How families can join the Detroit Tigers’ postseason fun: Drone show, block parties and kid-ready tips

October baseball is back in Detroit and there are lots of ways families can enjoy the fun.

The Detroit Tigers are rolling out free fun, from a skyline drone show over Comerica Park to open-to-all block parties with music, food trucks, and photo ops. 

The Tigers face the Seattle Mariners in the American League Division Series. It’s a best-of-five that starts in Seattle before shifting to Detroit on Tuesday.

Below is what parents need to know to plan a great postseason. Go Tigers!

Free drone show over Comerica Park

The Tigers will host a free Postseason Drone Show on Monday and families can watch from Columbia Street by the Fox Theatre with no ticket required. See details on the Tigers Postseason page.

Block parties before home games

The team will host free “Built for October” Block Parties outside Comerica Park before ALDS home games, and the events will take place on Witherell Street and begin three hours before first pitch.

Families can expect live music, on-site broadcasts, food trucks, retail carts, a trading-card photo booth, a 360-degree camera and additional photo opportunities at these block parties. 

Treat stop for kids: Huddle Soft Serve

Families can visit Huddle Soft Serve (2 John R St., Detroit) for a complimentary “Built for October” cone while supplies last, and the team notes that PAWS and the Rally Cats may make appearances.

Team gear and hours for The D Shop

The D Shop is open 9 a.m.–7 p.m. and shoppers can receive 30-minute validated parking in the Tigers Garage by showing their garage ticket at checkout. 

Parking and arrival tips

Official details on parking, shuttle service and ADA access are available on the Tigers’ website. The page also lists the shuttle drop-off and pickup area on Clifford between Elizabeth and Columbia and Fisher Freeway. Plan your arrival using the Comerica Park Parking page at mlb.com/tigers/ballpark/transportation/parking.

How to watch and listen

Games air on FS1 with radio on 97.1 FM, while Spanish audio is available via the Audacy app in Michigan, the MLB app and 1310 AM/107.9 FM in Detroit. Check the “How to Watch” section on the Tigers Postseason page for the latest times.
