Lincoln Financial Field is anAmerican footballstadium inPhiladelphia, Pennsylvania, U.S. It is the home stadium of thePhiladelphia Eagles of theNational Football League (NFL) and theTemple Owls football team ofTemple University. The stadium is located inSouth Philadelphia on Pattison Avenue between 11th and South Darien streets alongsideI-95. It is part of theSouth Philadelphia Sports Complex and has aseating capacity of 67,594.
The stadium opened on August 3, 2003, after two years of construction that began on May 7, 2001, replacingVeterans Stadium, which opened in 1971 and served as the home field for both the Eagles andPhiladelphia Phillies through 2002 and 2003, respectively. While totalseating capacity is similar to that of Veterans Stadium, the new stadium includes double the number of luxury and wheelchair-accessible seats and more modern services. The field's construction included severalLED video displays and more than 624 feet (190 m) of LED ribbon boards.[6]
Naming rights were sold in June 2002 to theLincoln Financial Group, for a sum of $139.6 million over 21 years. The City of Philadelphia and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania cumulatively contributed approximately $188 million in public funding to the stadium construction.[7] Additional construction funding was raised from the sale of stadium builder's licenses, which are necessary to purchase season tickets for some of the stadium's best seating levels.[8] The City of Philadelphia owns the stadium due to the sizable public contribution, but the Eagles lease the stadium from the city as the sole operator of the stadium, giving them full control over the stadium's operations.[9]
TheArmy–Navyfootball game is frequently played at the stadium due to Philadelphia being located halfway between both service academies, the stadium being able to house the large crowds in attendance, and the historic nature of the city.Temple University'sDivision I college footballteam also plays their home games at Lincoln Financial Field, paying the Eagles $3 million a year to do so as of February 2020.[10] ThePhiladelphia Union ofMajor League Soccer have played exhibition games here against high-profile international clubs when their stadiumSubaru Park does not provide adequate seating. The stadium also plays host to several soccer games each year and will host matches during the2026 FIFA World Cup. It has also played host to theNCAA lacrosse national championship five times: 2005, 2006, 2013, 2019, and 2023.

The design of the stadium is meant to evoke the team's namesake eagle with wing like canopies above the east and west stands and the Eagle's Nest balcony beyond the north end-zone. The team's primary eagle logo is patterned in the dark green seats of the upper deck of the east and west stands. Three open corners of the stadium provide fans with views of the Philadelphia skyline and the field. The exterior of the stadium uses a brick façade to reference the historic brick architecture present throughout Philadelphia, while the exposed steel structure evokes the city's bridges and future.[11]
In late spring 2013, the Eagles announced that there would be some major upgrades to Lincoln Financial Field over the next two years. The total project estimate was valued at over $125 million. The upgrades included seating expansion, two new HD video boards, upgraded amenities, WiFi, and two new connecting bridges for upper levels. These upgrades were decided upon after research from season ticket holders, advisory boards, and fan focus groups. The majority of these changes, including WiFi (which would accommodate 45,000 users and have coverage over the entire stadium), were completed by the 2013 home opener. The upgraded sound systems and video boards were finished for the 2014 season.[12]
There are 172 luxury suites at Lincoln Financial Field. They range in capacity from 12 to 40 people and cost $75,000 to $300,000 per year or $20,000 for a single game rental. The suites are located in six separate areas throughout the stadium. There are 3,040 luxury suite seats in total.[13]
There are two exclusive 40,000 sq ft (3,700 m2) club lounges in the stadium. The lounge on the west side is the "Hyundai Club" and the one on the east side is the "Tork Club". Suite holders and club seat holders have access to these 2 lounges. There are a total of 10,828 club seats in the stadium. These club seats feature some unique benefits above and beyond the lounges. One major benefit is the lounges open hours before the event, in most cases 2–4 hours. The lounges also have multiple full-service bars in them. The seats in the club level are padded, and there is also a wait staff present to serve food and drinks.[13]
There are numerous parking lots surrounding Lincoln Financial Field. The parking assignments may change depending on other activities in the area on a particular day. According to the stadium's website, all lots cost visitors $45 and $90 for an oversized vehicle. Tailgating is allowed in all lots except for T-X lots. The majority of the lots are public cash lots.[14]
The Eagles decided after the 2012 season to move training camp fromLehigh University inBethlehem to Philadelphia. As a part of this new agreement, the Eagles will have multiple practices, which are open to the public, at Lincoln Financial Field. The rest of the practices will be closed, and will take place across the street at the NovaCare Complex.[20]
