Montgomery Biscuits to remain in the Capital City until at least 2040
The City of Montgomery and the Montgomery Biscuits have announced a 15-year lease renewal that will keep the club in the Capital City through 2040.
“The Montgomery Biscuits have been an integral part of our city’s cultural and economic fabric for two decades, and we’re proud to extend that partnership for another 15 years,” said City of Montgomery Mayor, Steven L. Reed.
Opened in 2004, Montgomery’s Riverwalk Stadium is a 7,000-seat facility constructed within a century-old train shed, preserving its historical architecture. The facility includes 20 luxury suites, picnic areas, a children’s playground, and “The Club Car Bar.
“Riverwalk Stadium, an historical monument, is one of the most charming and evergreen ballparks in Minor League Baseball,” said Lou DiBella, CEO and Managing Member of the Biscuits. “As renovated to meet MLB standards, and with the historic civil rights attractions and continued development of downtown Montgomery, there’s no place that we would rather be staying. We’re proud to be the Montgomery Biscuits and we will continue to be throughout this lease and well beyond.”
The franchise was established in 1973 as the Orlando Twins before relocating to Montgomery in 2004 and adopting the Biscuits moniker.
“We’re excited to extend our partnership with the Biscuits and continue building on what makes Riverwalk Stadium special,” City of Montgomery Parks and Recreation Director Brandon Dean said. “With the new batting tunnel and ongoing clubhouse construction, the fan and player experience only continue to improve. This renewal reflects our commitment to keeping Montgomery a premier destination for baseball and family fun.”
The Biscuits are the defending first and second-half champions in the Southern League’s South Division. They finished the 2024 season with an 80-57 record and advanced to the league championship series.
