Arizona Stadium
 Tucson, AZ

Set in the beautiful Santa Catalina Mountains, Arizona Stadium has been the home of the Arizona Wildcats for over eight decades. In the mid 1920s, officials decided to build a new stadium. Construction began in December 1928 and was completed by October 1929. Named Arizona Stadium, the Wildcats played their first game at the stadium on October 12, 1929 against California Tech. In the beginning, Arizona Stadium was very small with a seating capacity of only 7,000. Football under lights came in 1931, and seven years later the stadium was expanded by 3,000 seats on the east side.

By 1947, seats were added in the endzones, and three years later, the south endzone was enclosed giving the stadium a horseshoe look and increasing the capacity to 22,671. In 1965, the west side of the stadium was expanded and new press box was built. By the start of the 1976 season, a two tier addition on the east side added an additional 17,000 seats to Arizona Stadium. A new scoreboard was added in 1982 and permanent seats were installed on the north side of the stadium by 1988. In 1989, a $6.3 million expansion and renovation of the press box was completed adding 23 luxury suites and 319 clubs seats along with a new Presidents Box. The most recent addition to the stadium came in 1993 when a new video/scoreboard was added to the facility. Today, Arizona Stadium has a seating capacity of 56,000.
