Honolulu’s stunning and scenic stadium stands just feet away from ‘Aiea Bay on the island of O’ahu. The sports venue has been home to the Hawaii Rainbow Warriors football team since its opening in 1975 and has been home to several professional sports teams and hosted NCAA and NFL bowl games since the 1980s. Aloha Stadium continues to be a cornerstone of Hawaii events and entertainment as the largest stadium in the state.
“Our mission is to meet the challenge of providing a first-class arena where the dreams of our young people can be realized through participation in sporting and other special events; where the spirit of achievement can be nourished by the thrill of competition; where families can gather to share their cultural diversity with pride and a feeling of Aloha” –Aloha Stadium
In its 42 year history, the stadium has been through several expansions and improvements to continue to modernize the facility. The most notable improvement came in 2008 when the state of Hawaii approved a bill to refurbish the stadium, including retrofitting its scoreboard, replacing all seats, treating for rust, and adding additional luxury suites, parking lots, pedestrian bridge supports, and lounges. In July 2011, the field was replaced with an Act Global brand of synthetic sports turf for its exceptional strength and durability. This has been proven over the past seven seasons as the field continues to perform excellently and has retained its aesthetic value.
This Sunday, December 24th, The Fresno State Bulldogs (9-4) and Houston Cougars (7-4) will travel to Aloha Stadium in Honolulu, Hawaii for their postseason matchup at 7:30 PM CST. Both teams arrived on the island earlier this week and have spent the past few days in their final practices and enjoying the island’s local culture.
