer to the center so you can see the mascot and activities better.

We did the BBQ ticket (ticket that includes food). Our seats were on the fringes and uncovered. The food consisted of low quality hot dog and hamburger, plus cookies, chips, and a soda kor bottled water).

Overall, I dont think I need this experience again, but over all the stadium is fairly nice for a home team.

A great ballpark to visit! The historic park is awesome to sit and enjoy a game and the Fun Zone is perfect for crazy kiddos to bounce off energy while the parents can grab a drink and watch the game from a few feet away. Great people, awesome food, tons of fun!

Great game. And of course the lake monsters are a great team. Friendly and helpful staff. Clean stadium. The prices were very reasonable. Overall a terrific experience. Great place for a family night out. Plenty to keep small children occupied and they really try to interest the children in the stadium with their activities. Will absolutely be returning!
