Frommers® Area Guide

Spectator Sports

Content Provided by Frommers

Tickets to most games, including those of the Trail Blazers and the Portland Beavers, are sold through Ticketmaster (tel. 503/224-4400).

Tickets to events at the Rose Garden arena and Memorial Coliseum are also sold through the Rose Quarter box office (tel. 503/797-9617). The Rose Garden arena is home to the Portland Trail Blazers and is the main focal point of Portland's Rose Quarter. This sports and entertainment neighborhood includes the Rose Garden, Memorial Coliseum, and several restaurants and bars. To reach the Rose Garden or adjacent Memorial Coliseum, take the Rose Quarter exit off I-5. Parking is expensive, so you might want to consider taking the MAX light-rail line from downtown Portland (the Rose Quarter stop is in the Fareless Square).

Auto Racing

Portland International Raceway, West Delta Park, 1940 N. Victory Blvd. (tel. 503/823-RACE), hosts road races, drag races, motorcross and other motorcycle races, go-kart races, and even vintage-car races. February through October are the busiest months here.

Baseball

The Portland Beavers Baseball Club (tel. 503/553-5400 or 503/224-4400 for tickets), the AAA affiliate of the San Diego Padres, plays minor-league ball at PGE Park, SW 20th Avenue and Morrison Street. Tickets are $7 to $12.

Basketball

The NBA's Portland Trail Blazers (tel. 503/231-8000 or 503/797-9619) do well enough each year to have earned them a very loyal following. Unfortunately, they have a habit of not quite making it all the way to the top. The Blazers pound the boards at the Rose Garden arena. Call for current schedule and ticket information. Tickets are $10 to $131. If the Blazers are doing well, you can bet that tickets will be hard to come by.
