Arlington Backyard is the outdoor concert and event venue inside the Texas Live! complex, sitting directly next to Globe Life Field with views of AT&T Stadium. During the 2026 international soccer tournament, it will serve as one of the primary watch party destinations in the Arlington Entertainment District. On non-match days, it hosts live music, postgame concerts and festivals throughout the summer.
Arlington Backyard is a 5,000-capacity open-air pavilion with a permanent roof, allowing it to host events year-round regardless of weather. The two-story design features a mix of standing room and comfortable seating, with massive screens built for viewing major sporting events.
The venue sits at 1650 East Randol Mill Road, Arlington, Texas 76011, within the Texas Live! complex. Its position between both stadiums means you can walk from a soccer match at AT&T Stadium or a Texas Rangers game at Globe Life Field directly into an event at Arlington Backyard without moving your car.
