6. About The Venue
In the heart of downtown Baltimore lies M&T Bank Stadium, a
lively destination where young and old come to enjoy watching
the 2000 Superbowl Champion Ravens play, while also savoring
some of the city's best food (courtesy of Aramark).
The club level, with its spectacular field views and and ambience
that is filled with the energy of Champions, has been host to many
great events.
Through all of the events held at M&T Bank Stadium over the
years, there have been three things synonymous with the venue:
exclusive location, culinary excellence and top-rate service.
