Hornet Stadium, Football stadium in Montgomery, US.
ASU Stadium, known as Hornet Stadium, is the American football ground on the Alabama State University campus in Montgomery, Alabama. It seats 26,500 and was built so that capacity could later be raised to 55,000. The facility also holds a restaurant and retail space used year-round.
Construction of this sports facility began in the early 2010s and was completed with its official opening in 2012. Since that time, it has served as home to the Alabama State University Hornets football team.
The stadium serves as a gathering place for Alabama State University and the wider community, hosting not just football matches but also other sports events and public gatherings that shape local life.
The stadium sits conveniently near the intersection of Interstate 85 and Interstate 65, making it straightforward to reach from multiple directions. During major events, parking fills quickly, so arriving early helps secure a spot closer to the entrance.
The stadium was designed so its 26,500 seats could later be expanded to 55,000. Its first game, the 89th Turkey Day Classic on November 22, 2012, sold out and was shown nationally on ESPNU; Tuskegee beat the Hornets 27–25. A restaurant and retail space let the building serve visitors outside game days.
