The Bullpen Concerts

Open air bar and music place. Near Nationals stadium. Large selection of beverages and good music. Vendors were courteous.

The Bullpen is an absolute gem for any baseball fan visiting Washington, D. C. Located just steps away from the Washington Nationals Park, this vibrant pre-game spot offers an unforgettable experience with free admission, live music, and ice-cold drinks that perfectly complement the game day excitement. Upon entering The Bullpen, I was immediately drawn to its lively atmosphere. The open-air layout creates a fantastic social setting, buzzing with the energy of fellow fans and live music performances. The fact that there is no admission fee makes it more appealing, providing an inclusive and welcoming environment for everyone. The Bullpen's proximity to Nationals Park is a huge advantage. It allows you to soak up the pre-game atmosphere without having to worry about rushing to the stadium. I loved being able to immerse myself in the baseball fervor while knowing that I was just a short walk away from witnessing the Nationals in action. Overall, The Bullpen exceeded my expectations as a pre-game destination. With its free admission, fantastic live music, and refreshing drinks, it provided the perfect atmosphere to get into the game day spirit. Whether you're a die-hard baseball enthusiast or simply looking for a vibrant and entertaining experience, The Bullpen is a must-visit spot before catching a Nationals game. I can't wait to return on my next visit to Nationals Park!

This is absolutely not my scene. I dread loud music, beer, and feeling like I’m in the thunder dome. And going into it I was miserable. And that changed fast. The crowd was fun and friendly, the band played a huge mix of music, not just the AC/DC style songs you’d expect. And overall it was a good time. But don’t expect good drinks or any form of selection.

Crazy fun place! Bring your good time attitude. A open yard with drink and food. Great comradery!

Fun, pregame experience with band, lower priced food and beer than in stadium.
