M&T Bank Stadium is the downtown Baltimore home of the Ravens, sitting beside the historic Camden Yards complex in the city's stadium district. Its open, brick-accented bowl was built to echo the surrounding ballpark architecture while delivering a loud, purple-clad football atmosphere. The stadium is famous for its raucous crowd noise and for the purple lighting and pageantry that greet the team on big game days. It's widely regarded as one of the AFC's most intimidating road environments.
Opened in 1998 as PSINet Stadium (later Ravens Stadium and M&T Bank Stadium since 2003), it replaced Memorial Stadium as the Ravens' home just two years after the franchise relocated from Cleveland. The building has been the backdrop for two Super Bowl championship runs, capped by title celebrations after the 2000 and 2012 seasons, and is closely tied to the legacy of the Ray Lewis-era defenses that defined the franchise's identity. It has also hosted college football bowl games and periodic Army-Navy showdowns, cementing its place as a cornerstone of Baltimore sports.
