Set at 825 Stadium Drive in Iowa City, Kinnick Stadium is the heartbeat of Hawkeye Country. Opened in 1929 and renamed for 1939 Heisman Trophy winner Nile Kinnick, the venue blends deep tradition with modern comforts. Recent upgrades, including the rebuilt north end zone, wider concourses, improved concessions and premium seating, enhance a game day that regularly draws more than 69,000 fans.

Few moments in sports rival the Kinnick Wave, when the entire stadium turns to greet patients and families at the University of Iowa Stead Family Children’s Hospital overlooking the field. Steep sightlines keep you close to the action, videoboards deliver replays and stats, and the famous pink visitors’ locker room remains a piece of Hawkeye lore. Outside, tailgating around Melrose Avenue sets the tone from early morning to kickoff.
