About Alumni Stadium
Alumni Stadium
A storied piece of college football history, Boston College’s Alumni Stadium has stood the test of time like none other. From its earliest days as a simple stadium to replace the famous “Dust Bowl” on Boston College’s campus to its current status as a massive, 44,000-seat capacity Division I football stadium, this outdoor arena has been the site of plenty of riveting events over more than half a century.
History of Alumni Stadium
Originally erected in 1957 as an upgrade to the college’s Boston Field, Alumni Stadium has evolved over the decades. Becoming bigger and better with every major renovation, the stadium has kept pace with the popularity of the college and its NCAA teams. Today the open-air stadium is open year-round thanks to an inflatable bubble that can be erected over it in the winter and early spring, making it an excellent place for off-season practice as well as spectacular games in the fall.
