Buildings Columbus Crew have called home in the attendance data Ticket Timeline uses—useful when an old ticket names the venue differently.
Coverage in Ticket Timeline's game data starts in 1999, when Columbus Crew Stadium opened as the first soccer-specific stadium built by an MLS club.
Columbus Crew play home matches at ScottsMiracle-Gro Field in Columbus, OH, USA. Dates for those nights are anchored in Eastern time. The stadium venue names above are what Ticket Timeline uses when an old ticket shows a different building name from decades past.
Dating a Columbus Crew ticket requires attention to stadium names: stubs from 1999–2015 say Columbus Crew Stadium, 2015–2020 stubs say MAPFRE Stadium (the result of a naming-rights deal), and 2021–present stubs say ScottsMiracle-Gro Field. Rebuilding Columbus Crew attendance is usually a scavenger hunt: paper tickets and PDF confirmations, camera-roll scoreboard dates, calendar invites, season-ticket statements, and memory anchors (companions, rivals, life events, seating sections on stubs). Work season by season; a partial list of attended matches is enough to start matching opponents and dates. When confirmations live in Gmail, Find Your Games walks through a read-only preview before anything is committed. For a shoebox of stubs, see what to do with old ticket stubs.
Once you've logged Columbus Crew matches you attended, Ticket Timeline surfaces the attendance story—not a live scoreboard. Visited insights can include every season at Columbus Crew Stadium, MAPFRE Stadium, and ScottsMiracle-Gro Field.

Columbus Crew home matches are at ScottsMiracle-Gro Field, which has been their home since 2021. The venue timeline above is the reference for what building name to expect on a Columbus Crew ticket stub from the past two decades.
Add Columbus Crew matches from memory, import a spreadsheet, or scan ticket stubs. Ticket Timeline links each attended match to MLS context—teams, stadiums, players, and notable moments—so nights at Columbus Crew Stadium, MAPFRE Stadium, ScottsMiracle-Gro Field, and elsewhere become a browsable Crew archive. Primary focus on this page: a lifetime attendance archive.
Ticket Timeline is for fans who want a permanent record of Columbus Crew matches attended over years—not a live-score feed and not a ticket marketplace. Keep ScottsMiracle-Gro Field nights, historic stadium nights, and every other attended match in an exportable personal archive.
If a stub names one of three different stadiums, that's a genuine venue change for the Crew across more than two decades at home—not a rename of one building. A lifetime Columbus Crew archive keeps every season together, with the stub's building name helping date and place each night you attended.
