  1. Big-time events happen here – From the Peach Bowl and SEC Championship to the Super Bowl (2019 & 2028), College Football Playoff, 2025 FIFA Club World Cup and the 2026 FIFA World Cup, this place is basically a sports VIP lounge.
  2. Built with soccer in mind, the stadium hosts 20–25 matches a year and is one of the few FIFA World Cup-ready venues in the U.S.
  3. It is the first-ever LEED Platinum sports stadium, with solar panels, rainwater systems and EV charging stations, proving game day can be green.
  4. A 63,000-square-foot 360-degree video board (the biggest in the world) wraps the roof like a glowing halo. You won’t miss a single play.
  5. Inspired by a camera shutter, the glass-paneled roof opens in 10–12 minutes, letting in sunlight or keeping you dry. Game on, rain or shine.
  6. Massive floor-to-ceiling glass walls give fans sweeping views of the Atlanta skyline while they cheer.
  7. Wide concourses, 2,000 digital displays, escalators, elevators and Sky Bridges with bars mean you can wander, grab food and still catch the action.
  8. Since day one, Atlanta United has led MLS in attendance, pulling in 50,000+ fans per game and sometimes topping 70,000 at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
