Northwest Stadium

Imagine a super-duper big building where lots of people gather! Northwest Stadium is located in Landover, Maryland. That's a place not too far from Washington, D.C., the capital of the United States. It's like a special spot on the map where fun events take place. The weather there can be warm in the summer, perfect for outdoor games, and cooler in the fall when football games are played.

This stadium has had a few different names over the years, like a superhero changing costumes! It first opened in 1997 and was called Jack Kent Cooke Stadium. Then, for a long time, it was known as FedExField. Now, it's called Northwest Stadium. It's the home for a famous football team called the Washington Commanders. Think of it as their super-special clubhouse!

Northwest Stadium is HUGE! It used to be the biggest stadium in the whole NFL, which is the professional football league. It could hold 91,000 people, which is more than the population of some small cities! Now, it seats about 64,000 people. That's still a lot of friends and family to watch a game with, all sitting together!
