The opening of Fifth Third Park on April 1, 2025, has been warmly embraced by the local community and baseball fans alike. The park serves not only as the new home for the High-A affiliate team, the Hub City Spartanburgers, but also as a versatile venue for festivals and concerts, with a seating capacity of approximately 3,500 fixed seats but able to host up to 5,000 attendees for special events.
Alongside Swindell, the concert will feature special guests, including the James Radford Band and Gritty Flyright.

This participation aligns with the park’s vision of being a hub of entertainment and philanthropy in Spartanburg.
Fifth Third Park aims to enhance the local culture by becoming a prime dining and entertainment destination. The stadium features wide concourses to improve traffic flow and a system of self-serve concessions to enhance the fan experience, significantly reducing wait times. These amenities make Fifth Third Park suitable for various community events beyond baseball, catering to a wide range of interests.
As the General Manager of the Spartanburgers highlighted, the concert represents a significant milestone for Spartanburg. The park’s design includes a large multi-purpose club area, which will be available for gatherings on non-game days, making it a year-round attraction.
In addition to providing entertainment, the concert aims to combine enjoyment with philanthropy by contributing to local charities and community initiatives. Cole Swindell’s participation in the BMW Charity Pro-Am tournament further underscores this mission, as the event is known for its charitable focus.
As Spartanburg looks forward to the concert and the many events that will follow at Fifth Third Park, community members are excited about the opportunities for connection and entertainment that this new venue will provide. The combination of live music, sports, and community engagement is set to enrich the local landscape.
