About NRG Stadium
NRG Stadium is a multi-purpose stadium in Houston, Texas. It was constructed at a cost of $352 million and was the first NFL facility to have a retractable roof. It is the home of the Houston Texans of the National Football League (NFL) and the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo.
The stadium has a seating capacity of 72,220. The retractable roof consists of two massive panels that split at the 50-yard line, allowing the stadium to be open-air or climate-controlled (A/C is essential in Houston heat). The translucent fabric roof lets in natural light even when closed.
NRG Stadium has hosted two Super Bowls (XXXVIII and LI). The venue is part of a massive complex including the Astrodome. Its design set the trend for the modern generation of retractable-roof stadiums in the NFL, prioritizing fan comfort without sacrificing the outdoor feel when weather permits.
