GLOBE LIFE FIELD FACTS

HEALTH AND SAFETY REQUIREMENTS All occupants inside Globe Life Field (GLF) are required to wear a face mask at all times. Please use the hand washing and sanitizing stations throughout the venue. WRANGLER NFR NO-BAG POLICY In order to reduce touch points between employees and guests, no bags will be permitted except for those that are carried for medical reasons or manufactured diaper bags that accompany infants and young children. No outside food is permitted inside the ballpark. One (1) sealed non-flavored water (plastic bottle only) that is one 1 liter or less in size will be allowed per guest for medical rea- sons or for use with baby formula. No bag storage is available at the ballpark. Ex- ceptions: Medically necessary items and diaper bags will require thorough bag inspections at the entrance. Any refusal for inspection will be denied entrance into the arena. There will be a metal detector in use during all 10 performances. PURPOSE GLF, which was built as a public-private partnership between the City of Arlington and professional baseball team the Texas Rangers, is not only the team’s new home but also a multipurpose sports and entertainment venue that includes capabilities for hosting numerous local, regional, and national events. This year (2020) marks the first year for the Rangers to play in the new ballpark. The Wrangler National Finals Rodeo is the first non-baseball event to be held at this modern venue.

SEATING CAPACITY The overall capacity of Globe Life Field is approximately 40,300 on seven seating levels. The facility was designed to bring fans “closer to the action” from every seat. There are 12 field suites located directly behind home plate as well as low-level club seating down both the first and third base lines. In accordance with Texas’ occupancy guidelines (due to the coronavirus pandemic) seating capacity at the Wrangler NFR will be reduced to 50 percent with seats spaced apart and sold in groups of four. INCEPTION The official groundbreaking for GLF took place on September 28, 2017 with construction being completed in less than 30 months. The project cost for GLF is approximately $1.2 billion. SIZE GLF measures 1.8 million square feet, 400,000 square feet more than Globe Life Park. At its highest point, GLF is 278 feet from the playing field to the top of the retractable roof. The park has six entry points, the Northwest, North, Northeast, Southeast, Southwest, and VIP entry on the West side. RETRACTABLE ROOF

The 5.5-acre retractable roof is intended to provide shade and a cooler tem- perature 365 days a year, keeping the average temperature in the mid-70’s. It is the largest single-panel operable roof in the world and weighs 24 million pounds. The roof is comprised by a white rubber membrane on the north and south sloped planes, and the flat center is covered with 223 clear panels made of ethylene tetrafluoroethylene – a transparent plastic polymer related materi- al – allowing for natural light to fill the entire facility. The roof can open in approximately 12 minutes. WRANGLER NATIONAL FINALS RODEO 5
