Design Statistics<br />

Total Square Footage: 3.0 million square feet. The entire Statue of Liberty and its base could fit<br />

into the stadium with the roof closed. The stadium is also the world’s largest column-free room. The<br />

American Airlines Center in Dallas could fit entirely into the stadium at field level.<br />

Interior Cubic Volume: 104 million cubic feet. (By comparison, Reliant Stadium in Houston measures<br />

90 million cubic feet.) AT&T Stadium is the largest enclosed stadium (in cubic feet) in the NFL.<br />

Seating Capacity: With ticketed areas in the end zone plazas and platforms, capacity can reach<br />

over 100,000.<br />

Suites: There are over 300 suites in eight different locations on five separate levels of the stadium.<br />

Field-level suites are available on the sidelines as well as in the end zones for up-close and personal<br />

viewing of the games. The Hall of Fame level suites are 20 rows from the field, making them the<br />

closest elevated suites in the NFL.<br />

Domed Roof: At 661,000 square feet, the stadium is the largest domed structure in the world.<br />

Retractable Roof: The open roof design that was a unique feature of Texas Stadium was carried<br />

over into the design of the new stadium, with the improvement of a new retractable feature, revealing<br />

an opening that measures 256 feet wide and 410 feet long. Two bi-parting mechanized roof panels<br />

are driven by a rack-and-pinion drive system consisting of 64 7.5 HP electric motors, making it the<br />

first of its kind in the world. The open/close time is 12 minutes.<br />

Arches: The roof is supported by two 35-feet deep and 17-feet wide boxed arch trusses. Each<br />

truss spans nearly a quarter mile (1,290 feet) making the roof the longest clear-span structure in the<br />

world. The arches are more than twice the length of the Gateway Arch in St. Louis.<br />

Glass Retractable Door: Each end zone features a five-leaf clear glass retractable door measuring<br />

120 feet high and 180 feet wide, making it the tallest moveable glass wall in the world.<br />

Parking: It is estimated that between parking owned or under control of the Dallas Cowboys as<br />

well as the entrepreneurial lots in and around the stadium area, that there are as many as 30,000 parking<br />

spaces available to fans on game day.<br />

As the largest NFL venue ever built, the stadium boasts the most spectacular column-free room in<br />

the world, stretching a quarter-mile in length. Encasing 3.0 million square feet, the majestic scale of<br />

the stadium measures twice the distance of the St. Louis Gateway arch. In addition, the Statue of<br />

Liberty can stand completely inside the room structure. The length of the arches spans the same distance<br />

as the height of the Empire State Building. The magnitude of the stadium’s size and scale places<br />

it on the world’s stage of iconic structures.<br />
