Cowboys Stadium is the new home of the NFL's Dallas Cowboys starting in the 2009 season. The new stadium will seat approximately 80,000 but can be expandable to up to 100,000 for major events, like Super Bowl XLV, which will be held at the Cowboys New Stadium February 6, 2011. The retractable roof stadium will incorporate some of the historical features of Texas Stadium, home of the Dallas Cowboys for the past 35 years.
There will be distinct arches spanning the length of the stadium, a hole in the roof when the dome is open and open-air end zone plazas, which can give the stadium an outdoor feel. As you can see, there will be a canted exterior wall, with an 86-foot high glass, curtain-wall surface. A signature element for the new venue is the 365-day a year entry, framing in glass the future Pro Shop, Dallas Cowboy Hall of Fame and ticket office. And there will be huge video screens on each side of the stadium for the fans' viewing pleasure.
