Allegacy Federal Credit Union Stadium
Winston-Salem, United States
Formerly: Groves Stadium, BB&T Field, Truist Field at Wake Forest
Allegacy Federal Credit Union Stadium sits a mile from the main academic heart of Wake Forest University, tucked between Reynolds and Deacon Boulevards. The facade is bricked, a deliberate choice made during the major renovation that concluded in 2008, giving the concrete bowl a warmer, more permanent appearance.
The ground has a reputation for being cramped, a characteristic that has persisted since it opened in 1968. It is the smallest stadium by permanent capacity in its conference, yet it packs a full house for home matches. The decision to install turf in 2006 was met with resistance but has allowed for a consistent surface through the humid North Carolina summers.
Outside the main concourse, the entertainment complex buzzes with life on non-match days. The stadium has hosted major concerts, with acts like Guns N' Roses and Billy Joel drawing crowds that exceed the football capacity. These events have led to the occasional confusion over attendance figures, with some reports citing numbers higher than the official football record.
