Fitzpatrick Stadium, Public stadium in Portland, US.
Fitzpatrick Stadium is a multi-purpose facility in Portland with an artificial playing surface, rubberized track, and seating for about 6,300 spectators divided into home and away sections. The venue sits on Deering Avenue near Interstate 295 and other local sports facilities.
The facility was founded in 1930 as Portland Stadium and received its current name in 1989 to honor James J. Fitzpatrick, an important figure in Maine sports. The renaming marked a phase of stabilization and renewed commitment to the venue's future.
The stadium serves as the heart of Portland's sports community and gathering place for high school football and lacrosse competitions throughout the year. Local teams and fans regularly fill the bleachers for championships and league games.
The stadium is easy to reach by car and located near bus stops and other local services. Parking is available and the area is well connected, making visits convenient for spectators.
The venue is notable for a 1960 visit from presidential candidate John F. Kennedy, who delivered a campaign speech to a large crowd. This historical event connects the stadium to a significant moment in American political history.
