University of California at Berkeley, California Memorial Stadium
2227 Piedmont Ave,
Berkeley, California, 94720

Since it opened in the fall of 1923, California Memorial Stadium has produced scores of unforgettable memories for generations of Golden Bears. From the Wonder Teams of the 1920s to the Pappy Waldorf years mid-century to recent success that has yielded eight bowl teams since 2003, the facility has treated fans of all ages to many of the greatest moments in the history of Cal football.

The site features stunning views of the Berkeley Hills to the east contrasted by a panoramic view of the San Francisco Bay Area and three bridges to the west. Designed by world-renowned architect John Galen Howard and co-designers G.F. Buckingham and E.E. Carpenter, the stadium is a tribute to their architectural talents, skills that were years ahead of their time. Fans who attend games today still marvel at the beauty of the structure, modeled after the Colosseum in Rome, and comment about the easy viewing for spectators from all angles within the stadium.
