Sun Devil Stadium

Sun Devil Stadium is located on the campus of Arizona State University in the Phoenix suburb of Tempe. It is home to the Arizona State Sun Devils college football team and the NFL's Arizona Cardinals.

Built in 1958, the stadium now seats 73,379. Sun Devil Stadium hosts college football's Fiesta Bowl every year around New Year's Day, and it was the site of Super Bowl XXX in 1996. This college football facility became an NFL stadium in 1988, when the St. Louis Cardinals moved to Arizona and became the Phoenix Cardinals (renamed Arizona Cardinals in 1994).

In 2006, the Cardinals will move from Sun Devil Stadium to a new retractable-roof stadium in another Phoenix suburb, Glendale. The new stadium will also host the Fiesta Bowl, plus any subsequent Super Bowls in the Phoenix area. Arizona State will continue to use Sun Devil Stadium.
