The California Memorial Stadium is a well-known football arena, situated on the campus of the University of California, Berkeley, California. The stadium is also referred as the ‘Memorial Stadium’. The construction started in December 1922. The chief architects who designed this stadium are John Galen Howard, Baker & Carpenter and George E. Cunningham. An estimated amount of $321 million were spent on its construction. On 24th November 1923, the stadium was finally opened for spectators. It underwent a renovation on 1st September 2012 and developed into a beautiful structure as we see it today. The stadium has served as the home of the California Golden Bears of the NCAA from 1923 to 2010 and is again the home of the team since 2012. The Memorial Stadium was funded from public contributions for the Californians whose lives were claimed by World War I.
On 27th November 2006, the California Memorial Stadium was listed in the "National Register of Historic Places".
After the 2012 renovation, Matrix Turf was installed in the entire field of the stadium. The stadium is located directly above the Hayward Fault Zone.
