Truist Park opened in 2017 as SunTrust Park. The name change represents the continuation of the naming-rights partnership with the Braves that was first announced in 2014. The Braves hosted a soft opening for season ticket holders on March 31st, 2017, in a preseason game against the New York Yankees. The first regular season game at the park was held on April 14th, 2017, against the San Diego Padres.

Truist Park is described as the perfect marriage of classic ballpark feel, modern amenities, and southern hospitality, which creates a fan experience unlike any other.
