About
New Stadium at RFK Campus is the project name for an indoor multi-purpose stadium in Washington, D.C. scheduled to open in 2030. It will serve as the home venue of the National Football League (NFL) team Washington Commanders and host other sports and public events. The stadium will replace the former Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Stadium (RFK Stadium)—home of the team from 1961 to 1996—at its site along the Anacostia River in the city's Hill East neighborhood.
New Stadium at RFK Campus will have a seating capacity of 65,000 and was designed by the architectural firm HKS, featuring a neoclassical-inspired colonnade exterior and a translucent roof allowing skylighting and climate control. Projected to cost US$3.8 billion when including planned adjacent mixed-use development, the stadium will be among the most expensive ever built. It will be owned by the District of Columbia and managed by the Commanders.
