Golden Park, Baseball stadium in Columbus, United States
Golden Park is a baseball stadium in Columbus, Georgia, with a red brick façade and landscaped sidewalks linking it to the Chattahoochee RiverWalk. Inside, rows of blue seats form a bowl around a green field ringed by a red running track and tan jumping pits, and a black roof structure carries a row of national flags.
Baseball has been played near this site since 1909, though the stadium itself opened in 1926. It was renovated in 1951 and again in 1995, when it became the first venue to host women's softball at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics. It hosted the 1997 SEC baseball tournament, and a $50 million renovation prepared it for the Mississippi Braves' move in 2025.
The ballpark's name honours Theodore Earnest Golden Sr., co-founder of Goldens' Foundry and Machine Co., who pushed for Columbus's first South Atlantic League team. In 2013 the Beep Baseball World Series final was played here: the Taiwan Homerun Team beat the Austin Blackhawks 5–2. Alternative Baseball brought its Playing for Community Integration Tour here in 2019 and 2023.
The red brick exterior connects to landscaped sidewalks leading to the Chattahoochee RiverWalk, so the stadium can be reached on foot along the river. The playing surface is circled by a red running track with tan jumping pits beyond the outfield, and a black roof structure carries a row of national flags.
Since 2025, the stadium serves as the home field for a Double-A affiliate of the Atlanta Braves. This new role followed a major renovation project that modernized the facility.
