Published on April 02, 2026

DENVER - Purple preparations are underway ahead of the Rockies' home opener at Coors Field on Friday! A Denver Department of Transportation and Infrastructure (DOTI) crew painted a purple stripe along Blake Street from 22nd to 19th streets and added a few Rockies logos along the way! The painting of the purple stripe began in 1995, when the Rockies held their first home opener at Coors Field, and it has become an annual tradition ever since!
