About Meade Stadium

Meade Stadium is a multi-purpose on-campus venue in Kingston, RI, home to the URI Rams football and lacrosse programs. Opened as Meade Field and renamed Meade Stadium in 1978, the venue has undergone renovations that modernized seating and facilities while preserving its connection to URI’s athletics history. During renovations, capacity has varied, with reports indicating around 5,000 seats plus 800 chairbacks in certain configurations. The stadium sits at 25 W Alumni Ave, offering convenient access for fans traveling to campus from Kingston and the surrounding Rhode Island area.
