Alameda/Oakland Ferry Announces
Service to AT&T Park for San Francisco
Giants/Oakland A’s Exhibition Game

Today, the Alameda/Oakland Ferry Service announced that it will provide direct service between Oakland, Alameda and AT&T Park for the Friday and Sunday, March 31 and April 2, exhibition games between the San Francisco Giants and the Oakland A’s.

For Friday’s 7:15 PM game, the ferry departs Alameda Main Street at 6:10 PM and Oakland’s Jack London Square at 6:20 arriving at AT&T Park at 7:05. For Sunday’s 1:05 PM game, the ferry departs Oakland at 11:30 AM and Alameda at 11:50, arriving at AT&T Park at 12:20. The return ferry departs AT&T Park 20 minutes after the last out.

Baseball fans can purchase tickets onboard the ferry at time of departure. In addition to this weekend's games, the ferry will provide service between the east bay and AT&T for 29 Giants regular season weekday and weekend games starting with the April 7 evening game against Atlanta. That game features fireworks afterward, so the return ferry will not depart until 20 minutes after the fireworks end.

The Alameda/Oakland Ferry offers weekday and weekend service between Oakland’s Jack London Square, Alameda Main Street, the San Francisco Ferry Building, and San Francisco’s Pier 39. Seasonal service is also provided to AT&T Park for selected Giants games and on weekends to Angel Island State Park. Service amenities include free parking in Alameda, and full service onboard beverage and snack bar. Bicycles are welcome.
