Florida Citrus Bowl Stadium

The Florida Citrus Bowl was built in 1936, with seats for just 8,900 people. The first game took place in 1947. Already in 1967, the stadium was expanded to 18,000 seats, and in 1974 additional seats were added to a capacity of 48,000 seats. In January 1989, some improvements were made, mainly for people with disabilities: an additional elevator, seats for the disabled, etc.

The Florida Citrus Bowl hosted the 1994 World Cup and the 1996 Olympics. On its stage, the stadium hosted concerts by such stars as The Rolling Stones, The Who, Genesis, Pink Floyd, George Michael, Sir Paul McCartney, Guns'n' Roses.

In 2006, Orange County and Orlando City Hall began the first renovation of the 70-year-old stadium. Only two upper levels will remain from the original construction, and all other stadium facilities will be rebuilt from scratch.

In 2010, the new AstroTurf Game Day Grass 3D was made.
