Often referred to as “The K” Kauffman Stadium is a baseball stadium located in Kansas City, Missouri. It is home to the Kansas City Royals of the Major League Baseball (MLB). Named after the Royals’ founder and first owner, Ewing Kauffman, the stadium is part of the Truman Sports Complex adjacent to Arrowhead Stadium, home of the Kansas City Chiefs of the National Football League (NFL).
Opened in 1973 as Royals Stadium, the name was changed twenty years later in 1993. Since its last major renovation in 2009, the ballpark seats a capacity of 37,903 people. Kauffman stadium was one of the only venues built as a baseball-only stadium (the other being Dodger Stadium) in an era of multisport “cookie-cutter” stadiums, designed to host multiple sports and events.
The stadium is the sixth-oldest in the MLB and has hosted the 1973 and 2012 MLB All-Start Games along with the 1980, 1985, 2014 and 2015 World Series. Non baseball events include Fleetwood Mac (1975), Van Halen (1978) and Billy Joel (2018).
