Overview

MetLife Stadium rises out of the New Jersey Meadowlands just across the river from Manhattan, the shared home of the New York Giants and New York Jets and one of the largest stadiums in the NFL.

History & Legacy

It hosted Super Bowl XLVIII and WrestleMania, and routinely fills for the world's biggest stadium tours. Its crowning moment comes on July 19, 2026, when it stages the FIFA World Cup Final — the championship of the first 48-team tournament.

Not in New York

Despite representing New York teams, MetLife Stadium is actually located in East Rutherford, New Jersey. The teams left New York City in 1976 when they moved from Shea Stadium and Yankee Stadium to the Meadowlands Sports Complex. Today, MetLife Stadium continues that bizarre legacy; making it the only NFL stadium home to two teams that represent a different state than where they play.
