Mercedes-Benz Stadium, the home of the NFL’s Atlanta Falcons, opened in August 2017 after nearly three years of construction.
How Much Did Mercedes-Benz Stadium Cost?
Mercedes-Benz Stadium cost approximately $1.6 billion to build.
The building has a retractable roof and an artificial turf surface and was designed to host multiple types of events as well.
Mercedes-Benz Stadium has a standard capacity of 71,000 fans but can expand for American football (and had a record attendance of 78,347 for the 2019 Peach Bowl). At standard capacity, it’s the 11th-largest NFL stadium. The size allows the Falcons to rank among the league’s top half teams for NFL attendance.
