The Oakland–Alameda County Coliseum, or more commonly known as Oakland Coliseum, is a multi-purpose stadium in Oakland, California, and is the home of the Oakland Athletics of the Major League Baseball. Opened in 1966, it was the last remaining stadium in the United States shared by a professional football (Oakland Raiders) and baseball team, having done so from 1968 until 2019.

The Coliseum complex consists of the stadium and the neighboring Oakland Arena which was home to the Golden State Warriors of the NBA until 2019. The stadium has approximately 6,300 club seats, 2,700 of which are available for Athletics games, 143 luxury suites, 125 of which are available for Athletics games, and a variable seating capacity of 46,867 (or 55,945 without tarps) for baseball and 63,132 for soccer. In seating capacity, Oakland Coliseum is the eighth-largest MLB stadium. While an NFL venue, the stadium was the second-smallest NFL stadium, larger only than Dignity Health Sports Park, the temporary home of the Los Angeles Chargers.

On April 3, 2017, Opening Day, the Athletics dedicated the Coliseum’s playing surface as Rickey Henderson Field in honor of MLB Hall of Famer and former Athletic Rickey Henderson.

Other notable events held at the stadium include Peter Gabriel, Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band, and the Metallica and Guns N’ Roses Stadium Tour in 1992, with Body Count as their opening act.
