When it comes to sharing special moments, TikTok has become a platform for users to showcase and relive their favorite destinations and experiences. 

From crazy sports plays on the field to heartfelt fan moments in the stands, the video-sharing app has become a hub for sharing the excitement of visiting famous sports stadiums across the United States.

In this blog, we'll explore some of the most popular stadiums in the U.S. based on the buzz they've generated on TikTok (often referred to as SportsTok). 

See if your favorite team's stadium made the top 10 below!

Most Popular Stadiums, According to TikTok

SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, takes the crown as the newest and most popular stadium on our list. With its modern design and state-of-the-art features, SoFi Stadium has become a hot topic among sports fanatics on TikTok — 619.2 million to be exact.  

This multipurpose stadium opened its doors in 2020, and serves as the home stadium for the Los Angeles Rams and the Los Angeles Chargers in the NFL. 

Fans and visitors have flocked to TikTok to share their exhilarating experiences, capturing everything from game highlights to behind-the-scenes glimpses of this impressive venue. 

Following closely behind SoFi Stadium on our list in third place is Allegiant Stadium. Located in Paradise, Nevada, the magnificent Allegiant Stadium opened just a few months before SoFi Stadium, adding another marvel to the Las Vegas skyline. 

Allegiant Stadium has quickly become a viral sensation on TikTok as the home stadium for the Las Vegas Raiders in the NFL. Users have documented and immortalized their visits, showcasing the stadium's electric atmosphere on game days. 

While the newest stadiums have made a splash on TikTok, it's interesting to note that some of the oldest stadiums have also captured the attention of TikTok users across the country.  

Among these classic stadiums is the Ohio Stadium, built in 1922 and home of the iconic NCAA Ohio State Buckeyes, which has garnered an impressive 11.1 million views on the video-sharing app.  

Similarly, Vaught-Hemingway Stadium, home to the Ole Miss Rebels, boasts 10.5 million views. Both historic stadiums are American staples and hold a special place in the hearts of many college football fans. 

Regarding the overall composition of the top 20 stadiums on TikTok, it's no surprise that most of them are home to NFL teams. A total of 18 stadiums out of the top 20 are the proud homes of some of our favorite football teams.  

These stadiums have become destinations for fans, not only for game days but also for capturing unforgettable moments and sharing them with the TikTok community. However, there are two exceptions to this NFL dominance: Dodger Stadium and Coors Field. 

Both Major League Baseball (MLB) stadiums have also earned substantial attention on TikTok. Fans of America's favorite pastime have taken to the platform to showcase their experiences, highlighting the unique charm and atmosphere of these iconic venues.

Analyzing Popularity of MLB Teams, According to TikTok

Next, we wanted to zoom in on America’s favorite pastime’s popularity on TikTok — both the venues and the teams themselves. Taking the lead as the most popular MLB team on TikTok is the Houston Astros. Known for their passionate fan base and recent success on the field, the Astros have gained popularity on the platform. 

However, when it comes to their stadium, Minute Maid Park, it only ranks at number 8 in terms of popularity. While the Astros themselves have successfully engaged baseball fans on TikTok, their stadium's appeal doesn't seem to have the same star power. 

Coming in at the second spot are the Atlanta Braves. The Braves dedicated following have taken to TikTok to share their experiences and celebrations. However, their home field, Truist Park, ranks slightly lower at number 6. 

The third most popular MLB team on TikTok, the Chicago Cubs, are known for their storied legacy and passionate fan base and have a strong presence on the platform. Wrigley Field, the iconic home of the Cubs, also holds its own in terms of popularity, clinching the number 4 spot among MLB stadiums on TikTok. 

Surprisingly, some of the most iconic stadiums in Major League Baseball, such as Dodger Stadium and Fenway Park, don't carry the same allure on TikTok as their teams do.  

Dodger Stadium, home to the Los Angeles Dodgers, ranks at number 13 in terms of popularity on TikTok, while Fenway Park, the beloved stadium of the Boston Red Sox and an iconic symbol of baseball, barely comes in at number 10. 

Despite these stadiums' historical significance and the immense popularity of each team, none of these venues excel at generating TikTok buzz. 

While success on the field often translates to popularity, the TikTok algorithm has a mind of its own when deciding which teams and stadiums gain traction. Creative content, memorable moments, and the ability to captivate and resonate with the TikTok community all play a role in raking in the views.

Closing Thoughts

On TikTok, stadiums have become popular destinations for sharing exciting moments and celebrating shared passions. From state-of-the-art arenas to fabled gems, these venues have captured the attention of fans and fostered a sense of community.  

While the popularity of teams and stadiums on TikTok may not always align perfectly, the platform's power lies in bringing people together and allowing them to express their pride and similar interests.
