Fenway Park, opened in 1912, and Wrigley Field from 1914, are the oldest MLB stadiums, reflecting a deep history in baseball. The third-oldest venue, Dodger Stadium, opened in 1962, highlighting a significant drop-off in age among active ballparks. Recent years have slowed new stadium construction, with the last major openings being Globe Life Field in 2020 and Truist Park in 2017. The Athletics are planning to move to Las Vegas, which will provide MLB’s newest venue, while the Tampa Bay Rays are also looking to secure a new location.
