L&N Federal Credit Union Stadium, Football stadium in Louisville, United States.
L&N Federal Credit Union Stadium is a sports venue at the University of Louisville with modern architecture and seating for roughly 55,000 people. The facility features artificial turf, multi-level sections, and various amenities throughout its structure.
The current facility opened in 1998 and replaced an older stadium that stood since 1956. The building has changed names multiple times, reflecting business changes and new sponsorships.
The stadium underwent a name change in 2018 from Papa John's Cardinal Stadium to Cardinal Stadium following corporate controversies before adopting its current name.
The stadium sits at the southern end of the University of Louisville campus and is straightforward to locate. Visitors should allow time for parking and arrival, as it is a large venue hosting many events.
The name L&N comes from a railroad credit union that originally served workers from the Louisville and Nashville Railroad, whose terminal once stood on this very land. This connection ties the stadium directly to the city's transportation heritage.
