About Creighton Stadium
Creighton Stadium stood at the southeast corner of North 27th Street and Burt Street on the Creighton University campus in Omaha, Nebraska. Opened in 1925 with a capacity of about 22,500, this oval concrete venue hosted football from 1925–1942, and it was a gathering place for religious and community events, including portions of the Sixth National Eucharistic Congress in 1930. The stadium featured a single-level south grandstand with a press box and a second deck on the north grandstand, reflecting early 20th-century stadium design. Although it was demolished in 1966 and the site is now occupied by Criss research buildings for Creighton University’s School of Medicine, the footprint remains a meaningful part of Omaha’s athletic and civic history. This page provides a historical overview and practical visitor information for nearby hotels, dining, parking, and transportation tied to downtown Omaha today.
