US Bank Stadium Events

US Bank Stadium opened in 2016 in the city of Minneapolis as the new home of the NFL’s

Minnesota Vikings. It was a somewhat unusual construction for a modern stadium as it was built with a fixed roof, rather than a retractable or open roof as has been the trend in recent times, due to the impracticality of opening and closing the roof during Minnesota’s harsh winters. Nonetheless, the translucent materials used to construct the stadium’s roof as well as some of its wall panels allow for plenty of natural light to flow inside and provide spectacular views over Minneapolis (which are also reflected in the building’s mirror-like exterior. The roof is slanted to allow for snow to slide off (like a ski chalet). Many have described US Bank Stadium as the NFL’s most attractive venue. The Vikings are still yet to win a Super Bowl (they lost in the Big Game three times in the 1970s), but have given fans something to cheer about since the move to US Bank Stadium with three playoff appearances in total and two hosted at home in the stadium. Along with all regular season and playoff Vikings home games, US Bank Stadium hosts important NCAA college baseball and football games (including the Gator Bowl), concerts, and occasional soccer matches. Super Bowl LII was also held at US Bank Stadium in 2018. If you arrive at the stadium on an empty stomach, you won’t have far too look to find delicious stadium snacks, including walking tacos, sweet potato fries, and, er, bratchos (described as an assuredly happy marriage of bratwurst and nachos). Team and event merchandise, including horned Viking helmets of all shapes and sizes, can be found on sale at the stadium’s numerous kiosks and shops.
