MyVenue named POS solution for F&B at State Farm Stadium

Stadium and arena point of sale (POS) specialists, MyVenue, have been selected by Craft Culinary Concepts as the POS solution for Food and Beverage at State Farm Stadium, the iconic, multi-purpose venue located in Glendale, Arizona, home of the Arizona Cardinals and annual Fiesta Bowl.

MyVenue will deploy its solution throughout the 60,000-seat world-class NFL stadium that will be the centre of the sporting universe when it plays host to Super Bowl LVII in 2023.

Jerry Reed, General Manager, Craft Culinary Concepts, said:

Following MyVenue’s fantastic support of our legacy NCR Quest system this NFL season we have signed off to transition completely to the MyVenue solution. This will include 480 POS terminals operating MyVenue’s mvPOS across premium, suites and concessions and their cloud based, event driven mvManager back-of-house platform.

Mitch Seidman, MyVenue’s Business Development Director, added:

MyVenue is thrilled to be partnering with Craft Culinary Concepts on this important project. The deployment will include all dashboards and redundancy protection we provide out-of-the-box with every installation.

Easy to use POS that can be quickly installed on existing hardware and our purpose-designed glidepath program, which minimises risk of disruption, means Craft Culinary Concepts can be confident to deliver continuous first-class service while realising the benefits of the MyVenue solution immediately.

About State Farm Stadium

Designed by New York architect Peter Eisenman in partnership with HOK Sports and Hunt Construction Group, State Farm Stadium is a prime example of sophisticated engineering, technology and design.

Home to the Arizona Cardinals Football Club (NFL), the annual Fiesta Bowl, and numerous other sports and entertainment events and activities, State Farm Stadium has garnered notable recognition in its brief history including being named ‘Event Site of the Year’ by Event Solutions Magazine in 2007, Best NFL Facility by Sports Business Journal and Sports Business Daily in 2006 and 2007, NFL’s best playing surface in 2008 and Best New Venue of the 2000s by SportsIllustrated.

Delivering a world-class experience for fans, event organisers and participants, the stadium’s innovative approach to sports facility design incorporates what was the first retractable natural grass playing surface in North America and the first completely retractable roof operating at an incline. The stadium’s exterior skin of shimmering metal panels reflects the shifting desert light while 21 vertical glass-walled slots incorporated into the building exterior offer fans inside the stadium outstanding views of the desert horizon.

Opened in 2006, the stadium offers outstanding, unobstructed views for 63,400 fans with the ability to expand to 73,000 for mega-events. The stadium has hosted two Super Bowls (NFL), two National College Football Championship games, and the 2017 NCAA Final Four Basketball Championship.

Encompassing over 1.7 million square feet of space, State Farm Stadium has numerous premium seating and space options including 88 lofts and 7,505 club seats.

State Farm Stadium is owned by the Arizona Sports & Tourism Authority (AZSTA) and operated by ASM Global.
