Official Minnesota Vikings U.S. Bank Stadium Construction Time-Lapse

The stadium has a partial protruding corner and a piece of roof made of plastic film, which was noted worldwide in 2018 as the location for the Super Bowl.

Located in downtown Minneapolis, the Bank of the United States stadium is home to Minnesota Vikings, a member of the National Football League (NFL). Comprising 1.8 million square feet (167,225 square meters), the building also hosts events such as concerts, conferences and sports games in high school and university.

The HKS designed the building to reflect the city's culture, climate, and backdrop, inspired by the ice formation on nearby Saint Anthony Falls, as well as design as Viking long boats.

The roof is subjected to the harsh climate weather in the city of Minneapolis, while flooding the interior with natural daylight, feeling like it is outdoors without causing the player or fans to endure the elements. "

The slope also forms a "heat reservoir inside the Attic", which stores the heat generated by the sun and helps melt the snow on the terrace.

The stadium boasts 131 suites, nearly two dozen of which are located on the field. Six clubs are available for private events, such as meetings and weddings at the company.
