Located in the heart of Nashville, GEODIS Park was built for the community by the community. It was very important that the stadium be designed to reflect what makes Music City so special and what the community has to offer. From its live music stage to its approachable, inviting atmosphere, there is something for everyone, and is what truly sets it apart from other stadiums in the area. 

From day one, there was a strong commitment to excellence across all project teams, including owner, architects, builder and trade partners. This dedication and strong collaborative culture was reflected in achieving the goal of delivering the stadium early and under budget (despite the pandemic!).

GEODIS Park has done an incredible job reflecting all aspects of life in Nashville. Whether you are a soccer fan or simply looking for an enjoyable evening out – this venue offers something for everyone!

GEODIS Park has a lot of character. In some of those early conversations, we’d talk about the importance of it being uniquely Nashville. I think it just really does a wonderful job incorporating all of these different elements that make Nashville so special.

Often people build something that looks like a lot of other stadiums, but we really want to be a very Nashville stadium, and that's showing itself in the delivery.

You know, we ended up two years later with a stadium that was early and under budget.

In the northeast corner of the concourse there's the stage which is set up for live music. That was something that was added throughout the course of construction, and I think that just speaks to how focused the Nashville SC group was on being part of Nashville and being authentic to what the community has to offer.

A really strong collaborative culture. Also, an owner who just knew what they wanted. And then, you know, you're able to take all of your effort and put that towards executing on the vision.
