The newest jewel of Colorado's sports landscape, Dick's Sporting Goods Park is an 18,000-seat stadium that is surrounded by a 24-field, fully-lit professional soccer complex which is considered the biggest and most state-of-the-art professional stadium and field complex in the world.
DSG Park is located nine miles northeast of downtown Denver and only five miles from Denver International Airport, near the intersection of Interstate 70 and Quebec Street, and just north of the Stapleton development.
Stadium amenities include a total of 20 loge-style luxury suites, a unique open concourse design that allows for 360-degree sightlines to the field, and a world-class grass field with a underground heating and draining system. The stadium also features cutting-edge technology, featuring the largest video scoreboard and the most LED boards for a stadium its size anywhere, as well as the only fully-integrated digital signage system in the world.
Dick’s Sporting Goods Park anchors the 917-acre Prairie Gateway site that is a public-private partnership between Kroenke Sports Enterprises and Commerce City. The site when finally completed will host the new Commerce City municipal hall, retail facilities, offices for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and a new visitors’ center for the Rocky Mountain Arsenal Wildlife Refuge, among other entities.
The stadium opened its doors for the first time to the public on April 7, 2007, when it hosted Major League’s Soccer season opener as the Colorado Rapids defeated DC United 2-1 in front of a nationwide audience on ABC.
