PETCO Park is a stadium in downtown San Diego, California. Opened in 2004, it replaced Qualcomm Stadium as the home park of the San Diego Padres. The stadium is named after the pet food retailer PETCO, which paid for the naming rights. The construction was partially funded by the San Diego Redevelopment Agency, and the stadium is intended to be part of a comprehensive plan to revitalize San Diego's aging downtown, particularly the Gaslamp Quarter. The stadium is in close proximity to the San Diego Convention Center.
