The Zions Bank Stadium is a football stadium in the US city of Herriman in the state of Utah . It was opened in April 2018 and can accommodate up to 5000 spectators. The Real Monarchs from the USL Championship and the Utah Warriors from Major League Rugby play their home games here.

The stadium is part of the 78 million US dollars expensive Zions Bank Real Academy, which the youth academy and the training grounds of Real Salt Lake from the Major League Soccer covers. It was originally supposed to open on March 31, 2018, but due to delays in construction, the opening did not take place until April. Real Salt Lake and Zions Bank signed a contract for the naming rights to the stadium in May 2017 .

The first sporting event at the stadium was a game between the Utah Warriors and Prairie Wolf Pack , which took place on April 20, 2018 and was attended by 3,143 spectators. The Real Monarchs played their first home game, a goalless draw against Las Vegas Lights FC , on April 30, 2018 in front of 4,065 spectators.

In June and July 2020, Zions Bank Stadium and Rio Tinto Stadium hosted the NWSL Challenge Cup , a special competition at the beginning of the 2020 season of the National Women's Soccer League , which had to be postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic . The preliminary round and the quarter-finals in the Zions Bank Stadium were played without spectators.
