The Coliseum is a football stadium in Nashville, Tennessee, used primarily as the home stadium of the NFL's Tennessee Titans, but also used by Tennessee State University. It is also the site of the Gaylord Hotels Music City Bowl, a postseason college football game played each December. The Coliseum is located on the east bank of the Cumberland River, directly across the river from downtown Nashville. Its capacity is slightly under 69,000.

The Coliseum also doubles as a large concert venue, although very few concerts are scheduled there due to attendance that did not approach capacity. The main stage for the annual CMA Music Festival (formerly Fan Fair ), held every June, is located in the Coliseum. A large Billy Graham Crusade was held at The Coliseum in the summer of 2000.

The facility was originally known as Adelphia Coliseum in a naming rights arrangement, but after Adelphia missed a required payment and subsequently filed for bankruptcy in 2002 this name was dropped.

The stadium was completed in 1999; its construction was delayed when the construction site was hit by a tornado that struck downtown Nashville on April 16, 1998 and destroyed several cranes.
