E. Claiborne Robins Stadium

E. Claiborne Robins Stadium is a modern sports facility at the University of Richmond in Virginia featuring split-level grandstands positioned on both sides of the playing field. The venue includes large LED video displays in the north endzone and can accommodate approximately 8,700 spectators in a well-designed layout.

The facility opened its doors on September 18, 2010, replacing the older City Stadium where Richmond Spiders football games had previously been held. This move represented a major upgrade in the university's athletic infrastructure and marked a new era for the program.

The stadium serves as home to University of Richmond athletic teams and functions as a gathering place for students, staff, and fans throughout the year. Visitors can experience the energy of college sports competitions across multiple disciplines on a single campus site.

Spectators should expect the facility to get busy during sporting events, with parking availability varying depending on game attendance. Food and beverages are sold at concession stands throughout the venue, with both cash and card payment options available.

The stadium was constructed with an all-brick exterior that mirrors the architectural style of surrounding university buildings, making it blend seamlessly into the campus landscape. This design choice is often overlooked by visitors, but it creates visual continuity between athletic and academic spaces on the grounds.
