Amenities & Design

Stadium-Info-2
  • As part of a two-year, $35 million investment that began in 2013, the Ravens enhanced the fan experience at M&T Bank Stadium with improvements to video boards, concession stands and all concourses.
  • All 16 lower concourse concession stands were upgraded, with these enhancements improving the speed of service, and also the freshness and quality of food, much of which is prepared directly in front of fans.
  • Additional concession stand improvements included digital menu boards and full upgrades to all condiment counters. Renovations to upper concourse concession stands were completed prior to the 2014 NFL season.
  • Extra-wide concourses (44-64 ft.) allow easier fan movement. Seven public elevators, numerous ramps and two escalators (to club level) assist the fan traffic.

Video Screens & Wi-Fi

Stadium-Info-4
  • Each RavensVision high definition screen measures 24 feet high and 100 feet wide. Those dimensions would equal a 1,234-inch diagonal TV screen. It would take 600 37-inch flat screen TVs to equal one of these giant LED (light emitting diode) boards. Nearly 2.5 million individual LEDs provide the image on the two screens, allowing the highest quality pictures in the brightest sunlight and at night events.
  • The high definition views allows for some of the best graphics and game action video in the league, live game highlights from around the NFL, instant replays, scores, statistics, plus player updates and features.
  • Each of the two giant screens is made up of modular LED panels - 12.6 inches by 15.1 inches. These panels were then assembled into larger sections measuring 8 by 9 feet. Each section weighs 900 pounds, and there are 33 sections on each board.
  • A control room that can allow the high def boards to work at peak quality was designed by VPC and installed at M&T Bank Stadium by Diversified Systems, the U.S. industry leader in the construction and installation of control rooms.
  • Two high definition video boards were added in 2013, measuring 8 feet high and 30 feet wide, which were installed at the concourse entrances of Gates A and These new HD boards, which have split-screen capabilities, display a variety of content, ranging from in-game action, highlights, stats, messaging and entertainment video.
  • Another dramatic improvement in 2013 was the addition of four new LED boards – one placed on each side of the two giant RavensVision HD video boards in the stadium's inner bowl. Additionally, new LED ribbon boards were installed to fully connect around the entire middle seating bowl.
  • In 2014, four new displays featuring the latest in Daktronics SMD (Surface-Mount-Device) LED technology were added to the upper concourse of the stadium, above the Miller Flight Deck, keeping fans updated on the game's excitement while away from their seats. Each of these new displays features 8 millimeter line spacing on SMD LED outdoor technology. The displays each measure 6 feet high by 22 feet wide to show fans the same content as the main video displays while they are in the upper concourse areas heading to and from restrooms or concession stands.
  • During the 2015 offseason, the Ravens invested in a $5 million project to install Wi-Fi access for fans at M&T Bank Stadium.

  • In October 2002, after the passing of iconic QB Johnny Unitas, the Ravens erected a statue of the Colts' legend outside Gate A. The piece was sculpted by local artist Frederick Kail, who was commissioned by a grassroots group that included donations from the Steve Bisciotti family, the Art Modell family, the Baltimore Orioles and numerous others. One of the signature elements of the bronze work is the famous black high tops – John's favorite football shoe. Many Ravens fans touch the left shoe of the statue for good luck prior to every game.
  • In 2014, the Ravens unveiled in this plaza area a second statue – one of former LB Ray Lewis, another Baltimore icon and perhaps the greatest defender in NFL history. This location is a unique picture-taking setting of the stadium for fans and vacationers.
  • Original PSL Owners also have the opportunity to locate their names etched in one of two PSL Walls of Honor. These names are a tribute to the great Ravens football fans who have supported the team that has brought Baltimore and Maryland two Super Bowl Championships (2000 and 2012).
