Ben Hill Griffin Stadium

About

Ben Hill Griffin Stadium (in full Steve Spurrier–Florida Field at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium), popularly known as "The Swamp", is a football stadium in Gainesville, Florida, United States. It is located on the campus of the University of Florida and is the home field of the Florida Gators football team. It was originally known as Florida Field when it opened as a 22,000-seat facility in 1930, and it has been expanded and renovated many times over the ensuing decades. Most of the university's athletic administration offices have been housed under the west stands of the stadium since the 1960s. It was also home to most football offices and training areas until a large stand-alone facility for the program opened nearby in 2022. Ben Hill Griffin Stadium is the largest stadium in Florida, the 12th largest stadium in the United States, and the 20th largest stadium in the world, as measured by its official seating capacity of 88,548 – though, it has often held over 90,000 for Florida's home football games.
