About Kino Main
Today, the Main Complex is just a component of the overall Kino Sports Complex site, but more than 20 years ago, this was the venue that started it all. Kino Sports Complex debuted in 1997 as an official Major League Baseball spring training site for the Arizona Diamondbacks and the Chicago White Sox. The Main Complex, which houses Kino Veterans Memorial Stadium, was built to MLB standards complete with clubhouses, private parking, practice fields, batting cages and more.
Since the departure of MLB, this facility now has the flexibility to host an array of events year-round. Annual events held here include Rock KFMA Day Concert, the Mexican Baseball Fiesta, Lights of the World, Cops & Rodders Show and the 4th of July Diamonds in the Sky Celebration to name a few. This venue has also been used for smaller-scale events, including weddings, birthday parties and baby showers.
