Shell Energy Stadium is a multi-purpose stadium located in Houston, Texas, United States. It is home to Houston Dynamo FC of the Major League Soccer, the Houston Dash of the National Women's Soccer League, the Texas Southern Tigers football team, and the Houston Gamblers of the United Football League. Opened in May 2012, it is the first soccer-specific stadium built in a major American metropolitan downtown city. The stadium is the result of combined commitments of $35.5 million from the city of Houston and $60 million from the Houston Dynamo Football Club. Harris County agreed to pay for half of the land in exchange for the ability to jointly own the stadium after its completion date. The naming rights to the stadium were formerly held by BBVA USA; the name was changed to that of PNC Financial Services due to BBVA's acquisition by PNC. The stadium's naming rights have been owned by Shell Energy, whose American headquarters are based in Houston, since January 17, 2023. The stadium is located on a tract of land bordered by Texas, Walker, Emancipation, and Hutchins in East Downtown and east of Interstate 69/U.S. Route 59 and Downtown Houston.
