Bank of America Stadium, NFL and MLS stadium in Charlotte, United States.
Bank of America Stadium is an NFL and MLS venue in Charlotte's Third Ward district with an open-air design and natural grass surface. The facility offers 73778 seats and integrates well into the urban landscape through its central location.
The facility was designed by architecture firm Populous and opened on September 14, 1996, as the permanent home of the Carolina Panthers. The venue developed over the following decades into one of the most important sports locations in the southeastern United States.
The venue carries the name of one of America's largest banks, which has held naming rights since 2004 and reinforces its presence throughout the region. Visitors notice the connection between finance and sports culture, which are closely woven together in modern Charlotte.
Visitors can reach the venue through several transport options, including public transit connections and designated rideshare zones. Multiple parking lots are available, though early arrival helps with orientation during large events.
The venue served as a public voting site during the 2020 elections, where around 13000 residents cast their ballots. This unusual use shows how flexible large sports facilities can be during times of crisis.
