Orioles Name New Camden Yards Premium Club After Truist Financial

The Baltimore Orioles' current press box at Camden Yards is getting a luxury makeover. The team announced a multi-year sponsorship deal with Truist Financial Corporation on March 19 that hands naming rights for the new behind-home-plate premium space to the Charlotte-based bank, which becomes the "Official Bank of the Baltimore Orioles" under the agreement.

The Truist Club will replace the existing press box with what the team describes as the ballpark's first-ever premium club in that location, offering both indoor and outdoor viewing options, VIP parking, a private entrance, and a rotating upscale menu and beverage program. Members will also gain access to field-level batting practice sessions and "baseball IQ" events featuring intimate conversations with Orioles baseball and business executives.

Capacity figures varied across reports published Wednesday. The Baltimore Sun and Sports Yahoo described a 350-seat club, while Fox45's Alexa Dikos reported an exclusive 380-member capacity. The Orioles' official announcement did not specify a figure in publicly available excerpts, and the discrepancy has not been resolved.

"We are thrilled to launch this partnership with Truist and even more excited as we approach Opening Day and the official debut of the Truist Club," said Catie Griggs, the Orioles' President of Business Operations. "We are proud to align with an organization that shares our belief that sports, at their best, have the power to inspire and uplift the communities we call home."

Sherry Graziano, Truist's Head of Digital, Client Experience and Marketing, framed the deal in community terms as well. "We see this partnership as a catalyst for deeper relationships with the Orioles, our clients and the Baltimore community," she said. "Together, we have a unique opportunity to collaborate in ways that drive growth, elevate the fan experience and deliver meaningful outcomes for the community."

Construction is scheduled to begin after the 2025 season concludes, positioning the Truist Club for its debut at the start of the 2026 campaign. Financial terms were not disclosed, and Truist declined to comment on the total duration of the deal.

Not everyone welcomed the news without reservation. On LinkedIn, one commenter wrote: "Please do not take away behind home plate seating for corporate seating. This is what makes OPACY special and different. We don't want to be Nats Park!" The concern captures a tension familiar to any fan base watching a historic ballpark reconfigure itself for premium revenue, even as the team insists the renovation is part of a broader, ongoing upgrade of Camden Yards.
