Miami Dolphins

AI Description: The canopy transformed the South Florida experience.

The home of the Miami Dolphins isn't just a home to the AFC East side; it has also held matches for the Miami Open in tennis, as well as the Miami Hurricanes in College Football since 2008, although it does not directly involve the stadium. Since 2022, Formula One has added Miami to its calendar, with drivers winding around the stadium.

Hard Rock Stadium is 38 years old, originally named Joe Robbie Stadium and holds just over 65,000 fans. In 2016, extensive updates were finished, adding a canopy roof as well as updated seating.

9Ceasars Superdome

New Orleans Saints

AI Description: Historic, loud, and uniquely New Orleans.

This stadium has hosted eight Super Bowls, the most out of any NFL stadium, with the first one happening in 1978 between the Cowboys and the Broncos, and most recently in 2025, in which the Philadelphia Eagles defeated the Kansas City Chiefs.

Formerly named the Louisiana Superdome up until 2011, this stadium's capacity holds 73,208 fans, but can be expanded to 76,468, although those fans haven't had much to cheer about over past years with the Saints not winning a playoff game since 2021.

In 2019, this stadium witnessed one of the most controversial no-calls in NFL history, with there being clear pass interference from Rams corner back Nickell Robey-Coleman on Saints receiver Tommylee Lewis going uncalled-for, with the latter eventually losing in overtime.

8Mercedes-Benz Stadium

Atlanta Falcons

MixCollage-17-Jun-2025-07-21-AM-7682

AI Description: One of the most spectacular roofs/interiors in sports.

The home of the Atlanta Falcons is certainly one of the most visually pleasing stadiums in the NFL, with its modern and futuristic look. Internally and externally, it holds 71,000 spectators and opened as recently as 2017, with the cost to build this infrastructure totalling just over two million dollars.

As well as hosting NFL games, it's home to Atlanta United in the MLS and showcases the Peach Bowl in College Football, typically played either as a quarter-final or a semi-final.

Originally, this stadium was meant to open on the 1st of March 2017, but was delayed due to the complexity of the eight-panel retractable roof. Eventually, the Falcons would play in it for the first time against the Green Bay Packers on the 17th of September 2017.

AI Description: Maybe the most pure football atmosphere in America.

Recently rebranded as just Arrowhead Stadium, converting from GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium, the capacity reads 76,416, and is the third-oldest current stadium in the NFL.

Based off data from the 2025/26 NFL season, the Kansas City Chiefs had the third-highest attendance, behind the Dallas Cowboys and Denver Broncos, with 661,146.

The fans inside the Chiefs' ground once achieved the loudest crowd roar, according to the Guinness Book of World Records, achieving a measurement of 142.2 decibels against the Patriots in 2014.

6Levi's Stadium

AI Description: Modern, major-calibre, excellent amenities.

The one downside to the home of the 49ers is that it is a 45-minute drive from San Francisco, given that the stadium is located in Santa Clara.

It's been home to the 49ers since 2014, with the branding of Levi's, who purchased naming rights in 2013, it holds a capacity of 68,500, and held last year's Super Bowl between the Seahawks and the Patriots, as well as Super Bowl 50, where the Denver Broncos beat the Carolina Panthers.

While Levi's Stadium is primarily home to the 49ers, it was turned into a football stadium to host six World Cup games over the summer, including, the USA vs Bosnia and Herzegovina and Qatar's first-ever World Cup point against Switzerland.

5Solider Field

Chicago Field

AI Description: Flawed Building, but an unbeatable lakefront/historic building.

The home of the Chicago Bears is the oldest active stadium in the NFL, with it celebrating its 102nd birthday on the 9th of October 1924. The Bears have been home to this stadium since 1971, with major renovations taking place in 2003 with modern steel-and-concrete seating bowl inside the neoclassical outer colonnades, which cost $632 million.

Although this might not be the Bears' home for much longer, as the ownership are looking into moving to a new stadium, located in Indiana, if they were to move, then they still would keep the Chicago name if they were to relocate.

AI Description: Ridiculous in the most possible way - Jerry World delivers spectacle.

Many believe the Cowboys to be the biggest franchise in the NFL, regardless of bringing high expectations into the start of the new season, but always seem to let their fans down within their 80,000-plus-seat stadium.

Jerry's world, as many like to call it, is named after its owner, Jerry Jones. It's believed that it's meant to reflect his bigger-than-life personality, as both a football stadium and an entertainment complex.

The stadium in Arlington, Texas, opened in 2009, and its features include massive arched steel supports, and a giant centre-hung high definition video board.

3Allegiant Stadium

Las Vegas Raiders

AI Description: Gorgeous, theatrical, uniquely Vegas.

Located just west of the Las Vegas strip, this arena opened in 2020, and is also home to the UNLV Rebels College Football team, with a capacity of 65,000, but can be expanded by an extra 6,000 seats.

It hosted one of the more dramatic Super Bowls in history, between the Chiefs and the 49ers in 2024, and will also hold Super Bowl LXIII in 2029.

Recently, the Las Vegas Bowl in the College Football playoffs took place at Allegiant Stadium as of 2021, and at $1.9 billion, it is among the most expensive stadiums in the world.

2SoFi Stadium

Los Angeles Rams and Los Angeles Chargers

AI Description: Architectural masterpiece and arguably the best overall facility.

Situated next to Rivers Lake, the home to the Rams and Chargers is one of the most visually pleasing stadiums, and alongside MetLife Stadium, which hosts Giants and Jets games, it's one of only two to hold two NFL teams in the same stadium.

The Rams won the Super Bowl in 2022 against the Bengals in their own stadium, and the Buccaneers did that too in 2020, defeating the Kansas City Chiefs.

The interior of this stadium has a massive 360-degree double-sided oval video board from the roof and the playing field is dug about 100 feet below ground level to comply with nearby LAX fight paths.

1Lambeau Field

AI Description: The NFL pilgrimage: history, atmosphere, and football identity.

It seems right that the team with the most Lombardi Trophies claims top spot on the AI's list of NFL stadiums, winning 13 NFL Championships, but only four within the Super Bowl era, with the most recent one coming in 2011, with Aaron Rodgers under centre.

It has a rich history as the NFL's oldest continuously operating venue. Lambeau Field is typically filled with Packers fans with cheese hats on their heads, known as "cheeseheads."

Once named The Ice Bowl, due to a New Year's Eve game against the Cowboys being played in a brutal kickoff temperature of -13 degrees Farenheit.
