Neighbors Furious as Oracle Park Leaves Its Floodlights on In the Wee Hours of the Morning
"The San Francisco Giants' 2025 season has been over for a week and a half now. Which makes it all the more curious that Mission Local ran a story Monday that the Oracle Park lights have been shining very brightly as late as 3 or 4 am, and in fact, the floodlights atop the park were on seemingly at full blast as recently as this past Friday morning at 3 am."
"A montage of neighbors' photos can be seen in the above tweet, taken by South Beach resident Daniel Conrad, who lives right near the park. I took the photos at 11:35 pm; 1:27 am; and 4:31 am, he wrote in July to the Port of San Francisco, which has jurisdiction over Oracle Park. The lights are very bright. Of course, July was during baseball season, though the late-night light blasts have continued since the season ended."
Oracle Park floodlights have frequently stayed on late into the night and early morning even after the Giants' season concluded. Neighbors report bright-white lights shining as late as 3 to 4:30 am and say the illumination disrupts sleep. A South Beach resident documented photos taken at 11:35 pm, 1:27 am, and 4:31 am and raised concerns with the Port of San Francisco, which oversees the park. The lease requires primary sports lights to be turned off within a reasonable time after the public exits, with lighting thereafter limited to the minimum necessary for cleanup. Non-baseball events and private rentals may contribute to the late-night lighting.
