About Joe Albi Stadium

Joe Albi Stadium, a cornerstone of Spokane’s sports history, sits on the near-north side of the city at 4918 W. Everett Avenue. Opened in 1950 as Spokane Memorial Stadium and renamed in 1962 to honor local sports icon Joe Albi, the venue served as a versatile outdoor stadium for high school football, college teams, and notable events. Although the stadium closed in January 2022 and was demolished later that year, its legacy lives on in the new downtown replacement, One Spokane Stadium, while fans still seek memories of classic games and landmark performances such as Elvis Presley’s 1957 concert and the 1982 Billy Graham Inland Empire Crusade.
