About

Choctaw Stadium

Choctaw Stadium, formerly Globe Life Park, is a multi-purpose stadium in Arlington, Texas, United States. The venue opened in April 1994 as a baseball stadium with the name The Ballpark in Arlington, serving as the home for the Texas Rangers of Major League Baseball from 1994 through 2019. It replaced the nearby Arlington Stadium, and was succeeded by Globe Life Field.

In 2020, the stadium was retrofitted for football and soccer. It served as the home of the North Texas SC of MLS Next Pro (FC Dallas's reserve team) until 2025. The stadium will serve as the headquarters of amusement park company Six Flags following the company's planned relocation; Six Flags has been a tenant at the stadium since 2020.
