RFK Stadium

RFK Stadium was part of the fabric of Washington, DC’s history, serving as center stage for sports and entertainment in the city for 59 years. As one of the nation’s first true multi-purpose stadiums, RFK gave sports and music fans decades of unforgettable memories and iconic events.

RFK Stadium is currently undergoing demolition and closed to the public. As of May 2026, Events DC’s general contractor, Smoot Construction of Washington, DC, has completed the structural demolition of RFK Stadium. Removal of the remaining concrete foundation walls and columns is ongoing. The demolished concrete is being processed, crushed and reused as graded backfill on-site. To date, approximately 95% of demolition waste has been diverted from the landfill and recycled.
