Does Dallas Stadium have air conditioning? What to know about site of England v Croatia World Cup match

  • England will take on Croatia Wednesday at Dallas Stadium , a sports arena in Arlington, Texas, with a capacity of 94,000.
  • The stadium, renamed from AT&T Stadium for the tournament, features a retractable-roof, the largest of its kind, and air conditioning. It opened in 2009 and is the home of the NFL's Dallas Cowboys.
  • Colorado-grown grass was brought in for the World Cup matches, laid over the Cowboys’ artificial turf.
  • Four video screens are suspended 90 feet above the field, including two 160-by-72 feet screens facing the sidelines and two 53-by-30 feet displays that face the endlines.
  • The stadium is about 20 miles from Dallas and adjacent to Globe Life Field, home of MLB's Texas Rangers, and Choctaw Stadium, the former Rangers' ballpark that was reconfigured for football when the Rangers moved to their new building in 2020.
