The stadium boasts a huge video board in the center field and another one in the 'Fans Plaza'. These video screens are 29 x 38 feet and 17 x 22 feet respectively. There are also over 500 screens beaming back the game throughout the stadium so that supporters dont miss a second of the action.

There are 8,500 carparking spaces at the stadium, the carpark was actually built on the site of the Braves old home 'The Atlanta-Fulton County Stadium' which was demolished in 1996 to coinside with the opening of Turner Field. A rather unusual aspect of the car park is the fact that it has an outline of the old stadiums playing field, home plate and base markers for the nostalgic supporter.
