Joe Albi Stadium

Joe Albi Stadium is a sports venue in Northwest Spokane with an artificial turf field housed in a concrete structure designed to hold up to 28,646 spectators. The facility includes multiple entrance gates, concession stands, and ample parking to accommodate crowds during events.

The facility opened in 1950 on land that previously served as a military hospital grounds and was initially called Memorial Stadium. It was renamed in 1962 to honor Joe Albi, a local advocate for sports.

The stadium serves as a central meeting place where high school football games, marching band competitions, and community events draw families and fans together throughout the school year. Local sports traditions and school pride are celebrated here during these gatherings.

Arrive early on event days to secure parking and avoid long lines at entrances. The venue is easy to navigate with clear access points and concession options throughout the grounds.

The original grass field was created using sod transferred from nearby Fort George Wright, connecting the venue to local military heritage. This unusual origin of the field remains a detail many visitors overlook when exploring the grounds.
