Princeton University Stadium

Princeton University Stadium is a football venue located on the university campus in New Jersey. The facility features a horseshoe-shaped design with seating tiers arranged to accommodate around 27,000 spectators in an open-air setting.

The stadium opened in 1998 and replaced an older athletic facility that had served the university since the early 1900s. This new construction marked a major upgrade to support the football program with modern amenities.

The Tigers name represents a long tradition in American college football that connects the stadium to student life and community pride. Fans gather here for a sport that has deep roots in the university's identity.

Visiting is best during football season when home games are played, and checking the schedule ahead of time helps plan your visit. The stadium sits on campus, making it accessible as part of a broader university exploration.

The stadium includes a rock climbing wall built into its structural design, an unexpected feature that extends beyond traditional sports use. This addition reflects the integration of recreational activities within the athletic complex.
