Mercedes-Benz Stadium (c 2017)

The Mercedes-Benz Stadium is a multi-purpose retractable roof stadium located in Atlanta, Georgia. The home of the Atlanta Falcons of the National Football League (NFL), Atlanta United FC of Major League Soccer (MLS), and the SEC Championship, it replaced the now-demolished Georgia Dome in 2017. Mercedes-Benz stadium holds the record of the world's largest halo board and is one of few American football stadiums with retractable roofs, and one of five in the NFL that has such a roof.

The stadium is owned by the state of Georgia through the Georgia World Congress Center Authority, and operated by AMB Group, the parent organization of the Falcons and Atlanta United. The total cost was estimated at $1.6 billion, as of June 2016. The stadium officially opened on August 26, 2017 with a Falcons preseason game against the Arizona Cardinals, despite the retractable roof system being incomplete at the time. Work on the retractable roof was completed on July 14, 2018. The first SEC Championship game was held in 2017 between Georgia and Auburn.
