Spring Training is quickly approaching, and the Detroit Tigers are prepared to head South for a month-long stay in Lakeland, Florida.
The Tigers' first Spring Training game is on Feb. 22, 2025, against the Philadelphia Phillies. One action-packed month later, the Tigers conclude Spring Training with a March 25 matchup against the San Francisco Giants.
Here's how to plan your Spring Training trip:
Tigers' home games are held at Publix Field at Joker Marchant Stadium, typically home of the Lakeland Flying Tigers.
The Tampa International Airport is the closest neighboring airport and a 45-minute drive from Joker Marchant Stadium. The Lakeland Linder Airport offers flights to and from select locations via Avelo Airlines. Book your flight through TripAdvisor or Booking.com for discounted rates.
Stay in Tampa and catch a glimpse at the city life, or enjoy all that Lakeland offers with a local hotel. Take a look at available lodging options on TripAdvisor or Hotels.com for a broad view, or narrow your search to Hilton or Marriott.
