Toyota Stadium History

The inaugural match at Toyota Stadium was held on the 6th August 2005 between FC Dallas and the New Jersey Metrostars who would later become known as the New York Red Bulls. Costing an estimated $80 million at the time, the stadium is a purpose-built soccer ground capable of seating 20,500 fans across a single-tier of seating.

Consisting of a three sections of seats arranged in a U-Shape, the Northern End features a concert stage rather than a stand so that the venue can host mid-sized musical events as an additional source of income. Largely unheard off in European Soccer, having a stage behind one of the goal-ends is a common phenomenon in smaller American sports stadiums.

Constructed within a wider sports complex which features over 17 soccer pitches including one known as Dr. Pink Field. Named after former Frisco Dr Erwin. G Pink, the mix of artificial and natural playing surfaces allows teams at a variety of levels to play sports whether that’s College level or FC Dallas reserves.

Upon opening the owners of the ground sold the naming rights to Pizza Hut, becoming the Pizza Hut Park (PHP). This lead to some fans informally dubbing FC Dallas’ stadium as both The Hut and The Oven in reference to the warm Summer climate of Texas. A year after the deal expired, FC Dallas announced a new sponsorship deal with Toyota on September 10th 2013 giving the ground its current name of Toyota Park.

Ever since FC Dallas took on then European Champions Inter Milan on 5th August 2010 in front of a near sell out crowd of 21,193, similar size crowds at Toyota Park for MLS games have become increasingly common. The record attendance was recorded a year later when 22,565 fans saw LA Galaxy sneak a one nil win on 28th July 2012.
