The Anchorage Football Stadium is a 3,500-seat stadium in Anchorage, Alaska used for American football, track and field, and soccer. [1] Anchorage Football Stadium is located next to Mulcahy Stadium and Sullivan Arena.[2] It was one of the first sports facilities to have a FieldTurf surface installed in 1999.

On July 31, 2003, a Cessna 207 Skywagon plane carrying four passengers made an emergency crash landing on the stadium's track as a soccer match was taking place. Players and spectators from both Anchorage Football Stadium and neighboring Mulcahy Stadium rushed to the wreckage to assist those on board; all survived.
