Lucas Oil Stadium is a retractable roof multi-purpose stadium in Indianapolis, Indiana, U.S. It replaced the RCA Dome as the home field of the Indianapolis Colts of the National Football League (NFL). It opened on August 16, 2008. The stadium was constructed to allow the removal of the RCA Dome and expansion of the Indiana Convention Center on its site. It is located on the south side of South Street, a block south of the former site of the RCA Dome. The stadium's naming rights belong to the Lucas Oil corporation.
Architectural firm HKS, Inc. was responsible for the stadium's design, with Walter P Moore working as the Structural Engineer of Record. The field surface was originally FieldTurf; it was replaced with Shaw Sports Momentum Pro in 2018. In 2024, it became the first indoor NFL venue to use geofill when Hellas Matrix Turf was installed. The exterior of the stadium is faced with a reddish-brown brick trimmed with Indiana limestone, similar to several other sports venues in the area, including Gainbridge Fieldhouse, Hinkle Fieldhouse and Corteva Coliseum.
