Do You Need A Ticket
Gallagher Square is inside Petco Park and so you will need to buy a ticket to get into the Padres game. Anyone inside the ballpark can wander over and explore, and vice-versa. There are no seats or assigned sections. It is all open lawn seating.
When there is no Padres game or event going on, you do not need a ticket to enter.
Lawn Seating Tickets
Gallagher Square Ticket Prices – Tickets for Gallagher Square seating can be purchased in the range of $30 – $65. Prices flex based on date, demand and quality of the Padres opponent. It’s tough to call it a bargain, but still the cheapest entry for
families at Petco! Especially
with babies. All tickets are general admission / standing room only (
SRO), so do not be confused. The general admission lawn passes are the only option. You may see or hear tickets to this section referred to as
PATP or
PATP1 (which stands for Park At The Park).
Before attending the game, read our Complete Guide To Gallagher Square.

Do my children need tickets to enter?
Yes. Children need tickets to attend games in the Gallagher Square unless they are under 36 inches. Children under 36 inches can enter Petco Park free without a ticket. (This is true in regular sections as well, as long as they sit on your lap and do not occupy a seat.)
