- What's new at Progressive Field? Guardians unveil renovations, new food items for 2025
CLEVELAND — The Guardians will unveil another phase of their on-going " Progressive Field Reimagined " project on Tuesday for their home opener against the Chicago White Sox — if the weather plays along, of course.
For the second season in a row, the Guardians opened the regular season with an extended road trip to allow for a couple extra weeks of construction time to work on the renovations and ensure the park is ready for its opening day, although it could be a frosty atmosphere for baseball.

The team hosted local media to preview all of the changes for the 2025 season with a " What's New " event.
Here are the highlights.
The Cleveland Guardians unveil "What's New" at Progressive Field ahead of their 2025 home opener, including the view from the new North Coast Social area, on April 4, 2025.
Terrace Hall, North Coast Social
In terms of fan experience, the largest change involves the area down the left-field line that used to be known as the Terrace Club, a windowed section of seating.
The Terrace Hall is a "reimagined" beer hall connecting indoor and outdoor spaces. This area features the CLEVELAND bar globe light above the bar.
The North Coast Social offers semi-private, open-air Terrace Box seating that includes exclusive access to an indoor lounge and preferred parking. The area has more of a group-seating feel to it, and the seats themselves can be heated.

This section used to be involved in windows. The Terrace Garden rooftop patio opened a year ago, and the North Coast Social and Terrace Hall areas join it as renovated parts of the ballpark.

Progressive Field transitioning to blue seats
A much larger section of seats at Progressive field will be blue in 2025, the continuation of a process that began last year and is expected to be completed before Opening Day 2026. A Diamond "C" logo also now appears in the seating in the upper deck behind home plate.
