About American Family Field Events

The Milwaukee Brewers moved into American Family Field after it was completed in 2001. The park is located next to the site of the Brewers’ former home, Milwaukee County Stadium. Most of the old stadium’s land has been converted into parking for American Family Field, but the site of Milwaukee County Stadium’s former infield is still used as a Little League field. The naming rights to the Brewers’ stadium are aptly owned by Miller Brewing Company, which is based in Milwaukee and brews in Milwaukee and Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin.

American Family Field’s distinctive feature is a fan-shaped retractable roof that can open and close in under ten minutes. With the roof closed, the park and seating area can be heated 30 to degrees warmer than the outside temperature. Wisconsin’s weather can be cold at the beginning and end of the baseball season, and the roof ensures a comfortable experience for both fans and players. Other MLB teams have also had to make use of American Family Field’s roof: a snowstorm forced an Indians-Angels series to move from Ohio to Milwaukee in 2007, and the effects of 2008’s Hurricane Ike in Houston moved an Astros-Cubs series to American Family Field. Carlos Zambrano of the Cubs threw a no-hitter in one of the relocated games, making American Family Field the site of MLB’s first neutral site no-hitter.

The 2002 MLB All-Star Game was held in American Family Field. The finale of the 2002 game was of the most controversial in All-Star Game history: it ended in a 7-7 tie, as both teams ran out of usable pitchers after the 11th inning. American Family Field was a site for the National League Championship Series in 2011. The Brewers have not been to the World Series since American Family Field opened.

A number of musical acts have also played at American Family Field. Recent performers include Kenny Chesney, One Direction, and Paul McCartney.
