Home of: The Buffalo Bills (AFC East)

Welcome to Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park, New York, a suburb of Buffalo designed specifically for passionate Buffalo Bills fans and visitors. Designed by Populous in collaboration with the team and Legends, this open-air NFL venue opened on June 23, 2026. Built adjacent to Erie Community College's south campus across from where Ralph Wilson Stadium once stood, the .7 billion facility uniquely balances modern spectator comfort with Buffalo's proud identity for cold, snowy weather.
With an intimate seating capacity of 60,108 that can reach up to 66,000, steep stacked seating brings you incredibly close to the action—placing fans as close as 12 feet vertically from the field above the north end zone. A 360-degree canopy covers over 60 percent of the seats, protecting you from precipitation while keeping the natural-grass playing field fully uncovered to preserve the elements. As you explore the open 360-degree concourses, you can maintain views of the field, sample premium clubs, or gather at the northeast entrance's Family Circle plaza, which features a prominent sculpture depicting a family of American bison.
Whether taking in the game-day atmosphere or exploring the grounds, it delivers an unforgettable football experience.
