Empower Field at Mile High, NFL stadium in Denver, United States
Empower Field at Mile High stands at 5,280 feet elevation with a seating capacity of 76,125 spectators across multiple levels of seating sections and premium areas.
The stadium commenced operations in September 2001, replacing the former Mile High Stadium as the principal venue for Denver Broncos football games and regional sports events.
During NFL games, spectators participate in the stadium tradition of shouting 'IN-COM-PLETE' whenever opposing teams fail to complete their passing plays.
The venue implements a clear bag policy for all events, requiring visitors to carry their belongings in transparent containers or small clutch bags for security purposes.
In August 2023, Ed Sheeran's concert drew 85,233 attendees, setting the record for the largest single event attendance in the stadium's history.

From the Narendra Modi Stadium in Motera, India, which hosts major cricket matches, to the vast American university arenas dedicated to football, and the May Day Stadium in Pyongyang, North Korea, these sports facilities demonstrate the scale that infrastructures for competitions and mass gatherings can reach.
