Allianz Field

Allianz Field is a soccer-specific stadium in Saint Paul, Minnesota, United States, located near Interstate 94 and Snelling Avenue. It is home to Minnesota United FC of Major League Soccer (MLS). It opened in 2019 during the club's third season, and has a capacity of 19,400 spectators. On October 23, 2015, team owners announced that Minnesota United would build a stadium on the 35-acre (14 ha) Saint Paul bus barn site. The stadium seats approximately 19,400, was completed in early 2019, and was privately financed for $200 million. On November 25, 2015, Minnesota United FC hired Kansas City-based Populous to design the stadium. On December 9, 2015, the team hired Mortenson Construction as part of the stadium construction along with Populous. Mortenson built U.S. Bank Stadium for the Minnesota Vikings in 2014–2016, and worked with Populous on three other Twin Cities sports facilities: Target Field, Huntington Bank Stadium, and Grand Casino Arena. Construction was completed in February 2019, and the stadium opened two months later on April 13, 2019, with Minnesota United FC hosting New York City FC. In North American competitions, the stadium is known as Saint Paul Stadium due to advertising rules.
