Pratt & Whitney Stadium, American football stadium in East Hartford, United States
The stadium contains 40,000 seats arranged in a horseshoe configuration, with modern facilities spread across multiple levels of concrete and steel construction.
The site transformed from Rentschler Airfield, a former Pratt & Whitney testing ground established in 1931, to a sports venue that opened in 2003.
The University of Connecticut Huskies football team maintains this stadium as their home field, fostering collegiate sports traditions throughout Connecticut.
The stadium features wide concourses, multiple concession areas, accessible restrooms, and 4,000 parking spaces directly adjacent to the facility.
The field surface retains its original name 'Rentschler Field' despite the 2015 facility renaming to Pratt & Whitney Stadium.
