Stanford Stadium is an American football stadium located on the Stanford University campus in Stanford, California. It serves as the home field for Stanford Cardinal football.

The venue hosts NCAA football games and other large university events, with seating for roughly 50,000 spectators. It provides conventional bowl seating with sideline stands, press facilities, and spectator amenities for season games and special events.

The original stadium was opened in the early 20th century and the facility was extensively rebuilt in the first decade of the 2000s to modernize seating, sightlines, and infrastructure. The stadium has since been used for college football, selected neutral-site fixtures, and stadium-sized events.

The stadium sits on the northeastern portion of the Stanford campus in Santa Clara County, adjacent to Palo Alto and a short drive from the San Francisco Bay; it is integrated with the university’s athletic facilities and campus transit.

• Capacity: Stadium seating is about 50,000, making it suitable for major college football games and large campus events.
• Campus location: Located on the Stanford University campus, with access from the main campus and nearby university parking and transit.

• Check Stanford's events and parking pages before attending a game - campus parking restrictions are strict on event days, and official shuttles/satellite parking are often the recommended option.
• Allow extra time to pass through security and to reach seating; arriving early also gives access to permitted tailgating areas and reduces last‑minute crowding at entrances.
