Dix Stadium

Dix Stadium is a sports facility at Kent State University in Ohio used primarily for football games. It contains modern scoreboards, multiple concession stands, and updated seating areas throughout the grounds.

The facility first opened on September 13, 1969, when Kent State won their opening game against Dayton. Over the decades that followed, the stadium evolved into a hub for university sports and underwent several upgrades.

The stadium brings together Kent State University students who gather to watch football games and celebrate as a community. These events form a central part of campus life and student traditions.

The stadium provides accessible parking and multiple entrance gates for easy access. Arriving early helps visitors locate their seating and explore the grounds without rush.

The venue hosted the 2001 NCAA Division I Field Hockey Championship before serving as home to the university's field hockey team for several years. This history shows the stadium played a role in multiple university sports beyond football.
