It also hosted four preliminary matches and one quarterfinal doubleheader in the 1999 Women's World Cup. During the July 2005 World Series of Football, D.C. United hosted Chelsea F.C. there; the stadium did not sell out, but the 31,473 spectators represented D.C. United's third-highest ever home. Numerous other events, including many big-time concerts took place at the venue as well.
The stadium has five levels including standard seating and three tiers of luxury suites.
