Welcome

Fifth Third Ballpark has been a part of the West Michigan community and home to the West Michigan Whitecaps Minor League Baseball team since 1994. In recent years, the 10,000-seat facility has become an entertainment destination for anything from a business meeting for 10 to a full-scale company picnic for 8,000. It’s a great way to make a “major league” impression on a “minor league” budget. Take a look inside to see how Fifth Third Ballpark could be a viable option for your next corporate function.

Hosting our company picnic at Fifth Third Ballpark was a homerun for Gentex. Employees were able to enjoy carnival rides, lawn games, bingo, a concert, fireworks and much more with their families. The park staff made sure the day ran smoothly which allowed all of our team members to have a ball and not worry about logistics for the event. The park allowed us a great space to host our event where we were encouraged to bring our company culture; this made our team members and their families feel right at home. Bruce Los, Senior Vice President, Gentex Corporation

The Pepsi Stadium Club is one of our favorite venues because it’s a large versatile space with a unique view. We have used it for a variety of functions, including holiday parties and training sessions. It’s easy to get to, and there’s plenty of parking. Janet Mason, President & General Manager, WZZM 13
