Really nice stadium! Especially when compared to a new stadium like the Austin new home. Wish all MLS teams had unique stadiums like this (unlike audi field 😖) . Also why cap the capacity at 26k when FCC can easily pull 40k

@@silentqueue2344 oops my bad, I meant Austin FC 😅. I saw their logo and thought of timber lol

Simple. Larger capacity stadium would require more money to have it built. The club may not have been able to afford to build something bigger than 26K capacity.

[@madridtillidie]

@@thestapler I looked into this a bit, and it's not cost necessarily. But more so a smaller stadium is a guaranteed sellout vs a larger capacity one. Atleast that's what I found as a reason for FC Minnesota

The 26k is so much better than the 20k. It’s only 6k but it makes a world of difference in terms of “the feel of the stadium”. This stadium looks and feels big time. The 20k stadiums as nice as they are don’t have the big time feel to them.

Appears the video was shot the week of the soft open for the Stadium on May 1st 2021. The fields are for the SAY youth soccer league matches that were played on May 1st. FC Cincinnati through the FC Cincinnati Foundation sponsors the West End Community youth soccer program (West End Pride) ... the Pride teams played their league matches there on May 1st 2021 along with team sponsored open house for West End community residents. West End Pride teams played on the pitch as family and friends watched prior to the team's first home game on May 16th 2021. A truly exiting opportunity for the children of the neighborhood!
