Baseball Canada Cup 2024

August 7th - 11th at MacDonald Island Park, Fort McMurray Wood Buffalo

Venues and Where to Park

The main venue is Legacy Dodge Field at Shell Place located at MacDonald Island Park, Canada's largest community leisure recreation centre. The baseball stadium is located in a section of the building called Shell Place. Parking near the stadium will be ideal so head to the right when you enter the facility parking lot and you will see the stadium box office and entrance.

Ross Hennigar Park is located in Thickwood neighbourhood, and is home to the local Fort McMurray Minor Baseball Association. Parking here is limited. There is a small parking lot at the entrance to the field so you will want to arrive early to secure yourself a spot. The field is located in a residential area so if you can’t find a parking spot you may have to utilize on street parking – just be aware of any parking restrictions.

Parking at both venues is free of charge.
