Carter-Finley Stadium

Carter-Finley Stadium is the home of the NC State Wolfpack football team in Raleigh, North Carolina. It is one of the marquee venues of the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) and seats roughly 57,000 fans across its double-tiered grandstands. Set on NC State's Centennial Campus, it delivers a big-time modern ACC atmosphere with a boisterous tailgating scene that spills across the surrounding lots for hours before kickoff.

Opened in October 1966 as a replacement for the aging Riddick Stadium, the venue was originally named for NC State alumni Harry and W.J. 'Nick' Carter and later hyphenated to Carter-Finley in 1979 to also honor major donor A.E. Finley. Original capacity was just over 40,000; expansions since have grown it to nearly 57,000 seats. It has hosted decades of ACC rivalry games against North Carolina and Wake Forest and remains the Wolfpack's home for every major program milestone since the mid-1960s.
