How this list is built
Capacity is each venue's official seating capacity for its main sport, taken from the team or venue's own page, or the stadium's Wikipedia infobox where the official page gives none. Each figure links to its source. Standing room, temporary seats and record crowds are not counted. Opening year is the year the current stadium first hosted its main tenant. MetLife Stadium is home to both the Giants and the Jets, and SoFi Stadium to both the Rams and the Chargers, so 30 stadiums serve 32 teams. Soldier Field uses the Bears' figure for Bears games (61,500); the stadium lists 63,500 for other events. Figures are checked against the source each month; if you spot an outdated number, the source link beside it shows where it came from.
