Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Stadium

Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Stadium, commonly known as RFK Stadium and originally known as District of Columbia Stadium, is a defunct multi-purpose stadium in Washington, D.C. located on East Capitol Street near the Anacostia River. Opened in 1961, it was owned by the federal government until 1986.

RFK Stadium was home to a National Football League (NFL) team, two Major League Baseball (MLB) teams, five professional soccer teams, two college football teams, a bowl game, and a USFL team. It hosted five NFC Championship games, two MLB All-Star Games, men's and women's World Cup matches, nine men's and women's first-round soccer games of the 1996 Olympics, three MLS Cup matches, two MLS All-Star games, and numerous American friendlies and World Cup qualifying matches. It hosted college football, college soccer, baseball exhibitions, boxing matches, a cycling race, an American Le Mans Series auto race, marathons, and dozens of major concerts and other events.

RFK was one of the first major stadiums designed to host both baseball and football. Although other stadiums already served this purpose, such as Cleveland Stadium (1931) and Baltimore's Memorial Stadium (1950), RFK was one of the first to employ what became known as the circular "cookie-cutter" design. It is currently owned and operated by Events DC, the successor agency to the DC Armory Board, a quasi-public organization affiliated with the city government.

In September 2019, Events DC announced plans to demolish the stadium due to maintenance costs. Demolition of the surrounding area began in 2023. A 99-year lease giving control of the site from the federal government to the District was signed in January 2025. In April 2025, the Commanders and the D.C. government announced a deal to build a new $3.7 billion stadium at the site with plans to open by 2030.
