Summaryarrow

MetLife Stadium is an open-air multi-purpose venue located at the Meadowlands Sports Complex in East Rutherford, New Jersey, United States. It opened in 2010, replacing Giants Stadium, and is home to the New York Giants and New York Jets of the NFL. It was built at a cost of $1.6 billion, making it the most expensive stadium in the United States at the time of completion. The stadium has a seating capacity of 82,500, making it the largest stadium in New Jersey.

 

MetLife Stadium is one of two NFL stadiums shared by two teams, the other being SoFi Stadium in California. It has hosted several notable events, including Super Bowl XLVIII in 2014, WrestleMania 29 and 35, and international soccer matches. The venue is set to host the final of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, as well as multiple matches during the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup.

 

The design of the stadium accommodates both teams, with features like changeable lighting to display blue for the Giants and green for the Jets. Its façade includes aluminium louvers and a glass exterior, inspired by New York skyscrapers. The seating bowl is designed for optimal viewing with no overhangs obstructing sightlines.

 

The stadium is accessible by car and public transit, though pedestrian access is limited. It includes four locker rooms to accommodate both home teams and visitors. Environmental sustainability is a key focus, with features like a solar ring providing renewable energy.

 

MetLife Stadium is a frequent host of concerts and other events, including the Summer Jam festival and international conventions. It also holds the record for the highest attendance at the 12th Siyum HaShas, with 93,000 attendees in 2012. The stadium remains a hub for major sports and entertainment events in the region.
