Paycor Stadium

Paycor Stadium stands proudly along the Ohio River in downtown Cincinnati, serving as the modern home of the Cincinnati Bengals since 2000. This architectural gem replaced the multipurpose Riverfront Stadium with a football-specific design that maximizes fan experience and creates one of the NFL's most intimate playing environments. The stadium's riverfront location provides stunning views of the Ohio River and Kentucky skyline, while its distinctive design features include the iconic tiger-striped end zone pattern that has become synonymous with Bengals football. The venue's design prioritizes fan comfort and accessibility, with wide concourses, numerous concession options, and excellent sightlines from every seat. At 65,515 capacity, Paycor Stadium creates an electric atmosphere during crucial games, with the "Who Dey" chants echoing throughout the bowl-shaped configuration. The facility has witnessed the Bengals' remarkable transformation from struggling franchise to playoff contender, hosting memorable playoff victories and Joe Burrow's emergence as a franchise quarterback. The stadium's integration into Cincinnati's downtown core makes it easily accessible via public transportation and walking from numerous hotels and restaurants. Game-day experiences extend beyond football, with the Great American Ball Park (home of the Reds) located nearby, creating a sports entertainment district that energizes the entire downtown area. Paycor Stadium's modern amenities, riverside setting, and passionate fanbase combine to create an authentic Midwest football experience that celebrates both Cincinnati's rich sporting heritage and its promising future.
