Overview

About U.S. Bank Stadium

U.S. Bank Stadium seats about 66,655 (expandable toward 70,000+ for events like the Super Bowl and Final Four) across a lower level (100s), a club level (200s) and a steep upper level (300s), all under a fixed translucent roof. Lower-level sideline seats near midfield are the best overall, the club level adds indoor comfort, and the upper deck is loud and great value. Because the roof is fixed, games are climate-protected year-round with natural light. It also hosts concerts, college basketball Final Fours, baseball and major events.

A striking angular building with a fixed roof made largely of translucent ETFE that floods the interior with daylight while keeping out Minnesota winters, plus five giant pivoting glass doors on the west end. Its prow-like profile has earned it the nickname the Ship, and the clear roof gives it a bright, indoor-outdoor feel.
