Doak Campbell Stadium

Doak Campbell Stadium is a football stadium located on Florida State University's campus, serving as the home field for the Florida State Seminoles. The brick-clad structure has a seating capacity of approximately 79,560 and is surrounded by university buildings, classrooms, and student facilities.

The stadium was built in 1950 with a capacity of 15,000 seats and underwent multiple expansions over the decades. The final major expansion was completed in 2015, bringing the capacity to nearly 80,000.

The stadium features the Unconquered statue at its south entrance, depicting Osceola and Renegade to represent the Seminole people's heritage. This monument serves as a gathering point where visitors and fans pause to acknowledge this cultural symbol before games.

The stadium is located on Florida State University's campus and is accessible by public transportation. The surrounding university complex offers parking areas and visitor information centers to help guests navigate the grounds.

Before each home game at sunset, a ceremonial spear near the Unconquered statue is illuminated and remains lit until the following sunrise. This nightly ritual light creates a meaningful moment that honors the heritage and connection to the place.
