MLB stadiums with roofs in 2026

| Ballpark | Team | Roof | Movement | What makes it different | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rogers Centre | Toronto Blue Jays | Retractable roof | About 25 minutes | Three moving panels and one fixed panel turn the park into an open-air venue. | MLB |
| Chase Field | Arizona Diamondbacks | Retractable roof | About 4½ minutes | Two roof sections can move together or separately from the middle of the park. | MLB |
| T-Mobile Park | Seattle Mariners | Retractable roof | About 10–20 minutes | The moving cover works like an umbrella: it protects against rain but does not enclose the park. | MLB |
| Daikin Park | Houston Astros | Retractable roof | About 12–20 minutes | Three moving panels retract off the playing area and preserve a view of Houston through the glass west wall. | MLB |
| American Family Field | Milwaukee Brewers | Retractable roof | Less than 10 minutes | Its fan-shaped convertible roof is the only one of its kind in North America. | MLB |
| loanDepot park | Miami Marlins | Retractable roof | About 13–15 minutes | Three operable panels can also move separately to create shade over parts of the park. | MLB |
| Globe Life Field | Texas Rangers | Retractable roof | About 12 minutes | The 5.5-acre single-panel roof includes clear sections that bring natural light inside. | MLB |
| Tropicana Field | Tampa Bay Rays | Fixed roof | Does not open | The cable-supported dome was rebuilt after Hurricane Milton, and the Rays returned home in 2026. | MLB |
Which MLB stadiums have retractable roofs?
Seven MLB stadiums have retractable roofs in 2026: Rogers Centre, Chase Field, T-Mobile Park, Daikin Park, American Family Field, loanDepot park, and Globe Life Field.
Each system moves in a different way. Chase Field opens from the middle, American Family Field uses a fan-shaped design, and T-Mobile Park moves a cover over the field without sealing the seating bowl from outside air.
Which MLB stadium has a fixed dome?
Tropicana Field is the only current MLB home park with a fixed dome. Its roof does not open. The Rays returned there in April 2026 after a rebuilt roof replaced the panels damaged by Hurricane Milton in October 2024.
A fixed dome and a retractable roof both protect a game from rain, but only the retractable systems can switch between open-air and enclosed conditions.
Does T-Mobile Park become an indoor stadium?
No. The Mariners describe T-Mobile Park's roof as a large umbrella. It slides over the field and seats for rain protection, but the sides remain open, so the park keeps outside air and temperatures.
That makes Seattle's design different from parks that can close the roof and air-condition the full seating bowl.
Who decides whether the roof is open or closed?
Roof decisions depend on the park, weather, temperature, and MLB rules. Clubs publish roof status through their own game information, ballpark pages, or social channels, and plans can change before first pitch.
Check the home club's official game information on the day you attend. A stadium having a retractable roof does not mean it will be open for your game.
Track roof-open and roof-closed visits separately
A roof position does not create a new ballpark in a passport, but it can make two visits feel different. Save the roof status in your game note if it shaped the view, weather, sound, or memory.
Gamebook ties that note to the game, park, seat, score, players, photos, and companions so the detail stays with the visit you remember.
