State Farm Stadium Tickets

State Farm Stadium

Just west of Phoenix, the great State Farm Stadium, a modern multi-purpose arena, glitters in the hot desert sun like a massive flying saucer. This ultra-sleek venue might be the home of the Arizona Cardinals, but there’s so much more the State Farm Stadium offers fans of all types of sports and events.

 

The History of State Farm Stadium

State Farm Stadium is one of the newest and most modern arenas in the NFL. Opened in 2006 with cutting-edge features like a roll-in grass field and a retractable roof, this new venue was a smash hit almost from the start. In fact, Business Week magazine named it one of the “most impressive” new arenas ever built just after it opened.

State Farm Stadium sports events revolve around the Cardinals, who were very happy to move in after squatting in college arenas since they arrived from St. Louis in the 1980s. But this venue is a multi-purpose arena, so there’s no end to the types of events it can host. College football, college basketball, professional soccer, and even pro wrestling events have been held at State Farm Stadium over the years. This includes WrestleMania XXVI in 2010, where the WWE packed in more than 72,000 rabid fans going absolutely wild in the Phoenix desert!

Not enough for you? State Farm Stadium concerts are practically legendary. From the Black Eyed Peas and the Rolling Stones to Metallica, U2, and Beyoncé, this arena has seen all the big names. You name it and they’ve been there. If they haven’t, well, that’s their loss, isn’t it?

 

State Farm Stadium Events

State Farm Arena has some serious chops when it comes to design and amenities. There are literally zero blind spots in this venue, and that means there are no obstructed view seats anywhere thanks to its unique construction. It takes only 12 minutes for that retractable roof to open and close, keeping you safe and sound from the elements no matter what. On top of that, this arena is a tailgater’s dream come true with its Great Lawn, 8 acres of custom-landscaped space for you and your most ambitious pregaming desires. There’s no other way to say it: State Farm Stadium events are always off the chain!
