It is also known as the Brick Field at Commonwealth Stadium during Eskimo events, it is an outdoor, all-purpose multi-seat stadium located in the McCauley neighborhood of Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. It has a capacity of 55,819, making it the largest outdoor stadium in Canada. It has been used for Canadian football, athletics, soccer and rugby, as well as concerts.

Construction began in 1975 and the place opened ahead of the Commonwealth Games 1978 (hence its name), replacing the adjacent Clarke Stadium as the Eskimo home. It received an important expansion ahead of the 1983 Summer Universiade, when it reached a capacity of 60,081. His main tenant is the Edmonton Eskimos of the Canadian Football League (CFL), and he has hosted four gray cups, from the CFL championship game. The stadium had remained the only CFL place with natural grass for a long time, until FieldTurf Duraspine Pro was installed in 2010.
