Hershey Park Stadium

About Hershey Park Stadium

Hershey, Pennsylvania features one of the best and most versatile stadium facilities between Pittsburgh and Philadelphia. Hersheypark® Stadium hosts a variety of high school turf sports championships and concerts. Winter? No problem. The stadium hosted the 2013 and 2018 AHL Outdoor Classic events after transforming the playing surface into a regulation hockey rink. The stadium seats nearly 16,000 spectators with a concert capacity of up to 30,000. Athletes will play on neatly-groomed artificial surfaces on a 213 x 536-foot field. In summer 2018, the stadium got a facelift with a brand-new stage. The upgraded version is the same model used for iconic events like the CMA Music Festival and Lollapalooza. Big acts like Paul McCartney, Justin Timberlake and Zac Brown Band have all played this venue, and now fans will have an even better view thanks to a structure that allows for bigger screens and more performance space. Fun fact: Parts of U.S. President Dwight D Eisenhower’s 63rd birthday party were held at the stadium. Golf great Ben Hogan teed off from the stadium while the crowds awaited Eisenhower’s arrival.
