Nobody does sports stadiums quite like the United States of America.

Whether it's designed for college or professional sport, the Americans have a knack of raising concrete and steel behemoths from the ground with spectacular results.

The US boasts eight stadiums above 100,000-capacity – all of which are used for college football – while the UK's biggest ground, Wembley Stadium, would only rank No.13 in terms of size if it were shipped to the States.

Somewhat surprisingly, NFL stadiums range from around 60,000-capacity to just north of 80,000, but they are usually far more technically impressive, with lavish corporate suites and state-of-the-art technology running through their veins.

The NFL likes to reward forward-thinking teams who construct magnificent new-build stadiums with the honour of hosting the Super Bowl. 2024 is one of those years.

Allegiant Stadium boasts a 65,000 capacity, which actually makes it the fourth-smallest stadium in the NFL.

Reports suggest the stadium is expandable to 71,835 for the biggest events, but it remains to be seen whether this expanded format will come into force at the Super Bowl.

The Washington Commanders' FedEx Field is the smallest stadium with a 58,000 capacity, while MetLife Stadium – home to the New York Giants and New York Jets – maxes out at 82,500.
