- "We need to make this a place that's tough to play -- and the fans need to make it a place that teams fear to come!"
That is the mentality head coach Gary Smith is looking to build at the club's brand new stadium, Geodis Park. A $335 million dollar, privately funded facility that boasts a capacity of 30,000 seats, making it one of the largest soccer specific stadiums in the United States and Canada. And for a club that didn’t suffer a single home defeat in 2021, the opening of this impressive venue may only strengthen the Blue and Gold’s fortress-like home record, making Geodis Park a place that Supporters love and opponents despise!
Homecoming is a new series that looks at the unique story of soccer stadiums in North American and explores the design, inspiration, and origins behind the best and brightest stadiums in Major League Soccer.

It’s great seeing football/soccer do this from across the pond.
These new stadiums are bringing a lot of interest from top players.
@@Kyle_Lurz But the league needs to fix it's travel situation.
@@geminiseason6901 the league needs to make USL Championship USL League 1 USL League 2 and National leagues a relegation system
@@frenchchicken2799 definitely
@@frenchchicken2799 That too, and condense the league. More than 20 is just asinine.
That stadium is well deserved. Nashville has been a great addition to the league.
A question for Nashvillians: How are public transit options since I don't have a car so if I were to visit public transit would be my only option. A while back a Koch Brothers backed campaign to torpedo a light rail line succeeded. Since then has there been any attempts to revive talks or at least offer BRT (Bus Rapid Transit)? I live near the stadium of Shalke 04 and it's pretty crazy to see tons of people descending towards the stadium with various modes of transit - either on foot, by bike, by light rail, by bus and lastly by car. After the match its also pretty amazing to see the ebb flow back "into the sea" so to speak - the cheering, chants, inebriatededly stumbling back. Sadly there's not really any pubs nearby so perhaps not the greatest example. Nevertheless, my experiences after sports games in America have been subdued by the very private experience of everyone going to and from the game, all done with cars. Granted there are exceptions with certain stadiums (Cincinnati, Seattle . ..etc) in a somewhat urban core. Sadly though, many of these urban stadiums are located next to freeways, which have scarred many American cities, so there's not much to do around their either.
On that point, is the Nashville location somewhat a purely destination stadium? Can fans do anything around it before or after the game? I imagine, since these stadiums are much more about real estate than the stadium itself, they'll build some kind of a "night life" bar area around it but I never appreciated these kinds of South Park-esque "SoDaSoPa" centers. They seem way too artificial, inorganic and cookie cutter like purely oriented around consumption with their sports bars inundating patrons with speakers blaring music everywhere and a gazillion TVs. I much prefer to frequent a privately owned pub done much in the Irish/British style.
I hope to be proven wrong, for I've never been to Nashville, let alone Tennessee.
@@jjandorliadul Terrible. I live next to the stadium. The streets are packed quite bad but they are doing shuttles to the stadium from lots far away with bussing.
@@reformedartist8528 It seems you are accustom to a specific way of life when it comes to attending a sports event. Here in america most everyone has a car and their is ton of parkings available. You can take a shuttle to the stadium, you can take rideshare, etc.
@@jjandorliadul the stadium is a bit far away from downtown Nashville so food and stuff might be hard but there is Ubers and shuttles to get there. It’s also kinda easy to walk from a certain area
Lies again? Net Flix Rise Of Titans
I am excited about soccer in America. I want all teams to do well.
Soccer is the most popular sports in usa tho
@@baccamau80 Soccer is rated 5th rn closing in on Hockey. All sports are growing, but not as fast as soccer currently.
Ever since they stepped their foot in the MLS, Nashville proved that they are already one of the big boys. Well deserved!
I love that the seating goes all the way down to the pitch! I don't like when there is so much distance between the fans and the Back of the net.
Yeah it crazy! The backrow seats are only 150 feet away from the pitch. (horizontally) this is going to be such a tight, intimate atmosphere!
Great to see MLS taking off! Hoping it will change the face of youth sports as well! Kids have something to play for now!!
Exactly. I am so excited to see their stadium. This is a great day for soccer in America.
What an absolutely amazing and stunning stadium!! 30k seats! In a soccer specific stadium in the United States!
What a time to be an American soccer fan!
And they were all full!
Beautiful stadium for the beautiful game!
it's a bit bare-bones for my liking
What a nice soccer-specific stadium.
A club (franchise technically) that born from the spirit of people. Then you made your own anthem? No wonder you had fascinating home record. That's the spirit of football
The Southeast ain't just for Football no more. Can't wait to see this when Atlanta comes in on May 21st.
And may 11
@@danny70792 I'm not going to the USOC match
@Channel Name First Generation.
As an Atlanta fan from day one, I’m happy Nashville is getting to feel similar joy to what we did through this exciting journey.
Thanks fam. See you May 11th!
Nycfc should have a stadium like that
They’re getting one kind of like that
The stadium isn't really all that special, structural wise... The one in Cincinnati is far more impressive and should be what nycfc should aspire to emulate.
The MLS team who put this together did a fantastic job! I am so pumped for Sunday!
Atlanta united fan here. Welcome Nashville. We love it. Keep growing MLS.
I have season tickets to NSC! Cannot WAIT to be there for the first game!
As much as I enjoy the conveniences and how big Mercedes’ Benz stadium is I really wish ATL had their own stadium with grass.
It's going to be a Couple Decades before we get our own Stadium.
very beautiful awesome stadium!!!! congrats from Italy
Seems like theres a new MLS stadium being open every couple months. Havnt paid any attention to the MSL but its amazing to see the growth of the sport & league there
Proud to call Nashville SC my home team
WOW! Incredible stadium! Looking forward to visit sometime!
Good drone work
This is the respect football deserves. What a testament to the community and club. The rest of the league needs to all play on grass.
it looks so sick
The colors on that stadium is stunningly beautiful, it's almost as if it is computer generated.
Still the real colors tho
Stadium looks beautiful, hope to catch a game there sometime!
Great to see. Best of luck to Nashville SC in the future.
See you soon Geodis Park
Looks cool. Love to see it!
I'm a timber fan and would love to see that stadium even as a visitor!
It's beautiful to see the game grow. Sure wish there was a team in Vegas though:)
what a view!!
Mukhtar would turn into even more beast when playing there. Wish he was a Miami player 😭😭😭
congrats on that nice stadium Nashville SC! I so... envy you! 3:14. wish we had that piece of land here in NYc for our nycfc!
Nobody pointing the fact that they almost stole their logo from French Ligue 1 side FC NANTES…. They did a little tweak on it but still you can tell they look almost the same. I love how football keeps growing in USA and how much money are been put into it. But y’all gotta go to the roots and culture of every city and be original when it comes to a clubs logos. Portland, LAFC, Atlanta United, Seattle Sounders all those teams gives you that great feeling of originality been related to their cities
What a stadium
Wow,,, great stadium,,, we don't have simil,,, congratulation,,, by Italy,,, 👏👏😍😍👍👍👍👍😉
Because most stadiums in Italy are awful.
@@peterburry2531 Because most of the stadiums should be restored,,,,
@@vincenzomaitre3047 Which is a problem, because most stadiums in Italy are municipally owned
Beautiful
No sabía que EEUU todavía invertía en fútbol.
It’s becoming way more popular and soon it will kick off big time
The capacity is impressive but the stadium is very bare-bones... I'd like to see some exterior brickwork and cladding added in the coming years
Very cool Nashville
estádio bonito, parabéns
Awesome stadium
This was a great video
Hope its sold out for the new home opening!
Reminds me a bit of the LDC here in Columbus.
Keep being obsessed with us. We just do it better
Toronto FC holds 30k an can be expanded to 40k with temporary seating
Not soccer specific, though
@@skentals it was made for soccer specific
@@bobbysworldrox If i'm not wrong, toronto stadium also hosts argonauts (a football team) in the stadium. here in Nashville, we wont have any other team sharing the stadium
@@numbahone1434 that's irrelevant. What matters is what the stadium was designed for. A bunch of MLS specific stadiums share or have multi use when soccer team isn't playing. That does not make them sky less soccer specific
Still waiting for Boston…
Boston vs New England would be a fantastic and much needed derby rivalry
Best Stadium in the MLS hands down.
Great looking stadium but I think FC Cincinnati's is hard to beat
No way. The exterior is horrible... FC Cincinnati stadium is far superior
Doesn’t BMo also sit 30,000? And 40 for special events?
Ya
Yes. But BMO is not a soccer specific stadium (it also hosts a Canadian football team, the Argonauts)
@@martinottesen1053 It 100% is soccer specific. The word is specific, not exclusive. Built to soccer specifications, for soccer primarily. The Argos are a recent tenant in a soccer stadium that was there before them.
@@apferrando I think it stops being specific when seats are removed for the football team
@@alexwilliamwin they added 8,000 seats. And 3000 need to be removed for football.
Reminds of la ceramica in Spain
Some MLS expansion teams are: Pittsburgh, New Orleans, Syracuse & so much more!⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽
Great stadium and cost.
As long as they use real grass, it’s all good.
all MLS teams with their own stadium is real grass.
@@numbahone1434 Portland Timbers have turf
The underside looks pretty bare metal, but the crowd that close to the field will be great for the team.
I kinda like the bare metal look it makes the stadium look open
@@Fuzzhead392 That's the fun about art, and architecture is art. We all have different opinions. :)
Regardless, it's great to see another soccer specific stadium open.
@@Fuzzhead392 That and among some other features were to keep with the industrial kind of look of the surrounding Nashville neighborhoods.
It's cheaply constructed, but I guess that's not really a concern when you're one of the 30,000 inside on a match day.
Wish you guys can do a doc drone video of dignity health sports park in Carson home of the la galaxy
BMO field in Toronto also has 30,000 seats so tied for the largest Soccer specific stadium in Canada and the US
No I think BMO field holds 28k ,so this will be the largest Soccer Specific Stadium in MLS.
According to Wiki, BMO holds 30,000 but it is also home to a Canadian football team, Toronto Argonauts, therefore making it not soccer-specific.
@@skentals BMO Field was built for Soccer, the Argos just moved into the stadium recently.
@@TheTroyc1982 But that means it's not SSS
Mini Juventus Stadium
That's just a larger version of the Columbus Crew stadium
Keep being obsessed with Nashville. It’s embarrassing for Columbus lol
@@BeautflDisaster4 It's a very accurate and fair comparison... Come back when you've some brickwork and exterior cladding.
This is really similar to Columbus’ stadium
Porque as duas esquipes são parecidas
That was my exact first thought
Damn I was thinking the same thing from first sight.
The way Columbus is so obsessed with Nashville is embarrassing lol
@@BeautflDisaster4 ikr
TITANS ON THEIR NTHRONE.
The MIGHTY LA GALAXY about to baptize this B too
The stadium with the stands being exposed looks kinda odd, but probably over time I’ll get used to it’s unique design.
It is based on European stadium models. But that's what's best for this magnificent sport. Being close to the field and the players in an arena made for the supporters and not to accommodate as many people as possible is also what makes sport the most beautiful in the world.
@@Drag_21 Its not that, it’s that from behind the stands and outside u can see the stands. There’s nothing standing between the stands and the outside
@@Drag_21 if it was really based on an European design, most of the seats would’ve been cover by the roof….
@@leataripledajaug European stadiums are not bare-boned in that way... I'm hoping that the club invest in some brickwork and exterior cladding in the coming years
Holy…
Helpful hint, park at Titan stadium and ride the shuttle to soccer ⚽️ Game
I park right in front of the stadium for 20$. Less than .05 mile away. No traffic either
So Nashville. No way shuttles, no parking, no trolleys climb the hill. I guess they expect all the fans to 20-30 age and willing to walk over a mile to the stadium. I am furious.
34,000 people including employees and 4,000 parking places.🤔
I can't decide, would it be awesome or horrible to live in one of those houses who have a backyard of the stadium.
Pro: short walking distance to the stadium
Con: heavy traffic on game day if you’re not attending a game
Another pro: make easy money by letting people park in your driveway since there’s not a lot of parking spaces at the stadium
Also it’s suppper loud and might be a hendernce
@@3DInnovations70 Not really a problem when it's just a couple of hours per week, and often even less than that
Not quite. They have concerts there during the week also and the fireworks go off until around 1:00. It sounds like a bomb going off in that metal stadium.🤔@@peterburry2531
Dortmond vibes.
I hope the atmosphere becomes as good as Signal Iduna Park!
No chance... Sign Iduna Park is a vastly superior structure
@@peterburry2531 Insecurity spotted. 👆🏾
@@geminiseason6901 I'm not even a Dortmund fan, but it's obvious to anyone that Sign Park is far superior
@@peterburry2531 I'm not a Dortmund fan either, but they are just comparing looks. Is Signal Iduna Park superior in terms of trophies? 🤷🏿♂️
maybe only under 10 minutes to made shell out for next league cup vs inter Miami
Getting ready for 2026
Not in that stadium... Nice for MLS but way below standard and capacity for a WC
Mmm. This makes me more impressed with what Indonesia was able to do with 23 million less in the Jakarta international stadium.
Ok, I'll say it again one day there will be a Major League Soccer Team in 40 out of 50 states ,... NUFF SAID.
👨, Nashville S.C. ⚽️ specific 🏟 looks awesome!
Messi is going to COOK in that Stadium
June is over. Please change the logo back. Thanks!
Will it be a place for the world cup games?
No its to small
@@gabrielmendez177530k is a big crowd but area wise yeah it is small
No chance
👀👀👀
Should give memphis a team
first goal it was from Philly lol :v
Should be called Nashville FC. SC = Stoolball Club / Sports Club.
Yes... FC sounds much classier and is the real deal
New Nissan stadium
Give Memphis a team
1:15 did she just say FC United of Manchester
Yes, it is a semi-professional football club founded in 2005 by Manchester United supporters who were against the takeover by american businessman Malcolm Glazer.
@@diogojoao6710 in Manchester or in Nashville 🤔
@@x7rogue153 in Manchester, she was comparing it to Nashville SC because they were both basically made by the fans
@@diogojoao6710 ohhh 😮 I am so uncultured
@@x7rogue153 don't beat yourself up, lol.
Don't like the name though. I understand that it's sponsored, but they should've called it the Geodis Music City Stadium or something like that.
MESSI GOAT😀
Why playing the final game here? I don’t understand?
Nice stadium but they should have extended the roof more. Fans in lower levels will be cooked in the summer day games.
Tell me you've never been to the South without telling me you've been to the South. jk. MLS knows not to schedule day games in the South during the summer. And that has to do more with humidity than sunlight. The only game people will have to worry about is May 1st and Sept 10th (230pm start vs Galaxy).
You aren’t from here, are you? lol
False. Go to all the games and it’s fine. Most games are late anyway
Bye bye baseball. The future is soccer baby!
Only in Nashville, Build a 30K Seat Stadium in a residential neighborhood w/ no parking! Fk`n Brilliant!!! After a 2/3 % Property tax hike on said Neighborhood. Why Fk the residents of Nashville? `Cause Fk`em thats why......... signed the Mayor.
Keep being mad lol
@@BeautflDisaster4 yeah no one even has a problem with it lol
Wrong Soccer League System without Pro/Rel .!!!
That's a heck of a cool flythrough view of the stadium. But there is something about the stadium design that doesn't sit well with me. Part of it is the way the levels are done. And that the corners are open, which seems to dissipate energy like its non feng shuay or something. I haven't seen a tour of the concourses and food places, etc. yet. But the outside views I've seen look skeletal. Compare with Minnesota.
Should have been called Nashville FC SC = Sports Club / Stoolball Club.
Umm it’s Soccer Club
@@LilRedRasta the game is football
The initials would be NFC which would cause some confusion in the south
@@saltpeter500 Association Football... AKA Soccer.
@@saltpeter500 it’s soccer here deal with it bud. The NFL is football
Bought my first ticket to see a live soccer game only to find there is NO PARKING available for anyone without.a season pass. The parkking situation is absolutely rediculoous, poorly planned. I am NOT paying someone $80 for park. I will ea my ticket. The first and last ticket I buy at that venue.
The woman who describes the stadium capacity and cost need a break with her voice.
jealous...
But no F*ing parking!!!
34,000 people including employees and 4,000 parking places.🤔
League propaganda aside, it's a nice stadium.
Nice but LAFC is better
So can Chicago, New England, NYCFC fix themselves now??? They need SSS. They look pathetic when Everybody else has figured it out
NYCFC in particular are an embarrassment to the league... I can't even watch the highlights because the sight-lines and pitch dimensions are so appallingly bad.
Chicago paid $60 million to end their contract at Bridgeview and their situation is now actually worse.
New England's isolated, soulless NFL bowl is bad enough without the plastic playing surface, but Robert Kraft couldn't care less about such 'minor irritations'.
At this rate, America will be fully soccerised/footbalised that they won't want to play their version of football anymore. :D
That won’t happen, trust me it won’t, we love this sport, but football is literally in a person’s blood here, and if it’s to be the number one sport, it would have to pass like 3 other sports leagues. The MLS is growing but it still can’t compete with the two major sports leagues in the US, the NBA and the NFL. So in conclusion soccer is growing and will be big in the us, but it won’t surpass basketball or The NFL

@@Katrin123 rugby is called rugby football genius. NFL = Football
Shut up, can’t just enjoy a video
Sigh. Okay. And? The term soccer is ingrained into our culture at this point. Even if the NFL were to suddenly go away, we would still call it soccer because that's the way it is.
The gatekeeping from you Eurosnobs is insane. Go worry about the Champions League. Go worry about the conclusion of the Premier League. If you don't like the American perspective on the beautiful game, then focus your clearly biased perspective on something else.
