PHOENIX — The spectacle that is the roof opening at Chase Field before an Arizona Diamondbacks game is expected to be back for fans in 2025.
The team released a statement to ABC15 Friday saying:
"We still plan on having full roof functionality for the 2025 season."
It's not clear how much the repairs will cost, when they will take place, or who will be paying for them.

The roof has not been able to be opened with fans in Chase Field since 2022.
A pulley system issue was the reported cause of the original issues with the roof, along with leaks in the roof.
The roof is among a list of renovations the team says need to be made to the 30-year-old Chase Field.
The D-backs and Maricopa County officials have been at odds over who will pay for the repairs for years. So far over the offseason, no progress has been reported between the county and team when it comes to negotiations, and the team's contract with the county ends in 2027.
