Info Regarding The University Of Phoenix Stadium And Where To Reside When Visiting It

By David Mims


Previously called the Cardinals Stadium, the University of Phoenix stadium is a facility located in Arizona. The multipurpose facility is the official home of the professional football team of the state and its college level event, the Fiesta Bowl. The complex is able to accommodate nearly seventy five thousand people and it features the first retractable grass playing field in the country. Make sure, for your trip, the right hotel to stay at is chosen.

Since its 2006 opening, the stadium has been the host of a variety of events including concerts, BCS championships, expositions, Super Bowls, and trade shows. The state of the art retractable ceiling also ensures the events that happen inside of it can proceed no matter what the weather conditions are.

Constructed to hold an exuberant amount of people, the facility is approximately one and a half million square feet. One hundred and sixty thousand square feet of this is devoted to exhibit space and twenty thousand of it is set aside for meeting and board rooms. And to ensure that all seventy two thousand patrons have a good view, two high resolution scoreboards were installed at either end of the field.

The Phoenix Stadium is visually a great piece of art. The exterior was modeled after a barrel cactus, popular in the desert, and it was constructed from materials that are able to withstand the arid heat of Arizona. The building's interior is filled with panels of alternating panels of vertical metal and glass. They were placed strategically around the building's walls to patrons would be able to enjoy the desert horizon without any glare.

Do yourself a big favor during your Glendale stay and book a room at the nearby Holiday Inn. It's located a few minutes from the beloved stadium and prides itself on being able to provide their guests with the best services and amenities.
